mentioned in Feasibility Study report, due to missing equipment. CCCC however
confirmed that this missing data did not compromise on the quality of Feasibility

Ahmed as a gesture of cooperation and cordial relationship with GPA, offered to
make some deduction against this item from the invoices.

officially in files and cannot be reversed. The Project Manager TCI stated that had
