Latest correspondences between President Museveni, Works Ministry and international broker Rosa Whitaker regarding the construction of the standard gauge railway by Chinese firm, China Harbor Engineering company, indicate that the original construction price was inflated from 8 billion US dollars to $11.4 billion.
But the Ministry of works Contracts committee has declined to award the contract to China Harbor Engineering Company. This after sources within the Ministry of Works leaked documents to legislators who now want the $8 billion dollar standard gauge railway construction blocked.
