    Lessons learned from the financing of EDSA MRT 3 under a BLT payment scheme
    (2002-10) Tolentino, Jade Joy Therese C.; Bachoco, Jose B. II; Bautista, Socorro Gochoco
    This paper investigates the financial design in the carrying out of MRT Line-3, a BLT project whose risks are all transferred to the government. The research study reviews the financial planning aspects of the project and inspects the current financial condition of the MRT system. By examining financial projections for MRT, the paper brings to light the amount of financing role the government provides to sustain MRT's operations and viability. The bleak financial picture that all these will offer will justify the need to identify blunders from the past, and the corresponding lessons that may be valuable to the government in the funding of future mass transits.
