SMRT, LTA unit part of group that wins Metro Manila deal
SingTel-linked Globe Telecom also in AF Consortium
TWO Singapore companies are in the consortium which won Monday's public bidding to develop and run a fare-collection system for Metro Manila's rail system.
Temasek-linked SMRT Corporation and MSI Global Pte Ltd, a unit of Singapore's Land Transport Authority (LTA), are expected to bring their respective areas of expertise and resources to the table for the AF Consortium.
