Your request You asked for Copies of Philippine Government Contracts with China. Response to your request While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance this Office does not have the information you have requested.

Upon evaluation of your request, bearing in mind that the DOF is the repository of all loan agreements, permission to access the subject loan agreement must, therefore, be obtained from the DOF and BOC.
