International Container Terminal Services Inc. and Alliance Global Group Inc. denied that there is any dispute between the two groups over the planned construction of a mega vaccination center on land owned by Nayong Pilipino at the Entertainment City.
Allegations against the project include claims that it will cut down trees and that a casino will be built on the property. Both AGI and ICTSI’s Razon group own casino businesses.
The ICTSI Foundation submitted an unsolicited proposal to the government last March to build a temporary mega vaccination center in aid of the government’s goal to inoculate as many Filipinos as possible to curb the further spread of the COVID-19 pandemic and to achieve herd immunity by yearend.
