Mga higala! The renovations for the unutilized Cagayan de Oro City International Convention Center, a pet project of ex-Senator Nene Pimentel in Brgy. Indahag, is now at 88% according to DPWH.
ICYDK, this was built in 2003 and was delayed for over 15 years due to various issues. As of now, the government has spent an estimated P984 million for this convention center.
