and airports countrywide.
According to the bulletin of the Ministry of
Public Works, Services and Housing, the
public investment of the General Budget of
the State 2010 is of US 1.80 billion, and
787.4 million of the total will be assigned
to infrastructure, specifically roads.
Of the total amount for state investment,
32.6 percent will be allocated to the
productive sector, 43.6 percent to
infrastructure, 19 percent to the social
sector and 5 percent to the remaining

to the President of the Bolivian Highway
Administration (ABC) Luis Sanchez so that
relevant entities carry out the maintenance
