Mass housing firm to bring in foreign and local partners

MASS housing developer 8990 Holdings Inc. plans to bring in foreign and local partners to its soon-to-be established cable and internet subsidiary—tentatively named 8990icable—which will provide cable internet and telephone connectivity to some 40,000 home buyers.

“We’re talking to several interested parties to partner with, including one foreign. Nothing has been formed yet as discussions have brought about more options, all interesting and worth studying,” 8990 President Jesus Januario Atencio told The Manila Times over the weekend.
