Dear SUSTRAN members,

their office in Sri Lanka and transferring their remaining work with staff
to the newly established Janathakshan, who will take on the task to continue
the legacy of Practical Action in Sri Lanka and in the region. 
  
Janathakshan is finding a suitable consultant from persons who are willing
to submit their CVs under Janathakshan, in a joint bid to be made to a
private sector civil engineering based organization famous for
infrastructure Development in Sri Lanka and neighboring countries (to do
government contracts). They are looking for expertise on strategic city
development planning, road network development, planning and building
related infrastructure bridges, culverts etc. Persons should have exposure
and experience in the Asian region especially worked in the developed
countries in the region e.g. Singapore, Malaysia, Korea Thailand etc.
Consultants should quote their rates and they will be informed fully about
the details of the bidder and the bid before submitting it. If Janathakshan
wins the bid, the initial assignment is for 6 weeks of developing a
strategic plan, with a potential of further extension.
