agency as its beneficiary. See to it that you are able to translate your
respective project prospectus on the themes specified below.
With respect of your cashflow analysis and other financial requirements,
please consult with either Ms. Roxanne Matsuda or Mr. Arnel Aragon, both

technical writing and APC Marketing for APC profiling. Those with
experiences in proposal writing, please pitch in few tips in producing a
