A Dinner to Discuss the Next Step for the Theory of Constraints Program

On August 21, 2007, a dinner at Patio Alejandra was sponsored by Engr. Christine Milagros A. Orbe of the Iligan City Waterworks System (ICWS).   The dinner was sort of a venue for an informal discussion about the two-year program offered by InWEnt, Germany to the City of Iligan.
