AWM Infrastucture

8 BUSINESS VIEW CARIBBEAN VOLUME 9, ISSUE 9 AWM INFRASTRUCTURE is feeling optimistic, noting, “I am investing in the movement here from Santa Martha to Barcadera with my asphalt plant and workshop. I wouldn’t do that if I didn’t have any confidence in how the future would go here on the island. I’m confident in the economy, the way tourism picks up. We need to have the confidence to get this island further growing.” Admitting a passion for the work that he does, Bijen shares a final thought, “I’ve been around now for 18 years and obviously I still like it, otherwise I wouldn’t be. I take care of the people, my staff, and doing the jobs as the client wants, and finishing the projects on time within the budget. It’s all the standard stuff on a small island where you continuously have to adapt to the situation but that really gives you the satisfaction that you’re looking for.”
