"On the other hand, construction group Grupo Tribasa was the top decliner. Its shares fell 0.40 pesos, or 14.81 percent, to 2.30 pesos, while its American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) (NYSE:GTR - news) inched up a feeble 1/32 to 1/2 on Wall Street.

Market watchers attributed Tribasa's fall to the company's weak financial position and poor outlook despite having announced early this month that it was making progress on its debt restructuring program.

Bolivia says Mexico's Tribasa seeks to build roads
BUENOS AIRES, Oct 7 (Reuters) - Bolivia's government said Thursday Mexican construction firm Grupo Tribana (NYSE:GTR - news) has proposed to build at least $900 million in roads and be paid with natural gas.

''This is an incredibly interesting initiative,'' Bolivian Economic Development Jose Luis Lupo told reporters. ''We could create roads for $900 million or $1.0 billion a year using our gas without affecting our budget.''

''Our main flaw is our road infrastructure while gas is our most abundant natural resource,'' Lupo said.

Tribasa's representative Pablo Aguayo said that to carry out the proposal Tribasa could develop joint projects with U.S. energy company Enron Corp. (NYSE:ENE - news), which is the operator of Bolivia's whole oil and gas pipelines network.

Enron operates a fuel-oil fed electricity generation plant in Cuiaba, in the neighboring southern Brazilian state of Mato Grosso, and is building a gas pipeline from Bolivia to Cuiaba to feed it with natural gas instead of fuel-oil.

Bolivia is sitting on mammoth natural gas reserves and this year has started exporting it to giant Brazil.
