Lifeline rate discounts for marginalized households
The Manila Electric Company has ramped up the conduct of barangay caravans in different cities and provinces within its franchise area to encourage more beneficiaries of the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program and other qualified marginalized households to apply for the lifeline rate program so that they can get discounts on their electricity bills. Starting September 2023, only customers with approved applications will continue to enjoy the discount in accordance with the implementing rules and regulations of Republic Act 11552 or the law extending and enhancing the implementation of the lifeline rate. Beyond information campaigns that started as early as April, Meralco has also been conducting on-site applications for qualified customers so that they can immediately benefit from the program. Meralco vice president and head of corporate communications Joe R. Zaldarriaga said the power distributor is looking for ways to encourage more customers to apply for the lifeline rate program. “While we have already engaged all local social welfare development offices or SWDOs in our franchise area, we will continue to reach out to more customers and we hope that the onsite applications will lead to the increase in the number of program beneficiaries,” he said. For this month, Meralco has lined up onsite applications and caravans in the cities of Caloocan, Las Piñas, Manila, Parañaque, Quezon and Valenzuela. Outside of Metro Manila, Meralco will also do the same in San Rafael and Meycauayan in Bulacan, San Pablo City in Laguna, General Mariano Alvarez and General Trias in Cavite, Taytay and Rodriguez in Rizal and Mauban and Sariaya in Quezon. Under the lifeline rate program, qualified customers should have a monthly electricity consumption of 100 kilowatt hours or below to avail of the discount ranging from 20 percent to 100 percent in their Meralco electricity bills depending on their actual consumption. Eligible customers can still apply by visiting the nearest Meralco Business Center, together with their completed application form, latest electricity bill and 4Ps ID. Non-4Ps beneficiaries may present a local SWDO certification and government ID. Applicants can also take advantage of the dedicated lanes for the lifeline rate program applications. “We are calling on all our qualified customers to take advantage of our caravans and apply for the program so that they can continue to benefit from the discount. Rest assured that Meralco will immediately process the applications and continue our information and education campaigns to bring in more customers to the program,” said Zaldarriaga.

Pursuing sustainable dev’t, food security
Asia is the world's largest rice consumer, accounting for 90 percent of global rice consumption. According to a business website that made use of data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Foreign Agricultural Service, the Philippines is among the top 20 countries with the highest rice consumption per capita. Data shows that the country's almost 113 million population consumes around 16.50 million metric tons of rice every year. The affordability and availability of rice have been cited as the primary reasons for Filipinos' penchant for eating rice. Thus, the proliferation of restaurants in the country serving "unlimited rice" has always been a fool-proof marketing strategy to entice customers. India's announcement in July that it would restrict the export of non-basmati rice has jolted not just the country but the global rice market. India is the world's largest rice exporter, accounting for over 40 percent of the global rice trade. It is on this note that I am calling for stronger government interventions in the agricultural sector. Unfortunately, India's decision comes at a time when the country is grappling with flooded rice fields as a result of recent calamities. But we cannot blame India for its decision to prioritize its domestic market. We have to be prepared as this could trigger a rice crisis affecting millions of Filipinos who consider rice a staple food. It is high time that we provide our local farmers with much-needed support to boost domestic rice production by offering them drought-resistant rice seeds, more fertilizers, additional irrigation, increased training, and easy access to credit facilities with low-interest rates. Our government must focus on short-term remedies such as exploring alternative sources like Vietnam and Thailand. But more importantly, we must implement long-term interventions that will lead to sustainable rice production. I have always been an advocate of sustainability and self-sufficiency to achieve food security which is a top priority of the current administration. Meanwhile, I have remained committed to visiting various parts of the country, not only to provide assistance but also to address the concerns of our people. On 5 August, we attended the blessing and ribbon-cutting ceremony of the two-storey Malasakit Center Building at Cotabato Regional and Medical Center in Cotabato City. We aided 647 patients and 2,535 medical frontliners including security guards, utilities, and other hospital staff. Meanwhile, qualified beneficiaries were given financial assistance from the Department of Social Welfare and Development. Joining us were CRMC Chief of the Hospital, Dr. Ishmael Dimaren, Maguindanao del Norte Rep. Bai Dimple Mastura, Matnog Mayor Zohria Bansel-Guro, Sultan Kudarat Mayor Tucao Mastura, and Vice Mayor Shameem Mastura. We also participated in the inauguration of the new Super Health Center (SHC) in the town of Libungan, where we assisted 1,000 indigent beneficiaries together with Vice Governor Efren Piñol, former vice governor Shirlyn Macasarte, Mayor Angel Rose Cuan and Vice Mayor Jims Fullecido. At the invitation of Mayor Angel Rose Cuan, we attended the town's Inter-Barangay Basketball Championship as part of its 62nd Founding Anniversary and 8th Katambolit Festival. We then headed to Midsayap to attend the groundbreaking of the SHC and assist 1,000 struggling residents together with Rep. Samantha Santos, Vice Gov. Efren Piñol, Mayor Rolando Sacdalan, and Vice Mayor Vivencio Deomampo Jr. On 4 August, we witnessed the groundbreaking of the SHC to be built in Monkayo, Davao de Oro. We visited the construction and renovation of the public market funded through our efforts. We also distributed assistance to 1,000 indigents in the area accompanied by Congresswoman Maria Carmen Zamora, Vice Governor Jayvee Uy, and Board Member Herv Apsay, among others. On 3 August, we were in Batangas to witness the groundbreaking of the Batangas Provincial Medical Center (New Provincial Hospital) in the municipality of Tuy. We also led the distribution of aid to 1,700 residents, with the support of Governor Dodo Mandanas. We were joined by Vice Gov. Mark Leviste, Congressmen Eric Buhain and Ray Reyes, Tuy Mayor Jose Jecerell Cerrado, San Luis Mayor Oscar Lito Hernandez, Vice Mayor Maan de Gracia, Lian Vice Mayor Ronin Leviste, and other local officials. We then went to Davao City to attend the 1st General Assembly of the Philippine Councilors League-Occidental Mindoro. On 2 August, we visited Caloocan City and witnessed the groundbreaking of the SHC, along with Health Secretary Ted Herbosa, Congresswoman Mitch Cajayon-Uy, Congressman Oca Malapitan, Mayor Along Malapitan, and Vice Mayor Karina Teh. We distributed aid to 980 impoverished residents in collaboration with the offices of Cong. Cajayon-Uy, Councilor Ed Aruelo, and Councilor Wewel De Leon. For those affected by Typhoon Egay, we distributed food packs and assisted 5,000 beneficiaries in Minalin, Arayat, and various towns in Pampanga; 500 in Bauang, La Union; 700 in Calumpit, and 1,700 residents from Hagonoy, Guiguinto, and San Miguel in Bulacan; 900 in Dagupan City, San Fabian, and Calasiao in Pangasinan; 200 in Binangonan, Rizal; and 200 in San Antonio, Zambales. We also assisted 89 fire victims in various barangays in Bacolod City, Negros Occidental. We also provided help to 1,200 impoverished residents of Cabanatuan City, Nueva Ecija; 1,049 in San Pedro City, Laguna; 800 in Tabaco City, Albay; and 67 more in Pulupandan, Negros Occidental. We also helped people in Bulacan, including 66 in Santa Maria, 66 in Paombong, 66 in Baliwag, 66 in Bustos, 66 in Obando, and 66 in Norzagaray. In Batangas, we also assisted 500 beneficiaries from Calaca, 400 in Tanauan City, and 57 more in Batangas City.

Indefinite water cuts loom, Maynilad says
The scheduled water service interruptions across more than half a million households supplied by west zone concessionaire Maynilad Water Services Inc. will be indefinite due to the depleting water supply as El Niño hits. At a press briefing on Monday, Maynilad Water Supply Operations Head Ronald Padua confirmed that service disruptions, which will last for nine to 11 hours, or between 7 p.m. and 4 a.m. or 6 a.m., will start on Wednesday, 12 July. The affected areas are the cities of Manila, Caloocan, Malabon, Navotas, Valenzuela and Quezon City. “I cannot answer yet the question about when we will experience these interruptions. Hopefully, there will be some rain at the Ipo watershed,” Padua told reporters. “Ipo dam has only a small storage capacity. Even if the release from Angat Dam is low, when there are local rains in the region, the water level rises and it helps divert water to Metro Manila,” he said. Padua said Maynilad did not consider the adverse effects of El Niño in its latest business plan due to the delayed announcement by the weather bureau. “Our latest business plan included assumptions that normal water will arrive for us. Our anticipation also takes into account the PAGASA forecast so if there is no forecast, we will not anticipate it. But we assure you that all this is being talked about,” Padua explained. To mitigate the impact of the interruptions, Maynilad vowed to fast-track the completion of its water augmentation projects. Among other things, Padua said Maynilad targets to complete more than 60 deep wells across its service area. Due to the depleting Angat Dam, whose water elevation fell below the 180-meter minimum operating level last weekend, the National Water Resources Board allocated only 48 cubic meters per second or cms for water concessionaires starting 8 July. The water share was lower than the 52 cms released from 16 April to 30 June, and the 50 cms from 1 to 7 July. Thus, Maynilad has been getting less supply than it needs to maintain normal service levels. The Water Resources Management Office or WRMO of the Department of Environment and National Resources on Sunday issued Bulletin No. 2 to all barangay officials and condominium and subdivision managers in the National Capital Region to advise residents to cut down on activities that consume large amounts of water, such as watering lawns and washing vehicles. The order came after the water in Angat Dam dipped to a critical level. The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration had reported a significant drop in Angat’s water level since Friday. The decline, it said, averaged more than 0.40 meters daily as it further fell to 1.79.56 meters or .56 meters below its normal operating capacity. The WRMO advisory aims to raise awareness about the importance of water conservation and encourage residents to reduce water usage where possible. “As we prepare for even drier conditions due to El Niño, it is more than ever important to conserve water in order to prevent massive interruptions later this year,” the WRMO bulletin said. Residents, it added, should practice rainwater collection for non-potable use of water, and to reuse laundry and dishwashing water to water plants. All government agencies have also been directed to conserve water in their respective offices while local government units in Metro Manila were told to hasten pipe repairs of water concessionaires Manila Water and Maynilad.

Stricter rules bind water firms in revised deals
Water concessionaires — Maynilad Water Services Inc. and Manila Water Company Inc. — will be governed by stricter rules under the amendment concession agreement with the government. Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System Regulatory Office chief regulator Patrick Lester said the recently signed revised rules provided more stringent provisions to deliver better services to consumers. “Now the penalties for missing their service obligations will be bigger, unlike before. Their obligations used to be limited but now, non-revenue services are included,” Ty said in an interview with reporters on Wednesday. “Within the year, if they do not reach their targets based on the approved business plan, we can penalize them as well,” he added. Maynilad and Manila Water’s obligations include providing an uninterrupted usable water supply to consumers. Previously, the MWSS RO did not penalize the concessionaires’ non-revenue service failures. Ty, however, reiterated that changes are needed “to better serve the customers and make sure that the concessionaires are doing their jobs.” As stated in the new agreement, failure to meet any obligation for more than 15 days, or 3 days, in cases where public welfare is affected, can be a basis for the MWSS RO to impose financial penalties. In return, any penalized concessionaire needs to pay their duties within 10 days after receipt of demand from the MWSS RO. Ty noted that any penalties collected from the concessionaires will be distributed to consumers in the form of rebates. In case the concessionaires fail to follow the amended guidelines and maintain their obligations, Ty stressed that the MWSS RO has the option to get a third party to do the works of the concessionaires. Likewise, they may also recommend that the concession agreement be further improvised. Compliance assured In separate statements, both Maynilad and Manila Water vowed to comply with the directives of the MWSS RO. “We support the MWSS’s initiatives to improve our service to our customers. We have been in discussions with the MWSS Regulatory Office to fine-tune the Implementing Rules and Regulations to ensure these are under the terms of the Revised Concession Agreement,” Maynilad said. Meanwhile, Manila Water noted that the company has yet to receive the official notice from MWSS RO about the penalties, but it committed to abide by any directive issued by the regulator. Maynilad is the largest private water concessionaire in the country in terms of customer base. It is the concessionaire or the West Zone of the Greater Manila Area, which is composed of the cities of Manila, Quezon City, Makati, Caloocan, Pasay, Parañaque, Las Piñas, Muntinlupa, Valenzuela, Navotas and Malabon all in Metro Manila; the cities of Cavite, Bacoor, and Imus, and the towns of Kawit, Noveleta, and Rosario, all in Cavite province. The Manila Water, on the other hand, provides service to about 23 cities and municipalities, including Makati, Mandaluyong, Pasig, Pateros, San Juan, Taguig, Marikina, most parts of Quezon City, portions of Manila as well as 14 towns of Rizal province.

DENR urges young Filipinos: Be active on climate change
Environment Secretary Antonia Loyzaga called on young Filipinos last Monday to take an active role in crafting solutions to the ongoing climate crisis. In a statement, Loyzaga said she also issued the call during an event held at the DENR Central Office in Quezon City last week, as part of the agency’s Earth Day celebration with the theme “Invest in our Planet, Invest in our Youth.” Over 150 high school and college students as well as teachers from Metro Manila attended the event organized by the department. “We are in the middle of an emergency, and that is the climate crisis. What we need to do with you, the youth, is to become part of the solution,” Loyzaga told the participants. “Every fraction of every degree counts and we all need to work together to prevent even that fraction of a degree of increase, in terms of our temperatures,” she added. The activity was aimed at raising awareness, understanding, commitment and action on environmental stewardship among the youth. Loyzaga underscored the importance of participation, “as we all have the ability to make a difference and influence our country’s fight against the impacts of climate change and the degradation of our environment.” DENR Chief of Staff and Supervising Undersecretary for Strategic Communications Marilou Erni said the event served as an avenue to gather insights from young people in terms of the environmental issues and challenges they face in their communities. The participating schools and organizations included the Association of Science and Mathematics Educators of Philippine Private Schools, Oscar M. Alcaraz Community Scout, Brighton Ventures, Marikina Polytechnic University, St. Clare College of Caloocan, National College of Business and Arts, STI College, University of the Philippines — Diliman, Polytechnic University of the Philipines, Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila, Universidad de Manila, Cagayan State University, New Era University, Quirino High School, Bagong Silang High School, West Fairview High School, North Fairview High School, Mother of Perpetual Help School, Immaculate Concepcion Academy, Ramon Magsaysay High School, South East Asia Institute of Trade and Technology, and Krus na Ligas High School. Over 150 high school and college students as well as teachers from Metro Manila attended the event organized by the department. During the event, the DENR held a visual communication workshop where participants showcased their vision of a livable environment and the significant ways to achieve that vision through a poster-making contest. Teachers were also given a platform to share their hopes for DENR, so that the agency could further improve its current environmental programs and initiatives. The participants listened to young leaders from the DENR as they shared the agency’s priority programs such as Clean Water, Clean Air, National Greening Program, Biodiversity Conservation, Coastal Marine Ecosystem and Solid Waste Management. The speakers encouraged the participants to consider a career in the sciences and be part of government service in the future. Erni said the DENR plans to continue holding youth-centered programs, including collaborating with the Department of Education and the Commission on Higher Education, for more strategic partnerships that will go beyond awareness and lead to translating this understanding and commitment into action. Earth Day is celebrated in the Philippines every 22 April in accordance with Proclamation No. 1481 signed in 2008 by then President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo. Earth Day was first celebrated in 1970 in the United States and was globally recognized in 1990.

PayMaya enables over 50 government agencies
Digital financial services provider PayMaya has enabled over 50 government agencies to streamline their services and accept cashless payments online todate. From June 2019 to June 2020, the volume of transactions processed by PayMaya from partner government agencies surged 900 per cent. This shows the government efforts to encourage digital payments for fees and services by accepting debit, credit, and e-Wallet payments has paid off. “In the span of one year, government agencies have stepped up their efforts in digitalizing their processes,” according to Orlando B. Vea, Founder and CEO of PayMaya. Because of this, many agencies have been able to continue offering relevant services despite the current crisis, he added. To date, PayMaya has already inked partnerships with the Social Security System (SSS), Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR), Home Development Mutual Fund (HDMF) or PAG-IBIG, the Department of Trade and Industry, the Department of Foreign Affairs, the Department of Science and Technology, the Bureau of Customs, the Bureau of the Treasury through the Bonds.ph platform, the Department of Agriculture’s Agricultural Credit Policy Council, the Professional Regulation Commission, the Tourism Infrastructure and Enterprise Zone Authority (TIEZA), and the National Home Mortgage Finance Corporation (NHMFC), among others. As part of measures needed to be observed in the ‘new normal’, PayMaya intends to enable more government agencies, institutions, and local government units to accept cashless payments and digital disbursements. Hence, PayMaya has launched its LGUs Embracing and Accelerating Digitalization (L.E.A.D.) program to help local governments offer digital transactions for constituents. The company likewise enabled digital disbursements for the cities of Manila, Mandaluyong, Caloocan, Pasig, and Quezon City, particularly in delivering financial aid to beneficiaries severely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. SSS and the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) also tapped Paymaya to distribute financial aid to beneficiaries of its Small Business Wage Subsidy (SBWS) and Social Amelioration Program (SAP). Furthermore, it has powered the digital payment facilities of LGUs such as Valenzuela and Taguig. Through its app and wallet, PayMaya provides millions of Filipinos with the fastest way to own a financial account with over 40,000 Add Money touchpoints nationwide, more than double the total number of traditional bank branches in the Philippines combined. Its Smart Padala by PayMaya network of over 30,000 partner touchpoints nationwide serves as last mile digital financial hubs in communities, providing the unbanked and underserved with access to services. .....»»
