00:00 Let's go back to the news about the widespread brownouts in Panay Island and other provinces.
00:05 Aside from the heat in houses and classrooms, many businesses stopped operations first and were damaged.
00:11 The situation there is being discussed live by John Sala of GMA Region TV.
00:16 One Western Besides. John.
00:18 Emil, but we show the widespread power outage.
00:24 Especially now, there are still many places in Panay Island that do not have electricity.
00:30 Some people in Iloilo endured the heat and the heat of the heat wave
00:37 while waiting for the supply of electricity to return last night.
00:40 But until now, there are still places that do not have electricity.
00:43 We are still waiting for our electricity to come back.
00:47 Especially if we are not expecting electricity, we will not be able to sleep.
00:57 In Megamay, there is an electric fan, but it is very cold. We do not have a blanket.
01:02 Many frozen products of Marites were damaged because the freezer was not working for 24 hours.
01:08 It is not clear if the blanket is okay or not. So far, it is still okay. It is just cold.
01:16 Johnny's stores were also damaged. He lost almost P30,000.
01:21 He also suffered a big blow last April.
01:24 We lost P100,000. I cannot understand why the run-out is so high.
01:33 According to the chairman of Iloilo Economic Development Foundation, Inc.,
01:37 the power outage has a big impact on business and commerce.
01:41 Aside from the lack of electricity, we are also affected by the internet and telecommunications.
01:48 So, our care for each business is also affected.
01:54 But aside from that, the province of Antique also lost electricity.
01:57 Calvary continues to be hot, especially for those who do not spend.
02:02 As of now, only 20% of the restored electricity supply is in the province.
02:06 In the province of Acla, the business is also affected even though the electricity supply in Isla de Buracay is stable.
02:12 Every tourism establishment has a generator set if the power outage in Isla de Buracay is experienced again.
02:19 In the latest update of Aquelco, only 33% of the supply is in the coverage area.
02:25 In Capiz, the business is still struggling to open even though it is brownout.
02:30 Only 10MW of electricity is restored, even though 45MW is needed.
02:36 While the electricity supply is still unstable,
02:45 some power distribution utilities will implement a temporary shutdown of the electricity supply in some areas here in Isla de Panay.
02:54 Emil?
02:55 Johnny, one question.
02:56 Is there any information if there is any help that can be received by businesses affected by the brownout?
03:01 As of now, there is no confirmed information from Iloilo City LGO or other local government units here in Isla de Panay
03:13 if there is any help that can be received by the affected businessmen.
03:16 But according to a business group here in Iloilo City,
03:19 they will continue to monitor and surveillance the updates,
03:23 including the supply of electricity, so that their members, stakeholders, and businessmen can be updated here in Iloilo City.
03:31 Emil?
03:32 Thank you very much, John Sala of GMA Regional TV, Juan Western Visayas.
