00:00 Manila has invested in a new water treatment plant

00:04 that is expected to help with the water supply in Metro Manila

00:07 and will reach the area in the middle of the El Niño.

00:10 This is the story of Bernard Ferrer.

00:12 50,000 customers of Manila Water Services Inc.

00:19 have been invested in a new modular water treatment plant

00:22 in Putatan, Muntinlupa.

00:24 Today, Laguna Lake Modular Treatment Plant was invested

00:27 that can produce 20 million liters per day

00:30 using water from Laguna Lake.

00:32 It uses state-of-the-art ceramic ultrafiltration or UF technology

00:37 that is more effective in removing dirt from raw water.

00:40 It is the first in the country to use water treatment.

00:43 The facility also uses other key global treatment technologies

00:47 like ceramic flat sheet membranes,

00:49 nano bubble technology, and sludge dewatering press.

00:53 With this help, water security in Metro Manila

00:57 is expected to be improved.

00:58 When it comes to water in Metro Manila in the middle of the El Niño,

01:02 Manila has an explanation.

01:04 As long as we are given a volume of 50 cubic meters per second,

01:10 we are sure that the normal water service will continue.

01:16 Manila is continuously calling on the public

01:19 to save water even though their supply has increased.

01:23 We hope that the daily routine

01:28 is still part of the responsible use of water

01:31 because the availability of water in our water supply system is not infinite.

01:38 Every drop of water is important,

01:40 so saving is needed, especially now that El Niño is in the country.
