00:00Your water is being surrounded but our countrymen have no clean supply of it.

00:05Despite the proposed solution in the sectoral meeting with the President,

00:09the possible leak in the sea water, that's what I'm aiming for.

00:17If whenever you need water, you get it from a well or a well,

00:21you're luckier than the 40 million Filipinos who, until now,

00:25don't have a formal water supply and rely on wells, ditches, and sewage.

00:31We have roughly around 7,600 plus islands,

00:35but not many people know that 5,500 of those are small islands.

00:41And many of these small islands do have communities, mostly fisherfolks,

00:46and each and every one of those do not have access to water.

00:50President Bongbong Marcos assigned them to the Water Resources Management Office

00:54under the DNR in Pulong, Malacanang earlier.

00:57Because many of those communities are in small islands

01:00like Samora Autonomous Region in Muslim in the Now or BARMM,

01:04desalination or the process of filtering salt water to make it a clean drinking water

01:09is the immediate solution.

01:12Modular or small desalination systems are planned to be brought

01:16to the 65-island barangays that were prioritized.

01:19Currently, the DNR is talking to suppliers from Israel, Netherlands, or Singapore for this.

01:25We have what are called as modular desalination systems.

01:30It's as big as a container van.

01:32It can provide water to up to around 500 families in each and every desalination plant.

01:43It depends on how many people will be serviced but roughly 5 to 8 million pesos per plant.

01:50For the upcoming rainy season,

01:52the Department of Public Works and Highways in Pulong

01:56presented their plans to meet the needs of the local government.

02:00The President agreed to collect excess water and use it during the dry season.

02:07In many of the flood control projects that we'll be implementing,

02:11we will have to coordinate with the National Irrigation Administration

02:14or the Water Supply for structures or water impounding dumps to be specific

02:25that will be integrated into the flood control programs that the department will be undertaking.

02:31For GMA Integrated News, Ivan Mejrina for 24 Hours.
