00:00More than Php 1,000 rebate will be deducted from the bill for the water of some customers of Manila in Imus Cavite.

00:08Because of the low quality of the RIPO water that the company promised that it will not repeat.

00:14Maki Pulido was shocked.

00:20In December last year, some residents of Imus Cavite experienced a different smell and color of RIPO water.

00:27In the investigation of the MWSS Regulatory Office,

00:30the quality of the water samples in the Philippine National Standard for Drinking Water decreased.

00:35Residual chlorine that kills bacteria in water also came out lower than the standard.

00:41That's why the MWSS Regulatory Office fined Manila more than Php 3.9 million.

00:48It will divide more than 3,000 residents in the Shamna Barangay of Imus Cavite.

00:53Next month, some residents will receive a Php 1,122.37 rebate.

01:01This is an incentive for them to be more proactive and to invest in the pipe replacements.

01:06But until now, the dirty water in Ms. Zenaida Sasis' house is still a problem,

01:11as well as the high water bill.

01:13Why is the color of the water so dirty?

01:16It's really dirty. I even applied medicine on the derma.

01:19There's a smell.

01:21Huh?

01:22There's a smell.

01:23There's a smell.

01:24There's really a smell.

01:25According to Manila, they are just following the decision of the MWSS Regulatory Office.

01:29They insist that the problem should be solved immediately,

01:32and there are steps to be taken so that it won't happen again.

01:35Under the revised concession agreement,

01:37the obligation of water concessionaires like Manila and Manila Water is clear.

01:42The 24-hour supply of water should be abiso 2 days before the water service interruption

01:48and the water should be passed through the Philippine National Standard for Drinking Water.

01:52If the water concessionaire pays the water bill within 15 days,

01:56this is not in compliance with his service obligation.

01:59It's only 3 days if there's a risk to the public's health,

02:02for example, if the quality of the water drops.

02:05The MWSS Regulatory Office urges the public to email them

02:09if there's a problem with the quality and supply of their water so that it can be investigated.

02:14For GMA Integrated News, Macky Pulido, for Tutok, 24 Hours.
