00:00We will talk to the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines and GCP Public Relations Officer Trish Roque. Good morning Trish.
00:14Good morning Igan and good morning to our viewers.
00:19How many places are left without electricity supply?
00:23As of now, Igan, there are only 6 places that are left without transmission services.
00:34These are the areas of Batangas, Camarines Sur, Albay and parts of Eastern Samar and Lete.
00:42So there are a lot of places that are left without electricity supply?
00:45You're right Igan. Yesterday, there were a lot of places that were restored.
00:52These 6 lines are still being repaired and ongoing assessments and restoration efforts are being carried out in these areas.
01:06What happened? Did the trees fall? Your posts?
01:10Some of them, Igan, because of the wind, the trees fell.
01:18Some of them, while the area is clear, our line personnel could not reach them because of the flood.
01:28Our line personnel had to ride a boat to see the damage in those areas.
01:38Trish, until when are our countrymen expected to get their electricity back to normal?
01:45Igan, we cannot give an exact date or time, but rest assured that as soon as possible and these areas are accessible...
01:56Flood. Your problem is flood.
01:58Yes. That's right. Flood is our big problem.
02:02But as soon as it's accessible, we will restore the transmission services in these areas.
02:10Okay. Thank you very much. Take care Trish Roque, public relations officer of NGCP.
02:15Thank you. Good morning.
