Malay Water District General Manager Rei Bernardo was
grilled in the Sangguniang Bayan of Malay due to water supply problem in Sitio.
Tabon Bukid in Brgy. Caticlan.
On the 11th SB Session of Malay last Tuesday,
Bernardo was invited to explain the long due problem of the residents
concerning the water supply in the area.
According to Bernardo, “there is a problem with the water
line and its main source making it difficult for them to supply water in to high
areas of Sitio Tabon”.
On the other hand he said that they are doing steps to
restore the normal water supply for the residents.
Unfortunately, the council is becoming impatient on the
slow action of Malay Water District to the problem.
Meanwhile, SB Malay appeals to Bernardo to coordinate
with the Boracay Island Water Company (BIWC) to temporarily supply the water needs
of to residents, while they are fixing the problem.
Also noted that the BIWC is willing to supply water to
Tabon residents but they are still waiting for the approval of their partner,
the Tourism Infrastructure and Enterprise Zone Authority (TIEZA).
The Sangguniang Bayan of Malay is hurriedly working to
give water supply to Tabon residents because of the upcoming Summer Season, especially
that many of the residents are getting sick due to lack of water supply.
