00:00 Let's go back to the news about the widespread brownouts in Panay Island and other provinces.

00:05 Aside from the heat in houses and classrooms, many businesses stopped operations first and were damaged.

00:11 The situation there is being discussed live by John Sala of GMA Region TV.

00:16 One Western Besides. John.

00:18 Emil, but we show the widespread power outage.

00:24 Especially now, there are still many places in Panay Island that do not have electricity.

00:30 Some people in Iloilo endured the heat and the heat of the heat wave

00:37 while waiting for the supply of electricity to return last night.

00:40 But until now, there are still places that do not have electricity.

00:43 We are still waiting for our electricity to come back.

00:47 Especially if we are not expecting electricity, we will not be able to sleep.

00:57 In Megamay, there is an electric fan, but it is very cold. We do not have a blanket.

01:02 Many frozen products of Marites were damaged because the freezer was not working for 24 hours.

01:08 It is not clear if the blanket is okay or not. So far, it is still okay. It is just cold.

01:16 Johnny's stores were also damaged. He lost almost P30,000.

01:21 He also suffered a big blow last April.

01:24 We lost P100,000. I cannot understand why the run-out is so high.

01:33 According to the chairman of Iloilo Economic Development Foundation, Inc.,

01:37 the power outage has a big impact on business and commerce.

01:41 Aside from the lack of electricity, we are also affected by the internet and telecommunications.

01:48 So, our care for each business is also affected.

01:54 But aside from that, the province of Antique also lost electricity.

01:57 Calvary continues to be hot, especially for those who do not spend.

02:02 As of now, only 20% of the restored electricity supply is in the province.

02:06 In the province of Acla, the business is also affected even though the electricity supply in Isla de Buracay is stable.

02:12 Every tourism establishment has a generator set if the power outage in Isla de Buracay is experienced again.

02:19 In the latest update of Aquelco, only 33% of the supply is in the coverage area.

02:25 In Capiz, the business is still struggling to open even though it is brownout.

02:30 Only 10MW of electricity is restored, even though 45MW is needed.

02:36 While the electricity supply is still unstable,

02:45 some power distribution utilities will implement a temporary shutdown of the electricity supply in some areas here in Isla de Panay.

02:54 Emil?

02:55 Johnny, one question.

02:56 Is there any information if there is any help that can be received by businesses affected by the brownout?

03:01 As of now, there is no confirmed information from Iloilo City LGO or other local government units here in Isla de Panay

03:13 if there is any help that can be received by the affected businessmen.

03:16 But according to a business group here in Iloilo City,

03:19 they will continue to monitor and surveillance the updates,

03:23 including the supply of electricity, so that their members, stakeholders, and businessmen can be updated here in Iloilo City.

03:31 Emil?

03:32 Thank you very much, John Sala of GMA Regional TV, Juan Western Visayas.
