00:00 Because of the sudden increase of electric bills,

00:04 Judith's due date for electricity payment is now a joke.

00:10 It's possible that it will continue until June.

00:13 Some provinces are seriously studying the installment of electricity bill.

00:18 What if, in my opinion, Maki Polido is right?

00:21 [Music]

00:23 [Screaming]

00:25 Wait for it.

00:27 [Screaming]

00:29 This is Hazel Achica's entry in #MiralkoBillReveal.

00:33 Because the usual 11,000 pesos of Miralko Bill has reached 16,000 this month.

00:40 This is how the Miralko Bill Reveal of these neighbors in Quezon City.

00:46 Show the receipt.

00:49 You know, to him, how much you received, he will be surprised.

00:53 He will say, "Why did you buy from me?"

00:55 Then he will ask, "Where did you get this?"

00:57 [Laughter]

00:59 The problem is being hidden by Judith, or Judy, of Miralko Bill.

01:04 They are also hiding their bad intentions because of the high cost of food and other expenses.

01:09 Where else will they get payment from Judith?

01:12 It's really Judith.

01:14 [Laughter]

01:15 Not Marites, Judith.

01:17 [Laughter]

01:18 The concern of the Philippine Rural Electric Cooperatives, Inc.

01:21 may not pass through the province's borders their anger at the rising electricity bill.

01:27 In the group's survey, 31 cooperatives said there is a rising electricity bill.

01:32 Region 6 or Western Visayas and Region 1 or Ilocos Region are the most affected.

01:37 They are just distributors of electricity, collectors, and remitters.

01:41 We are just worried because the consumers don't understand.

01:44 Some electric cooperatives are studying the installment plan for the poor.

01:49 But Miralko customers don't expect this.

01:52 They need to pay immediately because they will pay their suppliers.

01:57 The electricity has been consumed.

02:00 For us, it's postpaid.

02:03 You consume first before customers pay.

02:07 In the rise of May's electricity, the transmission charge, taxes, and others increased.

02:13 But the most severe is the generation charge.

02:15 This is what distributors like Miralko and electric cooperatives bought to supply electricity.

02:22 In April, they bought expensive electricity from the Wholesale Electricity Spot Market or WESEN.

02:27 The price of electricity increased because there were damaged plants

02:31 that caused a shortage of supply during the time when many people used electricity because it was too hot.

02:36 The electricity price in Visayas increased by 53 percent and 11 percent in Luzon.

02:42 All of this will be paid by consumers.

02:46 But it seems that this month of the rise of electricity will not end.

02:49 The Energy Regulatory Commission allowed the shortage of 30 percent of electricity plants

02:55 that sold reserve power last March.

02:58 The ERC suspended the payment because the sale is expensive and it will affect the generation charge.

03:04 The ERC asked for an explanation on why the price is like that.

03:08 The ERC said it will be affected by the June electric bill.

03:11 But the agency cannot say how much.

03:14 Besides that, Miralko said that if there is a shortage of electricity supply,

03:19 it may also affect their generation charge.

03:23 There is still going to be that pressure for prices obviously, particularly in the spot market to go up.

03:29 For GMA Integrated News, Macky Pulido, for 24 Hours.
