00:00In the continuation of the decrease or increase of the Peso Contra Doliar that is affected by the shortage of water,

00:06the target of MWSS is to implement the Foreign Currency Differential Adjustment

00:11in order to return the lost money to the consumers.

00:15This is Clayson Fardilia in the Detail.

00:20The consumption and expenses of water are also being estimated.

00:24Of course, our monthly payment will only reach P240 or P230.

00:34Of course, we don't have money to pay for it. Life is hard.

00:37That's why it's controlled.

00:39But in October, it is possible that the amount of water in Erinia's water will change.

00:45The target is to implement the Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System Regulatory Office,

00:51the Foreign Currency Differential Adjustment,

00:54The FCDA is a mechanism to correct the increase or decrease of the Peso Contra Doliar

01:01that is affected by the shortage of water.

01:04Consumers are the ones who pay for the projects borrowed by water concessionaires

01:09in order to improve the supply of sufficient and clean water.

01:13With the help of the FCDA, the lost money will be returned to the concessionaires

01:19due to the increase of Peso Contra Doliar

01:22or it is possible for consumers to recover from the shortage.

01:26This will not automatically result in an increase in the water bill.

01:30This can also result in a rollback.

01:32If the Peso is lower, the water bill can increase.

01:38If the Peso is higher, there can be a rollback of the price.

01:43I don't think the effect will be that significant.

01:48Based on the information obtained by PTV,

01:50the FCDA has already submitted an additional estimate for Manila.

01:55Meanwhile, Manila Water is still waiting for the MWSS guidelines to be completed.

02:01The MWSS said,

02:05there will be no additional increase in the consumption of 10 cubic meters below.

02:10If the FCDA reaches 10% of the basic charge,

02:15it is possible for the concessionaires to ask the customers for up to two years.

02:21But for Erinia,

02:23the loss in the business of the concessionaires should not be passed on to the consumers.

02:29That's why she insisted.

02:30Why are they asking us for more?

02:32People are already saving.

02:36It's like they will be able to pay a small amount of water.

02:39Why are they asking us for more?

02:41The FCDA is already discussing and is currently conducting a consultation.
