00:00Not just in Binagyo, many of our countrymen have lost their homes and livelihoods in the past few days.

00:14Some are still living in pig cages or in tents.

00:20And there are some who are already moving out.

00:24Do they still have a problem with monthly payments like electricity?

00:29In response to the President's recommendation, the Energy Regulatory Commission or ERC suspended

00:35the termination of their electric bill from October to December

00:44if they are in areas under the State of Calamity.

00:49This includes not only residential but also non-residential consumers.

00:53If their consumption does not exceed 200 kWh per month,

00:59they will still pay for the consumption if there is one,

01:02but there should be a payment scheme where they can pay in installments

01:07within six months from the time the bill is issued.

01:12For those whose consumption exceeds 200 kWh per month,

01:16the distributor of electricity can issue a payment term that the consumer agrees to.

01:23In exchange, the distribution utilities will also be given a lighter way to pay

01:29to the power producers they pay to and others.

01:33This was discussed by some who were just waking up from the typhoon.

01:38I hope that even if it's just for a month, they will be able to recover.

01:44I hope that those who use electricity will also understand.
