The Makati Business Club has thrown its support behind President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.’s decision to issue a new executive order for the creation of the proposed Water Resources Management Office to boost water supply across the country.
Of the 54.8 percent who had access to safe water supply, only 15 percent to a piped distribution network, and 11.2 percent relied on communal faucet systems, MBC noted. Further, MBC said the situation is expected to reach “critical levels” by 2040 if the sector remains “stagnant.” Likewise, the European Chamber of Commerce of the Philippines said in a statement last week it welcomes the creation of the WRMO as a transitory body pending the creation of a Water Resource Department.
