The reason for the brownouts in the philippines is because there is not enough power sources, Private companies here have already warned us there might be blackouts here. I cant see it though because they have hiked the prices up that much people wont be able to afford to use it.

I'll answer it for you ....The Government are charging top dollar for a 3rd rate service. ..there's no incentive to bring the system upto speed like their modern neighbours ...They can just keep on shafting their own people without a care in the world.

If it were privatised, sold off to numerous outfits, that nonsense situation would all change overnight.

They (Phils govt.) also fell out with Westinghouse, who were building them a shiny new power station back in the 90s. I believe that never came to fruition.

If they did privatise it they would be paying more just like we are now.

They are already paying UK rates!!! for a service what isn't worth a bean...Jeez man!

These people can't pay any more ....Their daily wage is to put food on the table, that's it...no spare cash for their Government to extract. You wanna know about living on the edge, you going to the right place
