The following is the latest posting of Eli Obligacion on his blog regarding the latest news on the sad situation of power sources for our beloved province, just in case you missed it. This topic is so important in the survival of our province. I hope you voiced your concerns to our provincial officials, so that they will give this problem the highest priority in their agenda and projects for the province.
MARINDUQUE ENERGY SUMMIT
To formulate policies and implementing tools for short and long-term solutions to the power crisis that Marinduque is experiencing now, a Multi-Stakeholder Summit on Energy will be held on October 9-10, 2009, at the Marinduque State College (MSC) Covered Court in Boac, Marinduque. The summit is organized by the Provincial Government of Marinduque through the Sangguniang Panlalawigan.
The forum includes a presentation of the Current Situation by MARELCO, Napocor and 3i Powergen and "Presentation of Solution to the Problem" by speakers from the National Electrification Administration (NEA), Cooperative Development Authority (CDA), Department of Energy (DOE) and National Power Corporation (NPC). Also invited are Gov. Jose Antonio Carrion and Congresswoman Carmencita Reyes.
Meanwhile, a mass rally participated in by multi-sectoral groups is set on Monday, October 12, 2009, in front of the Marelco building in Brgy. Ihatub, Boac. Black shirted rallyists are expected to gather en-masse in front of the capitol building and other sites before proceeding to Ihatub.
I hope something positive and specific comes out of this summit meeting.
