Several parts of the country are still reeling from the effects of consecutive storms amid days of heavy rains.

MWSS-RO suspends disconnection activities in Maynilad, Manila Water service areas
The Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System-Regulatory Office (MWSS RO) on Friday announced it has ordered concessionaires Manila Water Company Inc. and Maynilad Water Services Inc. to temporarily suspend all service disconnection activities due to non-payment of water bills within their respective service areas. In a statement, the MWSS-RO said the directive was issued in light of the combined devastation brought about by the Southwest Monsoon (Habagat) and Tropical Storms "Crising," "Dante," and "Emong.' The agency said suspension of service disconnection activities shall be effective for 15 days, from July 25, 2025 to August 8, 2025.

'Rest assured that the MWSS RO will continue to implement proactive measures to support communities and protect consumer welfare, especially during this time of adversity,' it added. Maynilad currently serves customers in the west zone, which covers the cities of Caloocan, Las Piñas, Makati, Malabon Manila, Muntinlupa, Navotas, Parañaque, Pasay, Quezon, Valenzuela.
