Isang mahalagang tagumpay para sa sektor ng elektripikasyon sa kanayunan ang naitala ng ating Power Bloc matapos aprubahan ng House Committee on Legislative Franchises ang mga panukalang prangkisa ng siyam na electric cooperative sa isinagawang pagdinig ngayong araw, Hulyo 3.

Kabilang sa mga electric cooperative na nakatanggap ng pag-apruba mula sa komite ang: Don Orestes Romualdez Electric Cooperative (DORELCO), Leyte III Electric Cooperative, Inc. (LEYECO III), Leyte IV Electric Cooperative (LEYECO IV), Leyte V Electric Cooperative, Inc. (LEYECO V), Samar I Electric Cooperative, Inc. (SAMELCO I), Samar II Electric Cooperative (Samelco II), Negros Oriental I Electric Cooperative (NORECO I), Sorsogon I Electric Cooperative (Soreco I) at Cebu I Electric Cooperative (Cebeco I).

Pinangunahan nina APEC Party-List Rep. Sergio Dagooc at PhilRECA Party-List Rep. Presley C. De Jesus ang pagsusulong ng mga panukalang ito sa komite. Sa kanilang mga pahayag, binigyang-diin nila ang mahalagang papel ng ating mga electric cooperative sa paghahatid ng maaasahan at abot-kayang serbisyo ng kuryente sa milyun-milyong member-consumer-owners sa iba’t ibang panig ng bansa.

Ang pag-apruba ng komite sa mga prangkisa ay repleksyon ng matibay na suporta ng mga Kongreso sa ating mga kooperatiba. Sa huli, muling pinagtibay ng Power Bloc ang kanilang suporta sa mga electric cooperative at ang kanilang pangakong isusulong ang mga panukalang magpapalakas sa sektor ng enerhiya, magpapabuti sa kalidad ng serbisyo ng kuryente, at magtataguyod ng kapakanan ng mga consumer-members sa buong bansa.

𝗪𝗲𝗹𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗽𝗼 𝘀𝗮 𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗽𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗮!

Isang masigla at produktibong kwentuhan ang ating naging paghaharap kasama sina GM Engr. Josef Erwin R. Tabuena ng SORECO II at Talavera Municipal Administrator at Former Vice Mayor, Hon. Marites Gaboy-Lim!

Sila ay matibay na katuwang natin bilang mga mahahalagang kabalikat sa pagsusulong ng ating mga adbokasiya.

Dahil sa kanilang suporta, liderato, at pagkakaisa, mas lumalakas ang ating misyon na magdala ng liwanag, kaunlaran, at pag-asa sa bawat sulok ng bansa.

Mabuhay po kayo, at maraming salamat sa inyong dedikasyon para sa kapakanan ng ating mga Electric Cooperatives at Member-Consumer-Owners sa bansa. Padayon!

Greetings of peace and solidarity to our beloved Member-Consumer-Owners (MCOs), our dedicated rural electrification Warriors of Light, and the entire Filipino nation!

As we welcome the month of June, we also mark a significant legislative milestone: the end of the First Regular Session of Congress this week. It has been a challenging yet highly productive session dedicated to championing the rights and welfare of our electricity consumers.

I want to take this opportunity to deeply acknowledge and thank our colleagues in Congress who have joined our voice and stood by our side. Together, we are amplifying the call for the removal of VAT on electricity. This growing, unified front is a testament to our shared commitment to ensuring reliable, accessible, and affordable electricity for all Filipino consumers. Our fight does not end here, and we will continue to push for policies that alleviate the burden on the ordinary Filipino.

As we transition into the middle of the year, we must also prepare for the changing weather. The rainy season is fast approaching. I urge everyone to remain vigilant, prioritize disaster preparedness, and ensure that our households and communities are safe. Let us work closely with our electric cooperatives to report issues and ensure that our power lines and electrical connections are secure against typhoons and heavy rains.

With the new school year about to begin, we look forward to seeing our students return to their studies with renewed energy. It is my earnest hope that, moving forward, an understanding of the energy sector can become an integral part of the curriculum for our youth. By educating the new generation about rural electrification, energy efficiency, and sustainable power, we empower them to become proactive participants in nation-building.

May this month of June bring good luck, abundant blessings, and new opportunities for everyone. Let us face the coming days with unwavering solidarity and hope, knowing that together, we can weather any storm and keep the lights on for our communities.

Mabuhay ang mga Electric Cooperatives at Member-Consumer-Owners!

Sa PhilRECA, Protektado Ka!

Aprubado na sa Ikatlong Pagbasa ang 𝗛𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗕𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗡𝗼𝘀. 𝟵𝟬𝟬𝟮, 𝟵𝟬𝟬𝟯, 𝟵𝟬𝟬𝟰, 𝗮𝘁 𝟵𝟬𝟬𝟱 na nagkakaloob ng prangkisa sa Camarines Sur II Electric Cooperative (CASURECO2 ), Camarines Norte Electric Cooperative (CANORECO ), Pangasinan I Electric Cooperative-PANELCO I at Camarines Sur I Electric Cooperative (CASURECO I ) upang maipagpatuloy nila ang kanilang operasyon sa pamamahagi ng kuryente sa kanilang mga miyembro-konsumidores at mga komunidad na kanilang pinaglilingkuran.

Ang pag-usad nito sa Kongreso ay malinaw na indikasyon ng matibay na suporta ng ating mga mambabatas sa ating mga kooperatiba. Sa huli, mananatiling kakampi ninyo ang Power Bloc sa pagsusulong ng kapakanan ng ating sektor at sa interes ng ating mga kababayan.
