Having the highest industrial and residential power rates in Asia, the Philippine electricity/power industry has contributed significantly to the stagnation of domestic industries, and consequently, the loss of economic dynamism and sustainability. This has made life harsher and harder especially for the greater majority of working and impoverished Filipinos who suffer the burdensome consequences of depressed wages, job losses, high prices of goods and services, and an even poorer quality of life than before.
We, the consumers, need to unite and act now. Let us switch our lights off and hold noise barrage on October 11, at 7:30 PM, to send a strong message to government agencies and officials involved.
No to high electricity rates!
