GovtServicesPH Crimewater and the National Mainstream Media

I'm at my wit's end. I'm begging anyone, everyone for help to make this into National News. Our city, SJDM in Bulacan is plagued by the lack of assistance from the LGU regarding our water supply. Our barangay in particular hasn't had a single drop of water from our faucets in the last 17 days, yet the water bill stays the same. We rely on water trucks getting water from the river which is unpotable, itchy, murky and reeks of sewage smell. Primewater sent a truck to our street 2x in the last 17 days to give each household a bit of water.

THIS IS DRIVING ME INSANE ALREADY. I AM THISCLOSE TO DOING SOMETHING UNTHINKABLE. I AM DESPERATE FOR ANY HELP AS I CAN'T WATCH MY KIDS HARROWING OVER WATER AND GETTING SICK WITHOUT ADEQUATE WATER SUPPLY. I AM TRYING TO KEEP IT TOGETHER BUT I AM HOLDING ON BY A FUCKING THREAD.

***EDIT: RESEARCHING WHY PRIMEWATER SUDDENLY GAINED TRACTION AND POWER. TURNS OUT IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN THR PUTANGINANG RODRIGO DUTERTE WHO PLACED EVERYTHING IN MOTION. He pushed for the contracts currently held by Pangilinan and Ayala to be turned over to fucking Villars. I hope the Dutertes and Villars get their own extra deep layer in hell - flayed perpetually and tortured to every inch of their fiber.

Sa Maynilad and Manila Water, si MWSS ang nangangasiwa sa Primewater ba sinong agency ang nangangasiwa dyan? Bakit may prangkisa pa din yan kung basura ang serbisyo? Yan dapat ipa imbestiga sa Quad Com habang nalalapit ang eleksyon.

walang nangangasiwa dyan sa Primewater. strategy ng mga Villar bumili ng mga city/municipal water district para gawing Crimewater. madami yung nakukuha sa suhol o retirement package para sa mga GM, Board of Directors etc. wala din masyado effect sa mga employee ng water district kasi naaabsorb naman sila mostly pag naging privatized na. ang nagsusuffer lang talaga ay yung mga consumers na imbes gumanda ang serbisyo e lalong pumapangit. bilib ako dun sa mga water districts na ayaw pasakop sa prime.

just to be fair ginagawa din to Manila Water (Laguna Water, Boracay Water, Clark Water...) pero syempre sobrang layo ng quality nila
