PBBM prioritizes solutions over blame for power, water issues

President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. emphasized a problem-solving approach, prioritizing solutions over assigning blame for issues like power and water supply disruptions.

Marcos directed that immediate action be taken to address the power and water supply problems, including providing generator sets and fuel to Siquijor and investigating water shortages in Bulacan schools.

The President stressed that immediate action should always take precedence over finger-pointing in solving problems, stating "Fix the problem, not the blame."

He gave authorities six months to permanently resolve the power supply issue in Siquijor, which included a review of the operations of the Siquijor Island Power Corporation (SIPCOR).

The National Electrification Administration (NEA) restored stable electricity in Siquijor on June 14, ending several days of rotating brownouts.

Marcos also issued an ultimatum regarding the San Juanico Bridge repair, setting a December deadline for vehicles up to 12 tons to be able to pass, and warned officials that he would accept their resignations if the deadline is not met.
