Zarate urges Cusi to solve power issues before focusing on politics

Energy Secretary Alfonso Cusi defended his focus on political activities, saying he is monitoring the Luzon power situation despite criticisms.

Bayan Muna Representative Carlos Isagani Zarate urged Cusi to address the thin power supply in Luzon rather than attending PDP-Laban intramurals.

Zarate noted that brownouts were worse on Wednesday with a 458MW deficiency compared to Tuesday's 200MW.

Cusi presided over the PDP-Laban national council meeting on Monday, where they adopted a resolution urging President Duterte to run for vice president in 2022.
