MANILA, Philippines- Makararanas ang ilang kustomer ng Maynilad Water Services Inc.ng  water service interruptions mula February 4 hanggang February 7, 2023.

Kabilang sa mga apektadong lugar ang Las Piñas, Muntinlupa, Cavite, Parañaque, at Pasay City, ayon sa ulat nitong Sabado.

Sinabi ng Maynilad na apektado ang water service dahil sa mataas na raw water turbidity dulot ng Northeast Monsoon (Amihan) winds.

“We encourage our affected customers to store enough water when supply is available. Upon resumption of water service, please let the water flow out briefly until it clears,” anang kompanya.

Idinagdag nito na maglilibot ang mobile tankers sa mga apektadong lugar para mag-deliver ng potable water, habang maaaaring kumuha ng tubig ang mga kustomer mula sa stationary water tanks sa ilang lugar.

“We apologize for the inconvenience,” pahayag ng Maynilad. RNT/SA

MANILA, Philippines- Pinangunahan ng mga opisyal ng  National Historical Commission of the Philippines (NHCP) ang paggunita, araw ng Sabado sa ika-124 taong anibersaryo  ng  Philippine-American War.

Isang simpleng seremonya ang idinaos sa panulukan ng Sociego at Silencio Streets sa Sampaloc, Maynila para sa nasabing okasyon.

“The site is where the US’ 1st Nebraska Infantry Regiment first fired shots at Filipino forces on Feb. 4, 1899,” ayon sa NHCP.

“Despite Emilio Aguinaldo’s surrender to the American forces in 1901, Filipinos nationwide continued to fight for independence and staged resistance movements even as they lacked armaments. The war lasted until 15 June 1913 with Muslim resistance at the Battle of Bud Bagsak in Sulu,” dagdag na wika nito.

Ang naturang seremonya ay dinaluhan nina Manila Vice Mayor John Marvin “Yul Servo” Nieto na nag-alay ng korona

sa lugar kasama si  Captain Jonathan Salvilla ng  Philippine Navy.

Ang ibang nag-alay ng bulaklak ay sina NHCP Officer-in-Charge Executive Director Carminda Arevalo, ACT Teachers party-list Representative France Castro, at Barangay Chairman Danilo Tibay ng Barangay 586, Zone 57.

Sa kabilang dako, nakiisa naman  si ACT Teachers-Philippines president Antonio Tinio, kamag-anak ni General Manuel Tinio, pinakabatang  Filipino general  na nakipaglaban sa  Philippine-American War,  sa pag-aalay ng korona.

Samantala, isang online exhibit na may titulong “Mga Himpilan at Kabisera ng Pamahalaan mula 1898 hanggang 1901” ang inilunsad ng  NHCP Museo ni Apolinario Mabini sa Tanauan City, Batangas.

“The exhibit will feature the different capitals and seals of the Philippine government and the factors that led to the change of capitals from 1898 to 1901,” ayon sa NHCP.

Matatandaang, tinintahan ni dating Pangulong  Rodrigo Roa  Duterte ang Republic Act 11304 noong 2019,  pagtatanda sa Pebrero 4 bilang special working holiday na tinawag na Philippine-American War Memorial Day “in commemoration of the sacrifice and bravery of the men and women who fought and died in defense of the Filipino nation during the Philippine-American war.” Kris Jose
