Govt agencies probe NAIA power outage

(UPDATE) TRANSPORTATION Secretary Jaime Bautista said that a joint probe committee composed of officials of the Department of Transportation, Office of Transport Security, Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA), and National Intelligence Coordinating Agency (NICA) will investigate the power outage that hit the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) on Labor Day.

'This group will be joined by the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) and the Philippine National Police (PNP) so that we will be able to determine what is the real cause because there are claims that it is not a regular fault that entered the system of Terminal 3,' Bautista said on Tuesday.
