Poe wants water interruptions probed

SEN. Mary Grace Poe on Sunday called on the Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System (MWSS) to take a close look at the water service interruption scheduled by Maynilad Water Services which could affect almost 600,000 of its customers.

The water concessionaire has announced service interruptions starting July 12. Poe said the MWSS, as state regulator, 'should not take this matter sitting down as these recurring service cuts will affect over half a million consumers.'
