ILOILO CITY – Mayor Jerry Treñas said he was disappointed by the poor performance of the Metro Pacific Iloilo Water (MPIW) in addressing the current water crisis.

"As a consumer [...] I am disappointed in our water distributor (MPIW). I was expecting that since it is Metro Pacific Water, which is a big company, the delivery of water will be swift. But if we will look at it, it seems that the city government is becoming its water boy," he said in a press conference on Monday.
