Cusi Firm on Review of ECs to Achieve Lasting Solutions

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Department of Energy (DOE) Secretary Alfonso G. Cusi today emphasized the unwavering resolve of the Department to look into the issues plaguing electric cooperatives (ECs), and create the appropriate long-term solutions that would enable them to afford their customers the best services.

Sec. Cusi said, "We have to do the right thing for our country at all times. We cannot turn a blind eye to the pressing need for improved access and quality electricity services in some parts of the Philippines."

"We understand that there will be parties who might resist the required reforms. However, as public officials, we cannot and should not be deterred by any threat that aims to derail us from performing our duties to the Filipino people," he stressed.

The Secretary added that the cooperation and inputs of ECs are crucial to the successful resolution of the deep-seated problems besetting cooperatives for many years.

"We continue to ask the ECs and their leadership not to politicize this process, which only seeks to transform the state of electrification in the country to foster growth needed to significantly improve the lives of our countrymen," Sec. Cusi concluded.
