The government has ramped up its cyber security surveillance of the country’s power distribution system with the signing of a new memorandum of understanding between the National Grid Corporation of Philippines and the National Intelligence Coordinating Agency .
During the event, the President lauded NGCP President and CEO Anthony Almeda for taking the lead in forging the new accord, which he said, will help allay concerns on the security of NGCP’s power system. “There have been fears that the involvement of any foreign entity in our power transmission system would present a security threat to the Philippines,” he added.
In 2019, some lawmakers were alarmed after China’s State Grid Corporation was able to get a 40 percent stake in NGCP, which is a private consortium.
