Residents in the Island Garden of Samal City experience long and frequent brownouts, which affect the livelihood and daily lives of the residents, and also disrupt the tourism industry in the area.
“If ever mag-brownout gumagamit kami generator, then nakaka-experience kami ng brownout sa isang araw, siguro tatlong beses, apat, then babalik siya minsan. Sa generator mas malaki ang expenses at ‘yung maintenance sa generator [We use generators when we experience three to four times of brownouts a day. But the generators cost a lot],” the resort manager added.
Recently, the Tagum Chamber of Commerce and Industry Incorporated led by Aerol Conde staged a motorcade-rally that culminated at Rotary Park in Barangay Magugpo Poblacion. Meanwhile, Argel Elarde, a resident of Brgy. Balet, Babak district shared that brownouts usually last for six hours a day, affecting the signal and internet connections, which results in his absence in online classes.
