MANILA (Mindanao Examiner / Feb. 6, 2014) – President Benigno Aquino said the government continues to work hard with the Philippine Association of Water Districts and the Local Water Utilities Administration to provide sufficient, affordable, and potable water for the people.
“Because water is life, your government works hard with concerned authorities like the LWUA, PAWD, and all water districts across our country to ensure that every Filipino has access to this vital resource. We continue to fulfill this task by enhancing the water service industry, extending it to even the most remote areas, and implementing strategies that make it more accessible to all consumers,” Aquino said in his message to PAWD on the occasion of the 35th National Convention.
The PAWD is the national umbrella organization of more than 500 local water districts in the country.
“Let us all remain vibrant and inspired as we forge ahead, cascading the benefits of inclusive growth to more of our citizens,” Aquino said.
