Spent the morning in Apalit, my hometown, and in adjacent towns and cities—checking on families affected by #HabagatPH. We distributed relief packs and visited dredging work at Tulaoc and Pampanga River along NLEX. Grateful to be able to listen to what our people needed.

My most profound sympathy to the families of Rene and Divine; my thoughts and prayers are with them. I join the Ateneo community in grief over their loss.

Rene and Divine were young men of promise whose presence made the world brighter. That light has gone too soon; our hearts are heavy with regret and sorrow. Their memory will be carried forward by those who knew them; they will have our eternal respect and love.

Today at 8:28 a.m., MTerra Solar delivered its first electron to the national grid, the first energy as a power generator. Just 16 months from groundbreaking, we are now live and generating mid-merit supply by Meralco. Well done!

Meralco will review its current fuel position—especially LNG, the likely impact on the price of coal, the price of diesel—as these may affect power prices.

We want to ensure adequate supply of power and manage price volatility as responsibly as possible. Have made it clear to the team that we must help protect consumers as cost of goods rises globally.

It would also help if we’re mindful of our electricity consumption as the war in the Middle East continues. We import much of the fuel used to generate power—we can all help to have enough power to get through the next few weeks if we conserve power.

Worrying about our OFWs. I’ve asked PLDT and Smart to offer free calls for Filipinos in countries affected by the conflict in the Middle East. Details to follow, but the marching order is to make it as easy as possible for our countrymen to reach their loved ones, and vice versa.

PLDT, Smart, and TNT subscribers in the PH will also be able to call their loved ones in those same countries for free. We’re offering this until March 7, and will monitor the need for an extension.

Must clarify given reports of online impostors: This is my only X account. My only IG account is mvp3838. And my FB is for friends only. I don’t engage using any other account. Scammers typically become more active during the Holidays, so please be wary. Happy holidays to all.
