Hi! I am Adrian Reyes, a graduate student from Mapua University. I am currently conducting research regarding the influence of water costing/pricing on Filipino household consumption.
I would like to request the following information:
1. Breakdown of Manila Waters water cost. How the concessionaire derived per cu. m. charges. What are the inclusions of this cost? Example, 10% operation cost, 10% maintenance cost, 20% environmental cost, etc.
2. Any data that will help me understand the components of the water cost of Manila Waters.
Thank you and best regards.
