                    [Title] => Many in Metro Cebu buying expensive water
                    [Summary] => 

While MCWD consumers are worried about the price increase when they are paying around P15 to P20 per cubic meter of water, 61 percent of the total households in Metro Cebu not being served by MCWD are paying P150 per cu. m.


Records show that only 39 percent of the total households in Metro Cebu are served. This does not include underserved areas where water is not available 24 hours a day.

Unserved areas buy water for as high as P150 per cu. m. from unsafe sources, water tankers and so called "taro-taro."
