                    [Summary] => The board of the National Power Corp. (Napocor) has approved the terms for its transition supply contract (TSC) with the Manila Electric Co. (Meralco). 


"We heard that the Napocor board already approved the terms of contract for the TSC," Meralco treasurer Rafael Andrada said. 


Andrada said the two firms have agreed to file a joint application with the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) for the approval of the new supply contract. "The firms might have a joint filing," he said.
