"We are trying our best to be power interruptions-free this Masskara celebration."
Thus said Cheryl Tortal, public relations officer of the Central Negros Electric Cooperative (CENECO), assuring Bacolodnons, businessmen, event organizers and visitors that Ceneco is working to make sure power supply is available 24/7 during this Masskara Festival season to end on October 20.
"We are also trying our best to provide stable power supply in the whole duration of the festival. That is why we conduct preventive maintenance works on our distribution lines and facilities this weekend to avoid longer power interruptions. Usually, the unscheduled brownouts are caused by our source of power – the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines (NGCP), but it is CENECO that is being blamed by the consumers," Tortal likewise said.
