00:00It's not just a lot of people who are going to pass to the customer.
00:04There are many people who are going to consume some of the politicians who are going to be electric cooperatives.
00:11The customer is going to be a good thing.
00:14The President is in the Senate.
00:15This is Ian Cruz.
00:20A year for us to remove the system laws that are going to pass to the consumer.
00:27We, the people, request.
00:30No, we demand for the immediate amendment of the EFRA.
00:39Immediate o agad-agad na pagtanggal sa system laws at value-added tax o VAT nito ang iniutos ni Pangulong
00:46Bongbong Marcos.
00:47Pero 17 araw matapos iyang banggitin sa State of the Nation Address o SONA,
00:52tinatanong pa rin sa Energy Regulatory Commission kung kaya talagang tanggalin ang system laws sa kuryente.
00:59Pareho pa rin ang sagot ng ERC.
01:01Kayang hadlangan ng non-technical losses tulad ng pagnanakaw sa kuryente, meter tampering o error sa bills.
01:08Hindi paya mo. Is it really feasible?
01:10Yes, Mr. Chen.
01:11If we will further adjust the allowable cap for the non-technical system laws, they will be able to comply.
01:23Kinakausap na umano ng ERC ang Bureau of Internal Revenue o BIR kung nai niyan.
01:28We have released the other day a draft resolution on the classification or characterization of the system laws charge as
01:44a government-mandated pass-through charge.
01:47Pero maliit na porsyento lang ng system laws ang non-technical.
01:523% lang kung kuryente mula sa electric cooperatives ang pag-uusapan ayon sa National Electrification Administration o NEA.
02:00Kaya sabi ng isang resource person, dapat alisin din ang technical losses o kuryente ng natural na nawawala habang dumandaan
02:09sa mga kable.
02:09I don't believe that technical systems loss is merely physics. I think that's a dangerous idea. Because that will also
02:19reward inefficiency.
02:20Sa NEA naman na usisa ang umano yung mga electric cooperative na pag-aari ng mga politiko.
02:26Sabi ng NEA, ilan sa kanila ang hindi nagbabayad ng kuryente kaya ang konsumo nila ay kasama sa naipapasa sa
02:33consumers.
02:34Ang aking direktiba sa kanila ay putulan ninyo. Putulan ninyo. And may mga politiko yung pinutulan namin na tatawag ko
02:41sa akin. Nagbabayad naman o.
02:43So yung mga episode na ganyan ay nabawasan na po.
02:46Ang Department of Energy, National Electrification Administration at iba pang stakeholders ang pag-amienda sa anti-pilferage law ang isinulong
02:56sa pagdinig.
02:57Sa ganitong paraan daw, mas madaling mapapanagot ang mga nagnanakaw ng kuryente.
03:03Kapilang sa pagbabago ay dagdaga ng nasa batas na pwedeng tanggaping ebidensya para mahabol ang mga nagnanakaw ng kuryente.
03:12Our request to the body is for the revision of the anti-pilferage law where we have list down possible
03:21additional prima facie evidence of illegal connections
03:26which will give the DUs and the ECs more instances where they can request the assistance of law enforcement.
03:35Ian Cruz, Nakatutok. 24 Horas.
