May bagong sinabi si Pangulo kahapon na syndicated estafa ang ikakaso nya kina Ayala at Pangilinan.
Expect na ng mga stock market traders na baka mas bumagsak pa yan. Kawawa yung mga naipit at bumili bago pa yung issue.

I know most of us are aware about the biggest issue in our country which is the  Manila Water Co. and Maynilad Water Services Inc. onerous contract between the government. As president Duterte is threatening these two companies for economic sabotage on the said unjust contract, this results to panic selling of the investors of the said companies.

This is a big issue of the Philippines now and I think it's just right to bring it here and let's discuss about it.
It should be People of the Philippines against these two water Concessionaires.

KABAYAN, what's your take on the latest issue?

PS. I hope mods will not delete this as it's a very important issue that involves every Filipino.
Mga corrupt lang naman apektado nyan, kasalanan din naman nila yan. Kumbaga whale sila sa crypto na napabagsak hahaha. Sorry reply ko, Malaking manipulation talaga ang ginawa nila napakarumi ng laro ng mga taong yan para lang sa salapi. Bakit ganun sila? Imbis taong bayan ang tulungan nila sila pa nagpapalubog laloo. Ganito kasi yan e, Katulad lang yan ng pinapagawang airport ng gobyerno pero San miguel Corp. ang gagastos at magpapatakbo sa loob ng 50 years tapos ituturn over na sa gobyerno. E ang nagpagawa ng mga tubo at patubig satin hindi na nila Tinurn over sa gobyerno palpak pa na kontrata ang ginawa na kakawa talaga at obvious na obvious ang pandarambong na ginawa sa taong bayan at sanlibutan. Nasayang ang mga pinagaralan ng mga abugadong pumayag sa kontrata na yan dapat sa kanila pag sa ibang bansa bitay talaga e. Napakasalbahe hindi makatao yun, daming nakawawang pamilya simula lumubog ang economy natin

Sa ngayon, nag crashed ang MWC o ang manila water company. Sa katunayan nag all time low nga ito at ang presyo ay umabot sa 5.01 per share. Madami talaga ang pang panic selling at ang daming news ang lumalabas tungkol dito. Sa pag gamit din ng fundamental analysis ay pwede natin maiwasan ang mga major loss kagaya na nangyari sa MWC na kung saan -42% ang binaba ngayong araw. Kawawa yung mga investors na hinde nakapag cut ng losses dahil sa improper risk management.
Ung unexpected fall madalas nagagamit yan ng mga magagaling mag scalp nakikisabay sila sa pagbenta ng assets nila tapos sabay abang sa mas mababang price para mas madami ang mahold na assets, so far anticipated din yan since may negative news between government and the company
so expected na may panic sell na magaganap and just like ng sinabi mo kawawa ung mga hindi nakapag cut and loss malamang matagalang hold
sila para sa pag angat ulit ng price ng assets like MWC.

Papaapi pa ba tayo? Oo nabasa ko ang karamihan na nag iigib dati.
Marami na silang napagawa tulad ng pagoapatubo ng linya.
Pero pwede ba tignan nyu bill nyu?
Kasi nakacharge satin lahat mg ginagawa nila at mga natatapong tubig!
Totoo po iyan. Ngayun nalang talaga tayo namumulat sa jatotohanang ginagago tayo.
Ganito din sa kuryente, yung system loss sa mga consumers nila chinacharge na dapat hindi na shoulder ng mga tao yun. Pero sa mahabang panahon parang ginagatasan na nila at parang naging normal charge na yun. Sana maungkat din yung issue tungkol dyan kasi related din yan sa mga Pangilinan, bagsak din stocks niyan pag nagkataon.

Yung sa system loss hindi rin tanggap pero kahit papano may punto dahil sa mga street lights at mga jumperman sa ibang lugar.

About sa water ulet. Pababa ng pababa ang stocks nila at maraming services na ang tinigil ayon sa balita. Isang malaking issue talaga yung corporate income tax.
Yung mga nagawa nilang tubo to connect houses para magkatubig kasama naman yun sa singil nila at pinaglitaan nila kaya d nila dapat ipagmalaki.

Sa aking palagay isa lang ang gustong palabasin ng gobyerno dito, Magbayad sila ng buwis at ayusin ang kontrata ng patas at walang daya pagdating sa kapakanan ng mga ophirians. Dun lang matatapos ang issue, Pero kung gusto pa talaga nilang matapos ang imbestigasyon ay siguradong may makukulong. Imagine nalang kahit marami silang pera at kahit kumuha pa sila ng private army pag sinabi ng pangulo na dis armahan ang mga iyan ay wala silang magagawa kundi ibaba ang armas or kung hindi ay isang madugong paglaban yan sa gobyerno, At isa pa gusto ng pangulo ng maayos at matinong usapan. "magbayad ng buwis" at ayusin lang kontrata yun lang yun at tapos ang usapan. Then next naman ay meralco, Telcom, etc. Iniisa isa lang yan ng gobyerno dahil pagsabay sabay yan. sabay sabay din yan gagawa ng aksyon para di matuloy ang mga gusto ng pangulo.
Wala naman kasing tao na kung nasa tamang pag iisip eh papayag na may magnegosyo na hindi pwedeng malugi, kalokohan naman kasi na ipasa mo sa consumers yung lugi mo sa serbisyo mo, dapat ayusin mo yung system para maayos yung takbo ng negosyo if ever na may lugi tanggapin mo at humanap ng paraan para maiwasan yung lugi kung talagang lugi, hindi yung hindi alam ng taong bayan kung saan kinuha yung basehan ng pagkalugi.

I applaud the President for standing tall against these water concessionaires. Expected na yan na kahit sinong kumpanya pa ang magpapainit ng ulo ng Presidente eh babagsak, tignan niyo na lang ang abs-cbn. Hindi biro ang economic sabotage at sana makapag-come up sila ng pro-consumers na kontrata with another company.

Nagsasalita na din si leni robredo at mukhang pinapanigan pa niya ang mga kumpanyang ito. Baka daw may adverse effect sa investment sa bansa. Meron talaga yan sa mga kumpanyang apektado at nangyayari na Cheesy Nabanggit pa niya na bakit hindi daw ginawan ng hakbang nung 2016 para maayos. Kakaiba din siya  Undecided

Sa tingin ko ito yung time na dapat magkaisa ang mga Pilipino, pro or anti administration ka man. Napakalawak ng corruption na ito na matagal ng namayagpag at maraming high profile individuals ang masasagasaan. Biruin nyo since 1997 pa tayong ginagatasan, kawawa tayong mga taxpayers. Kung hindi lang sana ibenenta ang mga government owned companies dati wala itong mga pasanin na ito dahil magiging mura ang mga basic commodities like tubig, kuryente at petrolyo (shoutout nalang sa mga corrupt na nagbenta ng mga ito).
After Marcos, all the President that were elected are corrupt,.. only Duterte stands for the people and that's the kind of political well that people are looking, not afraid of anyone even the big businessmen like Ayala and Pangilinan,,with our support, the government will win this battle and hopefully the water, electricity or even the internet will be manage by the government.

Pati si Marcos corrupt din naman yun. Mas malala pa nga. Parang si Duterte lang ang matino kaso yung mga nakapalibot sa kanya parang ganun din yata. Ganun din naman siguro kahit gobyerno ang nagpapatakbo. Madalas nga ang aberya pag government ang nagmamanage, katulad ng mga train. Yung mga departments nga natin hindi maayos-ayos ang takbo nila. Mga GOCCs natin palugi na yata halos lahat eh kagaya ng Philhealth, SSS, etc.

Nabulag kasi yung mga tao sa sinasabing demokrasya at akala totoong pinalaya sa kahirapan pero hindi natin alam na namuhunan lang yung mga taong yan para gatasan ang bayan, ngayon hindi na effective ung pa rally rally kasi matalino na yung mga tao and after mag exposed si PRRD about this  oligarchs hindi na nila tatangkain pa na magparally dahil bukong buko na ng taong bayan ung reason nila kung bakit ayaw nila sa administrasyon ngayon marami pang sasagasaan si PRDD nagsisimula pa lang yan.

[1] This is actually more of a local issue. This is an issue that directly affects the people within Metro Manila and some nearby towns and cities, not the entire archipelago. Sometimes, I ask myself why the news on our national televisions, radio stations, and newspapers are all about this issue when the rest of Philippines is not connected to it.

I think PRRD already answered this in one of his speeches. It is not a local issue when it concerns the money of the whole country.

[2] The contracts of the two concessionaires involved were signed in 1997 and, because of the recent cancellation, will end on 2022. There is not much to improve here because they are close to their end. There were onerous provisions but these provisions have been in effect for more than 20 years already. What is the point of changing them today when it is only a few years time before the contract will expire?
The concern does not end in this contract alone. There are more and will be more contracts that the governments will make to private companies, PPP. If this goes unpunished, this onerous contract can repeat on other partnerships the governments will enter with private companies.

Selfish people and anti Duterte people will say the president is doing bad for our stock market and our economy in general. Actually our economy is performing well. Responsible investors have their own stop loss prices. Many are crying, whining and angry with our president because they lost big amounts. These selfish individuals are hindrance of our nation's progress. Even these water concessionaires are trying to reconcile with the president as they support him. You think those companies are losing big time? Yet they are ready to waive their billions claims. Duterte is not perfect but I agree with him on this issue.  

Hindi nila sinasabi yong mga positive sides, puro negative lang na news ang binobroadcast ng mga media, palibhasa galit sila kay Duterte, let's remember na lahat ng ginagawa niya is for the benefit of normal people and hindi ng mga mayayaman na lalong pinapayaman ng mga naunang administration, we don't care about them, we are after the solution Duterte administration will do, just trust guys dahil gusto niya lahat para sa benefit ng lahat hindi ng mga mayayaman.
May nakita pa ako sa TV gusto daw ni Pangulong Duterte na makulong yang mga bilyonaryo na yan kung tutuusin naman talaga maganda ang ginagawa niya dahil para sa mahirap din ito at tama yung mga naunang administration kaunti lang ang nagawa sa bansa natin yung iba parang walang pagbabago nangyari sa ating paligid pero dito sa administration na ito kitang kita naman pero hindi pa lahat .

Well, this is not the first time it fell because of the Presidents's wrath against big companies. If I were an investor, I would have sold my shares immediately after finding out about the onerous contract.

I am just going to wait and see what's going to happen here. The water concessionaires have withdrawn their claim and would no longer ask for a price increase but the government is not willing to compromise at this point. The Department of Justice is on the move and many current/former politicians (including those allied with President Duterte) are probably having their "secret" meetings.

Notice how some of these politicians are starting to talk and express their "concern" about the cancellation of the water concessionaire's contract. I bet they are funded by the Ayalas and Pangilinans.


edit:
It looks like there is still hope for these concessionaires. The contract extension was too early, it should have been on 2022. If they can draft a new contract that isn't onerous, then they can still recover.

I beg to disagree, for water system it is for manila only but there's a bigger issue here which is the onerous contract.
This company is charging the government billions of money and with that, we are all involved as that money come from our taxes.

This involves the entire country in a sense because when it comes to public money it involves every single Filipino, even the unborn. But my point here is that your and my localities have their own water systems, contracts, prices, concessionaires, etc. We are not really involved in it. The onerous contract is the contract being entered into between MWSS and Manila Water and Maynilad. In which case, the issue is within their areas of operation which is Metro Manila and a few towns and cities outside. It does not involve the rest of Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. If the contract involved is with Dipolog City Water District, for example, the national media would certainly make little or no mention of it even if it also involves millions. Our national media has the penchant to focus only on the news within and the surroundings of NCR.

They applied for extension I guess but that's not the thing here.
The Ayalas and Pangilinans were accused by Duterte of economic sabotage and they can't do this alone, so there will be more corrupt officials that will be expose here, with the investigation by the congress all the involved in this disadvantageous contract should answer to the government accordingly and they need to be in jail if proven committed a criminal offense against the government.

The extension application was already approved during the time of Gloria. The contract should have to carry on until 2037. Thanks to our gutsy president it was cancelled.

Everyone should rot in jail, all of them. But then I seriously doubt a single person will ever spend a single night in jail because of this.

wala na silang magagawa dahil kapakanan lang natin ang iniisip ng ating butihing pangulo dahil napakatagal na tayong niloloko at ginagatasan ng mga negosyanteng yan,kaya nga nung panahon ni Marcos kinuha nya ang pamamahala sa mga negosyo nila dahil sa sobra nilang pagka gahaman,at ibinabalik lang ni Duterte ang mga hindi natapos at nagawa noon ng nakaraang pangulo.

Ganyan talaga sa stock market kapag merong pangit na balita sa company tapos holder sila ng stocks nun, benta agad. Pero may magandang entry rin sila dyan kasi kapag bumaba bibili din yang mga yan agad agad. Katulad nalang ng nagkaroon ulit ng balita na hindi na nila sisingilin yung gobyerno ng P10B mahigit. Antayin natin pati yung stocks ng ABS-CBN before March baka bumagsak din. Hindi ako expert sa stocks pero parang crypto market din kapag may mga pangit na balita.
I am not trading outside crypto but it seemed like the same principle is use, there's also a panic because it's the president that is threatening the business of ayala and Pangilinan and these are their major businesses which are a billion dollar business so if something bad happens, other business might be affected as I believe these two tycons have ayala group of companies and pangilinan group of companies.

It looks like it's not wise to invest in philippine stock market at this time as the president might continue to look other businesses that he can stop when necessary.
Pangilinan at Ayala companies talaga ang involved. Matagal na pala yang pinaglalaban yan ng isang congresistang babae pero walang nakikinig sa kanya. Nung mag search ako, almost o more than 7 years na pala niyang inoopen yan sa senate pero walang pumapansin talaga sa kanya. Ngayon, nakahanap siya ng kakampi at yun ang pangulo. Halos parehas nga lang galaw at principle ang stocks at crypto pero mas mabagal sa stocks.

Malaking impluensya ang magagawa nila pero bilang pilipino nasa panig ako ng pangulo. Dapat maihayag na yung kalokohan ng mga perwisyong negosyanteng katulad nila sana nga ituloy ni pangulong Duterte na itakeover ng militar yung MWSS magkasubukan na talaga kung gaano kalaki ung perang palalabasin ng mga mayayaman na to para ikalugi nila..

I am with the decision of PRRD, imagine ganito pala yan, kapag hindi naapprove yung presyong hinihingi ng maynilad sa tubig at ng manila water ipapasa sa gobyerno kaya nagkaroong ng 10b utang ang gobyerno sa kanila ibig sabihin hawak ng dalawang kumpanya sa leeg ang gobyerno kaya kahit anong presyo gusto nila dapat approbahan kundi ang gobyerno ang magbabayad kaya kapag tumaas ang presyo walang angal kahit na nakukuha nila ng libre ang tubig at kung tutuusin bawing bawi na sila sa pag lilinya ng mga tubo nyan. Imagine ang presyo nyan is 25 pesos per cubic meter at may mga extra charges pa kaya dapat lang ang ginawa ng Presidente at sana lang e ang mga basic commodities ay mahawaka ng gobyerno at hindi ng mga oligaryo.

What is only left unattended perhaps is the accountability of the people involved. But if the congressional hearings are all about finger-pointing, they better be kept out of the national news.
The are establishing facts, the investigation has just recently started, we have to be patient and hope that they will come up with facts on who should be held accountable for this big criminal offense.

They are trying to reconcile because they got "check mate" already.
Not going after the 10 billion collectible to the government is non sense because the administration would not pay that amount anyway.

They need to face the consequences of their selfish action, they (water concessionaires ) are too selfish to even pass their corporate tax to the consumers while continue collecting fees for service improvement purposes when they can't provide to the people a better service.

they will be expose more as for sure there's a lot of anomalous transactions in the past that are yet to be discovered.

Kudos to the President for being brave enough in protecting the interest of the Filipino people.

Ganyan talaga sa stock market kapag merong pangit na balita sa company tapos holder sila ng stocks nun, benta agad. Pero may magandang entry rin sila dyan kasi kapag bumaba bibili din yang mga yan agad agad. Katulad nalang ng nagkaroon ulit ng balita na hindi na nila sisingilin yung gobyerno ng P10B mahigit. Antayin natin pati yung stocks ng ABS-CBN before March baka bumagsak din. Hindi ako expert sa stocks pero parang crypto market din kapag may mga pangit na balita.
I am not trading outside crypto but it seemed like the same principle is use, there's also a panic because it's the president that is threatening the business of ayala and Pangilinan and these are their major businesses which are a billion dollar business so if something bad happens, other business might be affected as I believe these two tycons have ayala group of companies and pangilinan group of companies.

It looks like it's not wise to invest in philippine stock market at this time as the president might continue to look other businesses that he can stop when necessary.

I know most of us are aware about the biggest issue in our country which is the  Manila Water Co. and Maynilad Water Services Inc. onerous contract between the government. As president Duterte is threatening these two companies for economic sabotage on the said unjust contract, this results to panic selling of the investors of the said companies.

This is a big issue of the Philippines now and I think it's just right to bring it here and let's discuss about it.
It should be People of the Philippines against these two water Concessionaires.

KABAYAN, what's your take on the latest issue?

PS. I hope mods will not delete this as it's a very important issue that involves every Filipino.
