                    [Summary] => The Arroyo administration is eyeing a $125-million loan from the World Bank (WB)  to finance the rehabilitation of the Maynilad Water Resources Inc. (Maynilad) after the government took over its concession from the Lopez group. 


Maynilad president Fiorello Estuar said negotiations are on-going for the loan which would finance the rehabilitation of Maynilad’s most problematic pipelines and ultimately reduce the company’s non-revenue water (NRW).

A top NEDA official said that while it is always "politically unpleasant" to increase utilities rates, these adjustments are a necessary consequence of privatizing private utilities since it is only natural for private corporations to want to recover their costs.
