KALIBO, Aklan—The Aklan Electric
Cooperative (Akelco) is being threatened by the possibility of privatization.
Roger Orillos, manager of the
Institutional Development Department (IDD), said this is the reason the power
cooperative kept on strengthening its operation in the province of Aklan.
“We are also strengthening the
Member Consumers Electrification Committee organized by the electric-power
cooperative. Soon, we will also organize the Barangay Member Consumers Electric
Cooperative to further unify and strengthen the power cooperative,”
he said.
he said.
“We have been receiving reports
there are at least two multinational companies who are interested to take over
the power cooperative once there are opportunities for the power cooperative to
be privatized,” he said.
For several years, Akelco has been
receiving numerous awards from the National Electrification Administration as a
Triple A awardee.
Last week newly installed
administrator Edgar Masongsong visited the Akelco office here to personally
guide the power-cooperative officials for their direction setting this year.
