Water consumers must prepare to pay higher monthly water bills starting January next year, as both East and West zone concessionaires implement an approved round of tariff adjustments.

- By GABRIELL CHRISTEL GALANG

The Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System Regulatory Office (MWSS-RO) said residents should brace for a double-digit percentage impact as Maynilad Water Services, Inc. and Manila Water Co. increase their rates for the first quarter of next year.

The increases stem from the staggered rate-rebasing adjustments that began in 2023, according to Patrick Lester Ty, MWSS chief regulator.

"Just to give you a background about the rate rebasing in 2022...[The] rebasing was approved way back in 2022. This was effective 2023, 2024, and 2025 we had the third tranche. The next tranche is [the fourth tranche] for 2026," Ty said on Monday, Dec. 15.
