What's up mga Viii! My recent visit last March 2026 in Iloilo City was always special because it is my birthplace. More than nostalgia, I felt so proud of how Iloilo's progress came into shape over the years. Grabe! Anlayo na ng naabot ng aking beloved city. One of the most amazing developments and transformations I saw in Iloilo City was their bold move to make Calle Real FREE from spaghetti wires.   Calle Real was officially named J.M. Basa Street which spans 750 meters and famous for its preserved American era neoclassical and art deco buildings. This street is a mix of old colonial buildings with modern businesses making it a lively place for shopping and tourism.  Ang City Regulation Ordinance 2023-006 na nagtake effect noong March 13, 2023 ay inaatasan ang lahat ng pampublikong kompanya ng kuryente, mga pampublikong telecommunication carrier, at iba pang katulad na entidad na ilagay sa ilalim ng lupa ang lahat ng kawad at kable. Bilang pagtugon sa panukala ng City Govern...

  I was always skeptical of having my second credit card because the first one was really traumatizing. Admittedly, I was kinda irresponsible in terms of handling finances during those times. Those bad decisions have haunted me and my credit score over the years. As a long-time Maya app user, I’ve always appreciated the convenience of digital banking in a fast-paced, modern lifestyle. So when Maya launched its own credit card, Maya Black , I was curious and decided to apply. I was offered Maya Black Express, a secured option where you'll need to make a minimum of ₱12,500 express deposit and 80% of which becomes your credit limit. To my surprise, the entire process was smooth and straightforward. And for the first time in a while, I was able to enjoy real credit card perks again, even with my past credit history. From being an active user of the Maya App for years, I have always enjoyed the perks of utilizing the beauty of digital banks in this modern and active lifestyle. That’s wh...

  What's up mga Vi! For today's ASK MANAY Series, we will talk about WHAT IS SYSTEM LOSS ?  I think some of you encountered SYSTEM LOSS especially when we tackle about ELECTRICITY. So, let's do a quick dive on this.  System loss refers to the difference between the total electricity supplied to a distribution system and the amount actually billed to consumers. In other words, ang SYSTEM LOSS ay parang bahagi ng kuryente na nasasayang o nawawala sa proseso ng paghahatid bago pa ito makarating sa consumer.  MGA DAHILAN NG SYSTEM LOSS 1. TECHNICAL LOSSES  Nawawala dahil sa natural na pagkawala ng enerhiya habang dumadaan sa mga kable, transformer at linya ng kuryente.  2. NON-TECHNICAL LOSSES Nawawala dahil sa illegal connections, electricity theft, meter tampering at mga billing irregularities. Ang pagpasok ng MORE ELECTRIC POWER and P OWER CORPORATION (MORE POWER) sa Iloilo City ay isa sa mga magandang halimbawa sa implementasyon ng isang effective system ...
