Maynilad takes over water systems in 3 Cavite towns

MANILA, Philippines - West zone water concessionaire Maynilad Water Services, Inc. (Maynilad) is now serving 20,200 additional households in the province of Cavite after it formally took over the water systems of 49 subdivisions in Kawit, Bacoor and Imus.

The company announced yesterday that the newly-established connections would provide round-the-clock water supply to 84,800 people who used to rely on deep wells and water deliveries.

“Service expansion in the southern portion of Metro Manila remains to be one of our major objectives. For too long, residents in these areas have been dependent on deep well water which studies have shown to be unsafe and can cause land subsidence,” said Maynilad president and CEO Ricky P. Vargas.

In Bacoor City, the subdivisions that have recently been connected to Maynilad’s distribution network are Estherville, Greenpoint Homes, Kalayaan Homes, Macaria Subdivision, New Better Landscape Subdivision, Villa Cristorey, Villa Maria, Vista Verde South Executive Village, Katherine, Krause Park, South Susana Homes, Aurora Homes and JS Ville.

Maynilad’s service expansion has also reached the following subdivisions in Imus City: Bayanihan Homes, Baylumville Subdivision, Berrita Subdivision, Celina Plains, Del Pillar Village, Dexterville Homes, Dreamville I, Gawad Kalinga Maryville, Hoteliers Village (Malagasang), Isla Verde, La Terraza Villas, Legian II, Manela, Pag-asa Subdivision (Bucandala), Pinagpala Subdivision, Sarah Subdivision, Sarreal Bankers Village, Sarreal Pulo, Sheltertown, Silvertown II, Silvertown III, Sunnydale Villas.

Also enjoying the improved water service are in The Istana Subdivision, The Village, Treelane II, Treelane III, Villa Celina, Villa Fatima, Villa Sisa, Villa Susana Subdivision, Vilma Subdivision, Viña Village, Woodlane Subdivision, Citilane Subdivision, Sunnydale Garden Villas, and Woodlane Townhomes.

Meanwhile, in Kawit, Garland Subdivision and Summerville Subdivision are also now enjoying water supply from Maynilad.

This year, Maynilad earmarked P1.9 billion to extend its network to Cavite, Las Piñas, Muntinlupa and Pasay.

These projects include the laying of primary, secondary and tertiary pipelines, as well as the takeover of subdivisions in Cavite.
