History
Manila Water is a subsidiary of Ayala Corporation, the Philippines's oldest conglomerate, in partnership with British and Japanese investors. Incorporated on January 6, 1997, Manila Water started operations on January 1, 2000, and became a publicly listed company on March 18, 2005. Since the Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System (MWSS) privatization on August 1, 1997, it is the east concessionaire and the Maynilad Water Services, Inc. the west concessionaire. The 25-year water concession agreement inked with MWSS is expected to terminate in 2022. On December 12, 2007, Bulacan and the Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System (MWSS) signed an agreement for the development of a ₱11-billion bulk water supply project. It was reported that Manila Water would implement the project. MWSS and Manila Water would provide a financial package of an infrastructure grant, a P10-million development assistance and a ₱10-million royalty fee to the towns of Norzagaray and Doña Remedios Trinidad, which would host the water supply project.
In 2009, Manila Water acquired ownership of the company that supplies water to growth areas in Laguna, south of Manila. Through its wholly owned subsidiary AAA Water Corp (AWC), Manila Water gained a 70% stake in Laguna AAA Water Corp, a joint venture between the provincial government of Laguna and AWC. The joint venture company serves the cities of Santa Rosa, Biñan and Cabuyao, where several international businesses including Nestle, Ford, and Coca-Cola, and major industrial parks, are located.
In 2010, Manila Water and the Philippine Tourism Authority, a government agency, formed a joint venture called Boracay Island Water Co., Inc. With an initial capitalization of ₱300 million (approximately US$6.5 million) and a 25-year concession agreement, the company has been tasked to develop, operate, and manage the water and sewerage system of the Philippines' most popular tourist spot.
The company has expanded operations elsewhere in the Asia-Pacific region, with management contracts and/or investments in Vietnam India and Australia.
In February 2012, Manila Water disclosed that its consortium with partners Viscal Development Corp. and Stateland Inc. was awarded the bulk water system project of Cebu in the northern and central areas of the province. The provincial government of Cebu and the consortium were to jointly undertake the project with 49 percent and 51 percent equity, respectively.
Water Source
Angat Dam is a concrete water reservoir embankment dam to produce hydroelectricity that supplies the Manila metropolitan area water. It was a part of the Angat-Ipo-La Mesa water system. The reservoir supplies about 90 percent of raw water requirements for Metro Manila through the facilities of the Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System. It irrigates about 28,000 hectares of farmland in the provinces of Bulacan and Pampanga.
Service Areas
Manila Water today serves over 6 million customers in its concession area:
Within Metro Manila (East Zone)
Outside Metro Manila (Provincial)
In 2009, its 25-year concession agreement with the Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System was extended by another 15 years.
Social Responsibility
As soon as it took over its concession area, Manila Water developed a program to provide potable water at affordable rates to urban poor communities. Called "Tubig Para Sa Barangay" (Water for the Community, or sometimes, Water for the Poor), the program now benefits 1.6 million residents. Over the years, it also developed complementing programs for water supply and sanitation in public schools, public markets, city jails, hospitals, and orphanages. It also has an educational program called "Lakbayan" or "Water Trail" to brief stakeholders on the water supply chain.
In 2004, Manila Water created a Sustainable Development Cluster, an internal committee to oversee the company's sustainable development agenda. In 2005, it became the first Philippine company to publish a Sustainability Report following Global Reporting Initiative guidelines. Other subsidiaries of Ayala Corporation would soon follow its example to make public their commitments to measure, report, and improve performance on sustainability indicators on economic, environment, and labor practices.
