Maynilad provides clean water to Bohol earthquake victims

West Zone concessionaire Maynilad Water Services, Inc. (Maynilad) has dispatched around 400 pieces of five-gallon containers with potable water to Tagbilaran City, Bohol, a day after a 7.2 magnitude earthquake struck the island-province. The emergency drinking water supply was coursed through the Department of Social Welfare and Development and the Philippine Coast Guard.
