The First Automated Philippine Election 2010

The count started with the use of the controversial Precinct Count Optical Scanner. The two major news network in the Philippines (ABS-CBN) and GMA Network helped the masses monitor the tallying records of the election. It is said that in 3 days time we will see the results unlike in manual voting that last for over a month to count.

To know the partial counting you can visit the following:
GMA Network (Partial Unofficial Poll Tally) – http://www.gmanews.tv/eleksyon2010/nationalcount

Notes: So far it is said that Philippine Election 2010 is the most peaceful election in comparison with the previous elections the Philippines had in spite of the violent incidents happening in Mindanao. Also the most notable incident recently is the Cavite Shootout in Baccoor Police Station, I hope no more will happen.

3-hour brownouts schedule by Meralco for Thursday

Power distributor Manila Electric Co. (Meralco) announced another series of brownouts on Thursday, some of which may take place anytime until nine o’ clock this evening.

But instead of lasting three hours — as previously announced earlier the same day — electricity cutoffs in its service area will only last for two hours, the company said in an announcement posted at its website.

http://www.meralco.com.ph/Consumer/news/meralco_NW01910.html

Earlier in the day, the company said it was going to implement three-hour rotating brownouts, citing problems in the 1,200-megawatt Ilijan Power Plant in Batangas City owned by Kepco.

“Medyo mas hindi maganda ang sitwasyon natin ngayon. Batay sa information na binigay sa aming system control center mula sa system operator which is the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines, 800 megawatts ang kakulangan for today,” Meralco telecommunications manager Joe Zaldarriaga said in an interview on Unang Hirit.

(Our situation today is worse than yesterday. Based on the info from NGCP, we are experiencing a power supply shortfall of 800 megawatts.)

Source: http://www.gmanews.tv/story/187943/meralco-schedules-2-hr-brownouts-for-thursday

The 3 Hour Rotational Brownout of Meralco listed the following affected areas:

METRO MANILA
BATANGAS
BULACAN
CAVITE
LAGUNA
PAMPANGA
QUEZON
RIZAL

Zaldarriaga said that problems experienced at the Ilijan Power Plant, as well as independent power producers undergoing preventive maintenance, worsened the shortfall from Sual, Sta. Rita modules, and Malaya power plants that caused the two-hour outages on Wednesday.

“At this point ang maibibigay lang talaga ng Meralco insofar as this is concerned is magbigay ng timely update. Hindi namin kontrolado ang generation and transmission,” he added.

(At this point, Meralco can only give timely updates because we have no control over power generation and transmission).

Zaldarriaga noted, however, that demand for power might decrease starting Friday, which is a holiday, and would continue until the weekend.

The affected areas, as posted on Meralco’s website include:

Main reason for the mandatory brownouts is that the supply of electricity is not sufficient at the moment. This is due to a lot of people are using electric fans and/or aircon to ease the heat of “El Nino Phenomenon”.

Typhoon Ondoy, Marikina Raging River

I just got back from the river’s edge 5 minutes ago. A 10-15 feet height differential between the Marikina River and the embankment has now been reduced to the point that water is splashing against the high-rises of Eastwood, Metro Manila. A security guard for this sealed off area approaches me and covers me with his umbrella while I snap pictures from my phone. “Where are the police or firemen?” I asked. He first points at a speck in the middle of the river 300-400 meters out to my right. “That was a woman with her 2 year old infant clinging on to her. She passed through here in the middle of the river – waving at us for help. There was nothing we could do – she had passed though within 5 seconds. We’ve been seeing other people washed away.” We watched helplessly at the 20+ people 200 meters away that are now sitting on top of their corrugated roof-tops as the river rages beneath them on their submerged homes… waiting for emergency personnel yet to come.
