Trashing MWSS pacts bad move?

Terminating the contracts between the state-run Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System (MWSS) and two water concessionaires Manila Water Company, Inc. and Maynilad Water Services, Inc. won’t necessarily improve services, a veteran lawmaker said Friday.

Mandaluyong Rep. Neptali Gonzales 2nd, who is assured of retaining his House Majority leader post when Congress opens its First Regular Session on July 22, made the pronouncement in light of the mounting calls for the MWSS to severe its pacts with two water concessionaires which have been found to charging their customers of their corporate income taxes by embedding them on their tariffs.
