Panglao mayor Leonila Montero (standing, 2nd from right) and town Councilor Amira Alia Montero- Caindec (standing, extreme left) pose with residents of Balili and Daorong areas of barangay Danao. The two local government unit (LGU) officials supervised the energization of water source at the said barangay. Jose Arbitratario, Barangay Captain of Danao, looked for ways to generate two water sources to address the water needs of his constituents. Mayor Montero brought two generator sets to energize the two water sources separately. One of the generator sets energized the water pumping unit submerged in the artesian well of Marciano Tabilo at Balili, Danao, and pumped water out to the concrete water tank to serve the villagers’ needs living at Balili. Meanwhile, the other generator set was used to energize equipment that pumps out water from the artesian well of Boy Clemeña situated at Daorong, Danao. The residents were really happy seeing water flowing right in front of their eyes after the water supply was cut following the power outage due to the typhoon. The event took place on Jan. 8, 2022.
