Business groups such as the Boracay Foundation Incorporated (BFI) and the Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry-Boracay urged the management of the Aklan Electric Cooperative (AKELCO), a power distributor, to invest in power supply.
This developed after stakeholders in this resort island experienced a series of power interruptions. Earlier, AKELCO officials blamed "habagat" or the southwest monsoon rains to be causing the series of power failures in this resort island.
Djila Winnenberrer, PCCI board member, said that the AKELCO management should consider the importance of electricity to the tourism industry. Others, she said, could afford to buy generator sets, but many small entrepreneurs could not.
For her part, Malay Councilor Nette Graf of BFI urges AKELCO to meet world class standard as they are supplying electricity to Boracay considered to be a premier tourism destination.
