A fisherfolk group has renewed calls for the Laguna Lake Development Authority (LLDA) to terminate its deal with Maynilad Water Services, Inc. (MWSI), which allowed the company to tap Laguna de Bay as the main source of its domestic and commercial water service. “We urge the LLDA to terminate its deal with the Maynilad and bring back the lake’s traditional orientation as fishing ground and not for the use of corporate and vested interests,” Fernando Hicap, chairperson of the militant group Pambansang Lakas ng Kilusang Mamamalakaya ng Pilipinas (PAMALAKAYA), said in a statement issued yesterday, Dec. 6.
