Abstract

Water resource management was a problem in the Cebu water district of Philippines. Cebu was bidding to become a regional economic centre and the water crisis was hindering its plan. There was anecdotal evidence too of foreign investors backing out of possible investments and ventures in the Cebu metropolitan area due to the threat of an inadequate water supply to meet their production needs. The existing water districts'' apathy and lack of incentive to take on the responsibility of managing the water resources induced the Philippines government to call for private sector participation. WorldWater Inc set up a novel method of water supply and utilisation on an experimental basis in the Ronda municipality, which is showing positive results.
