The government may take back control of the National Grid Corp of the Philippines (NGCP) if it is proven that there are national security concerns and if it’s ineffective in fulfilling its mandate, the Presidential Communications Office said on Wednesday.
there are national security concerns and if it’s ineffective in fulfilling its mandate, the Presidential Communications Office said on Wednesday.
Forty percent of NGCP is owned by the State Grid Corporation of China, while the remaining 60 percent is Filipino-owned. Tulfo said the Chinese ownership “poses a serious national security threat,” considering the conflict over the West Philippine Sea. Tulfo reiterated the need to return NGCP’s ownership to the Philippine government, specifically to the National Transmission Corporation, and not to China’s state grid and private firms.
Responding to a query about why the manuals and instructions for the NGCP equipment in their substations were written in Chinese, Concepcion said the equipment was acquired from a Chinese provider.
