Noy tells Abaya: No more NAIA blackouts
By Delon Porcalla and Danessa Rivera (The Philippine Star) | Updated April 5, 2016 - 12:00am

MANILA, Philippines - There should be no repeat of the power outage that crippled the country’s premier international airport for five hours over the weekend, President Aquino told the airport manager and the transport chief yesterday.

“The President has directed Secretary Abaya and airport general manager Honrado to adopt contingency measures to prevent the recurrence of the power outage that disrupted operations at NAIA-3 over the weekend,” Presidential Communications Operations Office Secretary Herminio Coloma Jr. said.

He was referring to Transportation Secretary Joseph Emilio Abaya and Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) general manager Angel Honrado.

At the same time, airport authorities were also “instructed to maintain vigilance so that the safety of travelers will be assured continuously,” Coloma said.

Abaya and Honrado were summoned to a meeting at Malacañang yesterday afternoon.

The MIAA said a Manila Electric Co (Meralco) substation tripped, causing the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 3 to lose power.

Meralco spokesman Joe Zaldarriaga confirmed the tripping, but clarified that the trouble lasted only for about 45 seconds and the substation was able to immediately restore power supply to NAIA-3.

He said Meralco dispatched an inspection team to the NAIA substation at 1 a.m. Sunday but found the facility already working. Zaldarriaga said the blackout continued due to “load pressure from the internal electrical facilities.”

Nonetheless, Zaldarriaga said Meralco is checking all its facilities serving the NAIA-3 to prevent another power failure at the busy airport facility.

“Based on our assessment, the power interruption that occurred was apparently due to problems in NAIA’s internal electrical facilities,” the Meralco spokesman said.

He declined to give an update on the meeting between Meralco and airport authorities.

“We are working very closely with NAIA-3 and part of that is to do an inventory which includes a thorough check as well on all our facilities serving the terminal,” he said.

“We are committed to provide efficient, adequate and reliable electric service, especially to a very vital installation like NAIA-3,” he added.

The five-hour power outage forced the cancellation of 82 domestic flights and delays in four international flights. “NAIA and Meralco are still investigating the incident,” Department of Energy director Irma Exconde said in a text message.

Goes to show that this supposedly "good" president is no different from the bad presidents before him when it comes to friends, cronies, family, etc. etc.

I remember Prisco Nilo, head of PAGASA in 2010, was unceremoniously sacked for making one wrong forecast.

Eh si Abaya, Honrado, etc. ilang kapalpakan na ba ang kinasangkutan pero nakaupo pa rin sa pwesto? Bulag ba ang presidente natin?

Tsk. Tsk. Ninoy and Cory must be turning in their graves. What a disappointment.

Sir, don't expect anything when 3 morons meet. It's a meeting of idiots. Worse, sinama pa ang Meralco & DOE sa white wash story as a result kuno ng investigation. Kung tayong taong bayan eh alam na ang root cause ng problem ay incompetence, what the hell is the investigation is for??? Just to come up with another story telling a lie.

The problem is very elementary that a grade 6 pupil can easily solve by commons sense, not even technical.

Problem Statement : Power trip resulting to no power.

Actions to be take :

1. Start all back up power generators and switch from line load to back up power.

2. 10 gensets are available but 1 cannot run. Assess load capacity of 9 gensets running and identify critical load equipment/facilities to run. Reduce (if needed) central aircon & lighting load to max out critical items
needed to run.

3. Communicate/coordinate with Meralco as to the root cause of power failure and when power can resume.

3 basic elementary steps hindi pa nila nagawa..... MGA INUTIL!

Amp! This is where I really hate Pnoy when it comes to being indecisive with his KKKs. Too much utang na loob syndrome will ultimately destroy this tuwid na daan legacy.

Thats the problem with PNoy. Di nya kaya mga kasamahan nya s a LP. Abaya should have been let go a long time ago. Party politics at its finest. Same thing will happen if Mar is elected.

Flight delays, diversions or outright cancellations due to radar outages in RPLL but affecting ALL PH airports... good luck and mahabang pasensya for those who'll be coming back from their vacations. Both cargo and passenger flights are affected


All flights avoiding PH airspace

LIST: Cancelled, diverted flights due to NAIA 'technical issues' on New Year's Day
