Senator Sherwin Gatchalian has joined calls for a congressional inquiry into the alleged forceful take over of the Bengue Electric Cooperative (BENECO) offices to shed light on the circumstances leading to changes in its management.

Senator Sherwin Gatchalian has joined calls for a congressional inquiry into the alleged forceful take over of the Bengue Electric Cooperative offices to shed light on the circumstances leading to changes in its management.said he is preparing to file a Senate resolution on the matter“Our concern is the stability in that area. Baguio is a highly urbanized city and we don’t want them to experience brownouts because of this commotion,” Gatchalian said in a recent Senate hearing on the proposed P3.

During the hearing, NEA Administrator Emmanuel Juaneza assured the Senate energy panel that “there’s no more trouble in the area insofar as BENECO is concerned.”But Gatchalian said an internal analysis of BENECO’s current mess showed that it was NEA that did not follow its own memorandum insofar as succession mechanism and selection process is concerned when it appointed Rafael as the new general manager.

“We don’t want NEA, the supervisor of all ECs, to be imposing people over a well-run, functioning coop and that is not the intention of the law,” Gatchalian said.
