Date of release: March 24, 2025 - Maynilad employee-volunteers and Muntinlupa City river rangers work together to remove trash from Magdaong River, collecting 172 sacks—or approximately 1,366 kilograms—of waste, including plastics, wood, and other pollutants. This cleanup is part of Maynilad’s World Water Day 2025 initiatives, which also include educational programs and the World Water Day Awards, all aimed at promoting water conservation and environmental sustainability.

In celebration of World Water Day 2025, Maynilad Water Services, Inc. (Maynilad) launched a series of activities—including cleanup drives, community outreach programs, and an awards ceremony—to promote water conservation and environmental protection.

Kicking off these efforts, Maynilad employee-volunteers, together with the Muntinlupa City government, local river rangers, and a media organization, collected 172 sacks (approximately 1,366 kilograms) of garbage during a cleanup of Magdaong River. This river feeds into Laguna Lake, a vital raw water source for Maynilad’s southern customers.

Moreover, Maynilad conducted another cleanup at Julian River in Imus, Cavite, reinforcing pollution prevention measures for Manila Bay. It has also launched the WASH UP program in Muntinlupa City, featuring medical missions to improve community health and hygiene, alongside “Daloy Dunong”, an educational initiative on sanitation, hygiene, and waste management. 

The company is also set to roll out Bigkis-Tubig, a program focused on conserving, protecting, managing and rehabilitating local water resources through community engagement and sustainable practices.

A highlight of the month-long celebration is the World Water Day Awards, where Maynilad—in partnership with the National Water Resources Board (NWRB), the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), and seven other water and environment agencies—honored individuals, institutions, and programs championing water security and environmental sustainability.

“Environmental protection is a responsibility we take seriously. Through these initiatives, we engage the public in safeguarding water resources and ensuring a sustainable future for all,” said Maynilad Chief Sustainability Officer Atty. Roel S. Espiritu.

Maynilad remains committed to protecting vital water resources while encouraging communities to take an active role in environmental stewardship.

Coco Martin and his gang give you a taste of Alaga in Astron Appliances’ debut film

by Info @Brand Zone | Mar. 19, 2025

Manila, Philippines — Primetime king Coco Martin and his whole squad star in Astron Appliances’ debut film, “Sa Kamay ng Ala Gang.”

In the film, Coco Martin is the leader of the Ala Gang, a group of men who abduct people and take them into their lair that is seated deep in Quiapo’s streets. 

Taking cues from the wildly successful prime-time drama Batang Quiapo, the film illustrates how Astron Appliances takes caring for its customers seriously through Coco Martin and his gang’s actions.

In the film, they showed how the gang used various Astron products to feed the hostage, clean his clothes, make sure he was comfortable, and show him a good time overall. This is what customers can expect when they use Astron products, the appliances will take care of you instead of the other way around.

Watch “Sa Kamay ng Ala Gang” here:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBWEkKjntcI .

For Astron Appliances, Alagang Maasahan Mo! is not just a tagline but also very much ingrained in the company’s after-sales service. 

Astron Appliances is available in select retail outlets and on Shopee, Lazada, and TikTok shops.  To know more about Astron Appliances and to experience the Alagang Astron, visit any of their retailer outlets or check them out online via Shopee and Lazada.
