Whatelse?
Today at 4 PM, the water company turn off their service. Three days ago, the caretaker of the apartment complex announced this. The water supply will resume tomorrow at 5 AM.
And yet another announcement. The PLDT/Smart announced their 5-day maintenance. They said they will do their best to still provide service but there will be latency.

But I think that will be only for their international network.

They will have maintenance here but they will try to still provide service during the 5-day maintenance.

Hope you get through both without much trouble.
The PLDT maintenance is big considering a good majority if studying and working online.

So I heard with PLDT. My children's school announced it also so they will not have a lot of love closes but more on the self paced activities.
Last week, we also have some water interruptions but I am thankful that it is usually at night time

It is their provider who have a maintenance. Per announcement, it is the Asia America Gateway submarine cable something that needs maintenance. I think all internet provider here are connected to that main server.

I hope it is going to be okay. The water outage is due to the network maintenance
