    I don't know.
    One of the biggest controversies was the Marcos connection with Westinghouse. First, Marcos requested that National Power Co. (the government owned electric utility) negotiate a deal to buy two nuclear reactors. Westinghouse used connections to Marcos to strike the deal. Already known to be more expensive than other options, the Westinghouse contract jumped from $650 million for only one reactor to $2.2 billion. Later, evidence of large sums of money going to President Marcos himself was found. Westinghouse denied corruption accusations.

    No defiantly and old obsolete piece of rubbish which Westinghouse was decommissioning for the US government. Good ploy send all to the Philippines then no worry about getting expensive waste energy costs

    Our bill for August equates to P13.48/kWh - Nearly P2/kWh more expensive than Noreco II and almost daily outages. Am now seriously considering investing in solar!
