I can surely understand the frustration about being without electricity for so long, but it is also not hard to understand the priorities at Noreco when restoring. Their latest report still shows thousands of households without power in Bayawan, Sta Catalina, Tanjay and Pamplona, probably in much more densely populated areas. For Valencia they report 100 households without power, presumably all of those in sparsely populated areas.
I would say that if you choose to live in an area like that, you implicitly accept that you're going to be low priority in the aftermath of a widespread disaster.
It still sucks that it takes so long though, I agree.

 

I agree Mike, however, the assistance should then come from an electric cooperative elsewhere in the country where there's no storm damage to repair, rather than from a neighbouring cooperative that's still struggling themselves.

 

I'm wondering how few Noreco I customers have access to fresh water for drinking. They did take a more direct hit from Odette so it makes sense that they have much more damage to their grid. If there are more people not within driving or delivery distance of drinking water, I would agree getting them power to run their well pumps is a higher priority.
