MANILA – Five days after Typhoon Glenda (international code name Rammasun) churned through the province of Luzon, approximately 280,000 Meralco customers are still without power.

According to Meralco spokesperson Joe Zaldarriaga, over 13,000 of these homes are in the Metro Manila area.

Zaldarriaga added that some areas will still be affected by rotating brownouts between the hours of 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., as the electric company continues its efforts to restore powe4r to all affected areas.

Typhoon Glenda (Rammasun) was the strongest storm so far to hit the country this year.
