From the Business Mirror (Mar 9): Water for all: For displaced and evacuees in Patikul, Sulu



A round 30 displaced and evacuee families in Bangkal, Patikul, Sulu, receive Tulip Table Top water purifiers from Southlight Technology and Distributors Inc. and the Philippine Business for Social Progress (PBSP).

The purifiers were distributed in partnership with the 12th Civil-Military Operations Battalion of the Civil-Military Operations Regiment of the Philippine Army. The Tulip Table Top water purifiers are exclusively distributed by Southlight Technology and Distributors Inc. in the Philippines. It purifies water, making it safe for drinking and can efficiently remove 99.99 percent of E.coli bacteria and protozoa, and remove 99 percent of turbidity. The initiative supports the Army’s Preventing and Countering Violent Extremism efforts in Sulu, which aims to address the delivery of basic needs of the communities.

This is also in line with PBSP and the Water Alliance’s goal to provide water for waterless communities. In photo are soldiers distributing the water purifiers to the families in Bangkal, Patikul, Sulu.
