    Metro Manila water-concession contract controversy

    In late 2019, President Rodrigo Duterte threatened arrest of prominent figures associated with Maynilad and Manila Water amid accusations including syndicated estafa and economic sabotage. The political confrontation followed an international arbitration ruling involving Manila Water and contributed to renegotiation of the concession arrangements and subsequent legislative action affecting Maynilad.
