This isn't something you'd associate with Philippines - thought it'd be an interesting article for here (as posted on AsiaPrep). More than six million people have been affected by a water shortage in large areas of the Philippine capital and a nearby province, with long lines forming for rationed water and businesses and some hospitals struggling to cope after faucets ran dry. A spokesman for Manila Water Co. Inc., Jeric Sevilla, said Thursday that water supplies will be cut for at least six hours a day for an estimated 6.8 million people in more than a million households until the rainy season fills dams and reservoirs in May or June. www.news.com.au/world/asia/philippines-water-shortage-causes-taps-to-run-dry-for-six-million/news-story/663155a7351806f11e5e4a2d845be235

Hopefully society remains orderly through this test!
On a related tangent ... I got an uncle living in the phillipenes. Owns a completely self sufficient estate, with staff, on Bohol. Wasn't his intent but turns out he's a hard-core 'prepper'.
