39More than half (53 percent) of water allocated to Maynilad continues to get wasted because of leaks and pilferage (read here)…Maherin'ny antsasany (53 isan-jato) ny rano omen'ny Mynilad no mbola mamono antoka vokatry ny fahaverezana (vakio eto)…
40There is no available data that break down NRW into leaks and pilferage.Mbola tsy misy zavatra eo am-pelantanan'y NWR azo anaporofoana mazava ny fisian'ny rano very na nisy nangalatra.
41But the continued pervasiveness of illegal connections may be explained by skyrocketing water bills due to full-cost recovery under water privatization.Kanefa ny fisian'ny fangalarana rano tsy an-kiato amin'ny fantsona dia azo porofoina amin'ny fiakaran'ny vidin-drano aloa vokatry ny famatsiana amin'ny ankapobeny taorian'ny fisitahan'ny fanjakana tamin'ny fitantanana ny rano.
42Since MWSS was privatized, Maynilad's basic charge has already soared by 449 percent and Manila Water, by 845 percent.Hatramin'ny naha tsy niankina ny MWSS, ny tobin'ny Maynilad dia nahavita nampiakatra ho 449 isan-jato ny tahan'ny hetra fototra ary ao Manille fotsiny dia tafakatra 845 isan-jato.
