MANILA - The Philippines is "not ready" to use nuclear power as an energy source, a senator said Wednesday, adding more should be done to prepare for potential risks.
"Saan natin itatapon ang nuclear waste? Pag may leakage ano ang gagawin natin? Meron ba tayong capability? Handa ba tayo in case of a nuclear leak?" he told reporters.
Half the country has regular blackouts. Filipinos can learn the requisite skills in time for nuclear plants to be built. Country-wide, 24/7 power could provide a huge boost to productivity and wealth. Maybe need to start with some new Senators.
