Lay theologian Wilson Amad proposed utilizing Lake Lanao as a primary water source to mitigate drought risks across Mindanao during the anticipated Super El Niño.
Amad recommended installing gravity-fed pipeline networks, describing the infrastructure as a cost-effective alternative that could generate municipal revenue for Marawi City while delivering irrigation and drinking water.
He criticized temporary conservation advisories such as relying on household water buckets, calling on national authorities and the BARMM government to establish long-term agricultural water management infrastructure.
