It was a sad start to the morning to read this piece of news.
Electricity is a basic need of life. They did not want it for business, they needed it to live. Where is the compassion of TNB?
Fair, TNB is in business and is not a charitable organisation. But can a mechanism be implemented whereby instead of disconnecting the supply, the defaulting household is allocated a bare minimum of power, say to light two bulbs, to show some respect and value to life?
A more important question Ben has is ...
... why should this happen if the NEP is available to them?
Peace
"A couple and three of their children were killed when their house was destroyed in a pre-dawn fire that is believed to have been caused by a lit candle.
They were using candles because the electricity to the house had been disconnected as they could not pay the bill. ..." (Emphasis added)
