For the man in the know, he would read this caption with some sarcasticism. For those who has little knowledge about what is happening with our utility provider, they will take my "words" for it..
I've suddenly fallen head over heels in love with SESB when power supply suddenly went of this morning. I was halfway on my report writing, putting in some final touch on my flickr pictures and some unsaved documents. Puff! and they're all gone. It so happened that I've just removed my UPS for battery replacement, and by the way, UPS should not be a necessity if I was located in Klang Valley. Poor me, poor Sabahan, poor SESB? Yeah, falling in love, if you'd get what I was coming at.
.
Just to remind ourselves of SESB's pledge back in April 2009 - "that power ration is imminent due to damages in our generators in Tenom and Labuan, plus IPPs' equipment failures at several locations. We are working very hard to put these generators back into operations and we estimate that repair works would be completed by June 2009".
.
One may understand it differently but that's what I can deduce from what's reported in the local dailies.
.
Okay, two to three months is fair enough. What about now? It is already mid-August. Hmm, so much for a top notch planning and excellent services. Should stop boosting about your improved power-failure-rate-per person because I know it has "improved" very very much over the last few years! One can quote what he wants but the bottom line is we have to put a stop to this power ration a.k.a load-shedding.
.
Let's see, our plan is, (or rather SESB's plan):
Mar/Apr 2009 - old/rotten equipment failed, power ration implemented
June 2009 - Critical repair completed and power back to Normal
August 2009 - That's current! And power shedding is still a nuisance!
December 2009 - What's next?
.
In that sense, I'd say CONGRATULATIONS TO SESB, ON A JOB WELL DONE!
