It is becoming quite clear that some
within the CEB have created, exploited, profited and pimped themselves with
this power crisis.
It is very sad to think that CEB
Engineers who are the highest paid public servants, even more than the Supreme
Court’s Chief Justice, and certainly more than the PM and President should
behave in this very shoddy way, to bring their Country into a crisis, and put
our economy at risk as many companies have to fulfill export orders, which with
BOI Zones also affected by the Power Outages has caused a general lack of
confidence in the economy.
If you were a potential foreign
investor, and you heard about the recent power cuts, and inability of the Govt.
to pinpoint the cause you would be highly suspicious of Investing in Sri Lanka,
as NO ONE wants to take the blame nor admit failure, so that corrective action
can be taken.
Just read the link below to determine
for yourself
I would beg the reader, without
believing a word I say, check out all the links above and make their own
conclusion on who is wrong in this matter. It is a huge embarrassment to the Govt.
that is fighting on all fronts, to sort out messes created NOT by them, but by
the previous administration. However Mahinda Rajapakse quite cleverly has been
able to deflect the blame back to the Govt. as they appear still to be behaving
like bungling idiots in this area.
No wonder then that the public sincerely
believe this is the fault of the Govt. and not due to the faulty premise on
which Norochcholai was sold to the people, and a whole host of bungling
failures on the part of the MR administration, that only emerged during a particularly
sticky and crisis situation, caused by people using excessive power in this heatwave
that put further pressure on dwinding supplies!
We need the Minister of Power to give a clear
message in simple words to allay our fears.
