No power supply in Serpong?

No power supply in Serpong?

From Republika

I am an elementary school teacher and plan to move with my family to Lengkong Gudang Timur village in Serpong district, Tangerang, where we will build a small house of our own.

On June 3, I sent an application for 1,300-VA electricity supply to state-owned power firm PLN's Serpong branch. On July 5, I received the reply that the area's supply was suspended because the local power station had reached 94 percent of its capacity.

I responded by asking how long my family would have to wait. So far, there has been no answer.

It is my hope that PLN's head office will instruct the Serpong branch to increase the local power station's capacity, so that the interests of Serpong people will be properly served, rather than harmed.
