Power cuts a daily inconvenience

JAMBI, Jambi: A series of electrical power failures over the past week have frustrated residents.

Romlah, a resident of Telanaipura, Jambi, said the power failures had disrupted routine activities for between two to three hours a day.

Officials at state electricity company PT PLN's Jambi Branch could not be reached for comment on Monday.

A similar situation was faced by residents in June of this year, when they were without power for three to four hours a day. -- JP
