Vandals will pay total cost of power outage

PNG Power CEO Alex Oa said the electricity company will prosecute suspects whose actions disrupt electricity supply.       

“PPL will not hesitate to prosecute those found to be vandalising its properties and have them pay the full cost of the revenue lost during an outage, and cost of repair of the damage caused or face imprisonment.”

The statement followed a power outage last week in Port Moresby.
