And we thought you were on the side of the suffering millions. But then, one has to keep on earning money as much and as long as possible by all means even if it requires siding with the crooks.

Lets hope this new fellow does some good work. (1) Stop electricity thieves (2) Invest in electrical generation and transmission system with modern updated hardware (3) Make efforts to improve the customer service (4) Charge only for electricity supplied. If 100 hours load shedding in a month than reduce you electricity bill for 100 hours. Do not rip off people by charging for services not rendered. (5) If you cannot do a good job, resign before you get blamed for doing a poor job. Good luck.

Names hardly matter. It is the elite class privilege to run the country from K-Electric to PIA & WAPDA. Don’t expect results. But he is an honorable man.

It is easy sailing now for K-Electric and its Chinese buyers. But then the question remains about the lot of pending cases for reducing the electricity charges against which K-Electric has obtained stay orders during the past and which remain pending as per its desire never to resolve any issues which are meant to benefit its customers. The buyer company could do well by demanding that these cases should be resolved before the buying process is completed in their favor and all benefits which are due to the customers be passed on to them without any further delays by the seller company.
