6. Eish Buh Dis Goverment

7. You whine and blame the government because there is no rain. And then go and cut down trees. This will also cripple our tourism sector which means less money. This all starts by pour education.

13. The government should think of providing green energy through subsidies.

    1. I agree with you brother!that’s the only way,we cant talk of reduced escom tarrifs now because even if this were to happen Escom will find another excuse not to connect many consumers in time
       Subsidized green energy is the only best and timely option,unfortunately nobody pays attention.It is so sad to see our once beautiful environment being destroyed at an alarming rate as if we have a spare country to move to once we are through with this one

58. If found, they should be heavily fined

    1. And After Heavily Fined They’ll Carry On Burning Even Most.Solution To Stop This Practice Starts From The Government Itself By Making Energy Affordable To Everyone.Look Wity,We Are The Same People Who Are Suffering Intensive Blackouts Day In And Day Out And We Are The Same People Too Hit By Electricity And Energy Tarrif Rise.We Don’t Have Other Options But To Depend On Charcoal.I Believe These Charcoal Burners Know Somebody Is In Dire Need Of Energy Somewhere And Will Buy Their Product At Any Cost.See,They’re Not Even An Inch Wrong Because There’s No Other Way We Can Fight This Situation Back Without Government’s Serious Intervention To Simplify Our Daily Dependance On Energy.
