Hi everyone,
It's like taking me back in time - daily power cuts again huh!
I realise that the poor should be paying for electricity and shouldn't be stealing it but.....
The electricity company is charging 2000RD$ to supply power to each home in the area that my friend lives in. Her wages for 15days are 1500RD$ and that is for herself and 3 kids to live on. How on earth is she supposed to find this money?
It does not seem an awful lot of money until you compare it to what the poorer people are earning - and then it seems like a fortune.
