Electricity Tariff Increase

9 posts 9 threadsMar 30, 02:00 PM 0 8 1

The Public Utilities Commission of Sri Lanka has approved an electricity rate hike effective April 1. The increase varies across different unit consumption ranges, with rates rising from 4.3% to 25% depending on electricity usage.

Another electricity tariff hike? At this rate, Sri Lankans will soon be paying more for electricity than they do for coffee. Maybe we should start a national workout program where citizens generate their own power by pedaling stationary bikes.
