[Groucho]

The hour-long switch offs appear to have started in anger... so the fire is not the only cause.

[Nc2016]

We had an hour long power cut this morning. An improvement on the whole day I suppose, still not really acceptable.

I’m sure all these people buying the new build villas and apartments at extortionate prices will be delighted when reality hits home. By which time, they’ll have paid their money so too late!

[gates]

Had another last night for an hour thanks for telling us

[alphamike]

There have been several fires, another one today somewhere affecting power for Tatlisu/Kucuk Erenkoy. We were supposed to have a planned outage anyway betw 10 and 2 I think, don't suppose that will be cancelled.
Of course they could also be doing hourly power cuts around the country, as they have so many times in the past.

[gates]

2 yesterday why 2

[dap2410]

Malatya, we also had two cuts. One in the morning and one at 8.30pm.
If cutting the power for one hour is the ONLY solution Kibtek management can come up with to sort the problem of shortage of power supply to its customers. Then look to changing their management team, and that doesn’t mean with new family members!!!!

[Nc2016]

Yes, Tatlisu area was off before the fire.

What I don’t understand is why they don’t tell people

[waddo]

They don't tell you because knowledge is power! It is the same with water, sometimes it's on and sometimes it's not - you just have to guess which it is going to be this day or week!

[stereotomy]

I don't want to sound pessimistic but climate change at it... fires, shortages... now it's an inconvenience but soon it'll be worse.

It's a vicious cycle, more heat, more fuel needed for a/cs, fuel emits carbon, etc. etc.

[gates]

I have read that power cuts have stopped i hope

[Kanonier]

They don't tell you because knowledge is power! It is the same with water, sometimes it's on and sometimes it's not - you just have to guess which it is going to be this day or week!

Or in KibTec's world, no knowledge is no power.

[Dave G]

In the local newspaper Kib-Tec are saying everything is fixed, no more power cuts, i the same paper the unions are saying, management are telling porkies

Who do you believe ?

[tutor4u]

management are telling porkies

No Really !! Lying politicians are a product of society's devaluing of truth/


A minister told his congregation, "Next week I plan to preach about the sin of lying. To help you understand my sermon, I want you all to read Mark 17."

The following Sunday, as he prepared to deliver his sermon, the minister asked for a show of hands. He wanted to know how many had read Mark 17.
Every hand went up.

The minister smiled and said, "Mark has only sixteen chapters.

I will now proceed with my sermon on the sin of lying."

[waddo]

Ah, but Kibtek knows when they are going to turn off the power - hence knowledge is power! With the water, it seems that the Beli don't know there has been a power cut and that the pumps need to be turned back on again - or they could care less provided they are not affected - hence no knowledge is power as well - lol. Power cut on Friday - water off, Saturday no water, Sunday no water, Monday - who can tell what will happen or if there is another sudden public holiday or just it's too hot to bother..... Strange that it is like this every year....

[Dalartokat]

Yes, Tatlisu area was off before the fire.

What I don’t understand is why they don’t tell people

They are informing people on their Facebook page….this was put out 3 hours ( that’s the time on the Facebook page)

Just came back.on out for c 10 hours..

[alphamike]

It's bad enough when it's just for a couple of hours, but any longer in this heat is unbearable. Tatlisu was off for in excess of 21 hours the other day, it was absolutely horrendous. I couldn't even go out or sit with AC on in the car, as I'd lent my car to a friend for a few days. A bear with a sore head would have been friendlier!
Whilst it was awful for all of us in this area, it must have been so much worse for those dealing with the fire up in the mountains and Kibtek workers trying to restore power. I am grateful to all of them. Just shows that there is always someone much worse off.
