CEB is one of the lackadaisical semi government entities which is running loss forever. Higher ranking engineers and other staff officers are always thinking about their perks and benefits. They are never concerned about general public. Sometimes this outage might be a saboteur attempt Therefore the government should thoroughly probe into this island wide outage

Useless government, they take measures only after the horse is bolted. 1000 talks , not an ounce of practice.

This thing should be privatized. If green test can be done by pvt sector, then any government business can be done by pvt sector.

Its time that Engineers responsible for providing continuous power are identified for their lapses and kicked out. This has gone too far where the CEB has become a carnival for all these National Qualified incompetent Engineers manning very significant positions that require proper skill

Possibly sabotage by the country's corrupt elements who are hellbent on destabilizing the government. Dear President AKD, it's time you started flexing your presidential muscles.
