Work on the restoration of power supply into the Upper Highlands Region is still ongoing as of this afternoon. PNG Power expects to have the work completed tomorrow (Wednesday) afternoon and have full power supply restored to the Upper Highlands Region townships of Kundiawa, Minj, Banz, Mt Hagen, Ialibu, Mendi and Wabag. We would also like to correct the misleading headline put out on the front page of one of the dailies (Tuesday February 8) stating that the power outage will be off for an indefinite period. We would like to assure the general public affected by this outage that we are working around the clock to restore full power supply from the Ramu Hydropower Station as quickly and safely as possible by tomorrow. Challenges on the site of the damaged power pylons have delayed work by a few days but we expect to have full power supply restored for our consumers and business houses in the Upper Highlands Region. The act of sabotage on our tower 101 power pylon at Dumum Village, Chimbu Province for reasons only know to the locals has disrupted power supply to these townships and PNG Power is calling on the provincial authorities in these areas to assist stop this continuous act of vandalism and service disruption.
