SHAH ALAM: The spike in electricity bills during the movement control order (MCO) is due to more Malaysians staying at home, says Tenaga Nasional Bhd (TNB).

Its chairman Datuk Seri Mahdzir Khalid said many Malaysians were staying at and working from home during the MCO period, which began on March 18.

"There were also some who returned to their kampung during the school holidays and were stranded there. Mahdzir added that during the MCO, the usage of electricity in residential sectors saw an increase of between 20 and 50 percent. He said there were some consumers who used social media as a channel to state their confusion on the high electricity bills and questioned the adjustment methods used by TNB.

Get the men out to housing estates to provide bills. The same is applicable to water. Can't just sit on your ass and simply charge us!

Jangan kata pasal tnb pon dia bodoh,pasal tenaga solar utk skolah sarawak pon dia bodoh gak.

Ya so you know now, so what are you going to do to help Rakyat

Yup keep squeezing rakyat. If oil price is down and we have been asked to stay home who should provide discount. The discount limit to 600kw does not make sense higher middle class and rich people also facing financial difficulties

Nasib baik dia tak suruh pakai tenaga solar😅

Logic la kalau dh stay at home tu. This is not rocket-science la

I’m going to stay outside more

Who forces Malaysians to stay at home more?

Dah tu? Nak kami kluar rumah ke?

Kalau nk cerita logic, jom cerita logic: 1) Semenjak PKP start, parents & sedara jauh dah xboleh nk dtg melawat, so aircond guestroom xpernah on. 2) Stall pastry kami xboleh nk jln lg, so chest freezer pun dah off sbb xperlu guna. Then nape bill xturun? Naik sket ade la. 🤔🤔

Duh .....

Ni jea tugas pengerusi GLC yg gaji puluh2 ribu....baca kenyataan medai jah la

Its MCO? Why so dumb. Rakyat want a solution. Rakyat is going thru a difficult time now. What's the point of appointing this fat salary guy and yet can't even understanding what Rakyat is expecting from gomen. What a waste of gomen money in putting him there..!!

Ni lah akibat bila ada satu je syarikat utiliti pembekalan tenaga Elektrik

Better give discount to all household

Exactly.. And rebate isn't going anywhere..

TNB dah bagi diskaun kan. Jana elektrik pun kosnya tinggi perlu import bahan api. Lain lah air sumber alam semulajadi. Ingat tenaga elektrik ni boleh simpan mcm paip air ke? Adoi

Menteri² PN semua pon x leh pakai kepala otak..nak harapkan Dr Nor Hisham sorg jelah.

Simple explanation! Rakyat semua bodoh. Menteri yang pandai. Ask him how in the world did he come out with this conclusion?

Inilah bila ada macai jaga. Tak tau jangan cakap. Suruh pegawai tinggi tnb yg jawab. Kita nak penjelasan bukan pengeliruan.

Jawapan umno

Yup, most of us are not conscious with electricity energy savings...😑

jwpn standard dari dulu jgn mkn ayam klu harga naik semuasalahrakyat

Jawapan macam orang bodoh! Pangkat nak tinggi n gaji besar!

Tgh tunggu jawapan kalau tak mau bil letrik tinggi jgn pakai letrik

This is a joke!

Do Tenaga_Nasional thinks we like to stay home on purpose. Lol 2%

Its time TNB to be profit orientated when its govt owned. MCO is a stressful period where utilities should be free!

Paling best..dah bayar sampai bulan 4 tiba-tiba dia pusing Ada tunggakan..rumah Tak Ada econ,kipas sailing 4..tv jrg bukak..ke guna wifi TM bersangkut dgn tnb?..jibakeeee

Mudah nya dia punya rumusan.dia ni kan ade kes mahkamah pasal subahat ngn najib

🤯🤯🤯

Mereka ini tak pernah membantu rakyat.

The rebate should have been calculated like this. Applies to all charging blocks. Not the more you use the lesser discounts you'll get. What a capitalist!

No shit sherlock

Kan alasan paling bodoh penyamun² umno

takat jawapan mcm ni baik aku je jadi yg jadi chairman jilake tul bagi la diskaun 20% ke baru la ok takde rasa sgt bill tinggi

Are you telling me the hospital is full of kids because of MCO?

Patut pkp ni bagi lah discount. Dah tiap2 tahun untung berbillion ringgit

Ke sebab nak byr gaji kau yg tinggi tu..
