If you read the Phuket News story, the three days are three different areas. It's likely your area will only be without power for one day, which has been the norm for the past few years.

 I take little interest in what happens in Chiang Mai- what is your fascination with a small story that affects a very limited area of Phuket? 

 

Why would we get compensation for a 9-5 blackout whilst upgrades are conducted, the other two blackouts are limited to two short periods. All are occurring in very small areas within Kamala.

 

The PEA in Phuket have been working extremely hard over the past 18 months upgrading the electric supply all over the island, including increasing the kw supply to the island (doubling it in fact). 

 

Far easier to complain about things for some people than actually be acquainted with the facts.

I take little interest in things related to CM either but it sounds like you have appointed yourself the areas post police for some absurd reason  ????
