Having electricity has become very important and where I’m we expect the lights to go out as soon as a strong wind passes, its frustrating because we have to start looking for torches and putting water in flasks. Generators are a good backup but its still a problem with the power company

Thank you for your reply Tebogo. It is really hard when electric supply is cut off. There are usual things like working online that we can not do. AS you said, generators are so expensive to have power supply. I just wish we have solar panel set up so we will not rely on electric power companies for our electricity.

This post struck me as soon as I saw it. I quickly looked at the name of the person to see if he/she was African or better still Nigerian. I say this because it is a common situation in Nigeria. We are so used to it, we are in a country where we generate practically everything, from water, to light, etc. During situations like this, we hold dearly to our phones which have been charged and catch up with posts, friends etc. I never like it when we do not have light, it is always so quiet and frustrating, coupled with the heat wave in our country. I’m the type that will always put on the tv when there’s light just for the noise even when no one is watching. I love the noise and the feeling of activity around me.
Don’t worry, yours didn’t last for that long, just a day. Ours could go on for days with the electrical company still coming up with outrageous bills at the end of the month. We are all so used to it, the noise of the generating sets are overwhelming, but it generates electricity is all that matters. God help us.-
It is so depressing when there’s no electricity especially at night. There should be alternative sources like solar power, or have your own generator set though it is very noisy, and still it burns gas which is bad for the environment.
Brownouts happen in our country when there are repairs being done, or when there’s strong typhoons. It is so sad to know you always have it.

I always loved when the lights went out, but that was when I was a kid but now it’s really impossible if there is no electricity. I know once we had delayed the bill payment and they had our services discontinued for the whole day, as we were not at home they straight away removed the meter. We made it back home late in the night and to our horror no lights we had to spend the whole night on candles till the next day the bill was paid and the meter back on its place. But you have made the best of what was to be done in the spare time. Instead I would have kept on moaning and crying till the electricity resumed. We also do have the same issues and that to on regular basis because the place we stay is still into development and there are frequent lights out for expanding the generators.

Time is really a great teacher. When we were young, we do not care about anything and everything, but as time passes, we mature and then we learn a lot in life. We learn to value relationships, we learn to hope for a bright future, we hope for a better life when we became so old and retire. By then we wish that time would be longer for us, to have longer life on earth. We wish for more time!

What you say is absolutely, generally the first 25 years of our time is spent understanding time and time management. The next 25 is spent perfecting how we are still not getting more time than what we would want. the next 25 is spent what we could have done better. If we are lucky to survive after this with good health the last twenty five is spent telling others in the way of teaching our experience.
What they can do and what happened when we did not do the same. The consequences we faced and the experiences which life taught us. When we tell people at this age generally we will not have a biased view. That is the greatest advantage.

Well I believe that while the Healthcare in countries of Scandinavia- Denmark, Sweden etc is very good and due to lesser population, its fully Government funded, well maintained and affordable.
Yet in US, UK etc, its costly but still accessible.As for India, it is accessible for those with deep pockets, but still it hurts.
For Middle class- a big disease means, years of hard work and saved money gone for a six.
For rest- well it is a miserable state to be in.
Govt. hospitals and clinics are mostly pathetic, and if someone falls seriously ill, its only a Godly intervention that can save them.And many countries are even worse than India, some have almost non-existent healthcare.
What we need is more citizen-to-citizens and NGOs to NGOs collaboration across the globe.
And Governments must be made accountable for Healthcare.Else, demolish all the Govt. hospitals and hand them over to citizens cooperatives who can perhaps run them better.
And Technology can play a better role, in form of Telemedicine, Employee Health Records(EHR), rationalization of expenses in private and public hospitals.
I have a lot to say, but as of now I think the citizens must get united and have more say in how Healthcare services are there in a country.-
Entirely agree with your assessment of the pathetic situation in many countries worldwide including our own dear country. They have to act fast and deliver what is due to the people. While situation is bad it is not impossible to reverse this trend. A strong will to deliver on the part of the government is a must. Government and all concerned must rise to the occasion and take up the challenge.

At least in our country,Philippines, the government gives every poor citizen free hospitalization in public hospitals; or they are enrolled in medical insurance or Philhealth which they can use even in private hospitals. Though in some areas, there are poor medical services like lack of good hospitals that are equipped with good facilities and manned by good doctors or medical staff.
One of the problems here is that many health professionals like doctors, nurses, etc. leave the country for abroad to work there for higher wages.
-
Even here in our country many finish the MBBS then go abroad to pursue higher studies and never come back once they finish masters. They search for jobs abroad and set up their house there and lead a good life for all the effort made since childhood. But governments funds their education in universities which is from tax payers money.
People are more in India and doctors are very less and now the private hospitals are trying to fill in the gap. This service has to grow more here as there is a huge potential and lot of patients are there for whom help is required. Thanks for your inputs.

I also received mine today , MArch 15, here. It is the same as what I have redeemed here last February 28.
Thankfully no deduction like what you mentioned.
I thought it would be credited 10th of March and I was even thinking of asking why it is taking time to be credited to PayPal since the 10th until I saw it in my email today.
Well, this is already a proof that this site is legit. I will tell my friends over the site so they will already come here too.
