Tarif Elektrik Naik Bukan Salah Kami Kata CEO TNB
Kenaikan tarif elektrik adalah satu proses rasionalisasi subsidi oleh kerajaan dan tiada kaitan dengan Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB), kata Ketua Pegawai Eksekutifnya, (CEO) Azman Mohd.
"Syarikat adalah adalah ejen pengumpul semata-mata," kata Azman kepada pemberita, selepas menghadiri majlis pelancaran memoir bekas Pengerusi TNB Ani Arope hari ini.
"Kenaikan tarif tiada kaitan dengan TNB. Tetapi kami yang dipersalahkan dalam hal ini, " katanya.
Bagaimanapun, beliau berkata kenaikan itu adalah perlu bagi proses rasionalisasi subsidi oleh kerajaan.
Tarif elektrik di negara ini telah diselaraskan untuk RM0.0499 per kilowatt jam (kWj) dan akan berkuatkuasa datang dari 1 Jan.
Oooo... bukan salah TNB tapi salah Kerajaan Barisan Nasional yang dipimpin oleh Najib rupanya...
Tapi.. kalau TNB mahu membantu meringankan beban rakyat, rasanya TNB mampu untuk menyerap apa yang Kerajaan dah potong tu..
Takkanlah untung Berbillion RM setiap tahun tak mampu nak serap.. kurangkan sikit untung tu demi rakyat, bukannya mengalihkan keseluruhan beban tambahan itu kepada rakyat.
Kalau dikatakan keuntungan itu untuk membangunkan prasarana yang baru pula.. keuntungan yang diperolehi selama berpuluh tahun ini hilang kemana?
TNB: Don’t blame us for tariff hike
BANGI: The electricity tariff hike is a subsidy rationalisation process by the government and has nothing to do with Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB), said its chief executive officer, (CEO) Azman Mohd.
“The company is merely the collecting agent,” Azman told reporters, after attending the launching ceremony of former TNB chairman Ani Arope’s memoir today.
“The tariff hike has nothing to do with TNB. But, we get blamed for it,” he said. However, he said the hike was necessary for the subsidy rationalisation process by the government.
The country’s electricity tariff has been adjusted to RM0.0499 per kilowatt hour (kWh) and will be in effect come from Jan 1.
Azman said Malaysia’s rating by Standard and Poor depended on how much subsidy the government gave.
“If the rating is high, the country will get loans much easily and harder if it is low.
“It’s not sustenable if the government continues to give subsidies,” he said.
He said the government had no other choice since the country’s deficit was approaching RM70 billion.
“However, they have to realise that with the tariff adjustment, 82% goes to fuel cost which is borne by Petronas and the government.
“We are a capital intensive business which require a lot of infrastructure which need to be replaced.
“As far as we are concerned, our role is minimal and we are not making any profit from this tariff hike,” he said ~ Free Malaysia Today
