Aley residents facing discrimination in electric power rationing

Share:

The people of the district of Aley a stronghold of the Progressive Socialist Party ( PSP) rare reportedly facing discrimination with regards to electric power rationing .

PSP issued a statement on Saturday saying that the town of Shahar al-Gharbi and all villages of al-Gharb in the Aley district are suffering severe and unprecedented energy rationing, although no technical malfunctions have been reported in the electrical distribution networks.

The statement described the rationing as “unfair and hypocritical…that is aimed at inciting citizens against the honorable stance PSP leader MP Walid Jumblatt took regarding the energy draft bill.”

Jumblatt and his parliamentary bloc members rejected on technical grounds the draft bill that was proposed by the Change and Reform bloc leader MP Michel Aoun to transfer $1.2 billion in funds to the Energy Ministry, which is headed by Aoun’s son-in-law Gebran Bassil.

Many in Aley district are accusing Aoun and Bassil of using power rationing to force Jumblatt to change his stance o the bill.

Aley district is one of the most important summer destination for tourists who come here to escape the heat . Excessive power rationing will no doubt have a very negative impact on tourism in Lebanon

    Bassil is son-in-law of the beatch of Nasrallah, Michel.  He’s a little tin Hitler as discipled by his father-in-law.  They all think that they can do anything they want through force.  In a way, I am glad that other el-Shahhaar Christian villages do not have power because I know many are Aounist and are being punished by their own.

        ‘Public Servants’ they are NOT. Election results are thrown out to maintain the little kingdoms, and the little kings like to assert authority over even ‘their people’ to make sure the downtrodden know their place.

        Well, then Michel is the twin brother of Bassil, so another tin Hitler. Or the father-in-law is the re-incarnation of Hitler himself.

      Not to worry, the power is still distributed as usual at different electrical phase. You need to have a new transformer at your house to transfer it back to the normal 220 V- 50 hz, only Aounist receive these transformers.

  3. Who cares? As long as Aoun gets paid…. Aoun ruined Lebanon for his own personal interest so ruining a few towns and the tourism sector in those towns is nothing new. He ruined the entire economy in the entire country when they closed downtown for over a year so little towns like this are no big deal for him.
