Power Cut Tips And Timetables.

Please note that this was posted in 2012 and no longer applies. For the 2016 Power Cut Timetable please follow the link.

Here’s a quick rundown of 10 things you can do during a power cut. This is relevant because Sri Lanka is going to be seeing daily power cuts for the first time in years. This has happened because coal and thermal power plants have broken down and there isn’t enough rain to power hydro power plants. The end result is that Sri Lankans have to go without, but that doesn’t mean you have to go without fun. There are ten tips in the video above, and the power cut timetable below.
