How Can We Manage it?
Yesterday I was just sitting before the television after a long while, browsing different channels, most of the channels were off-course telecasting News. News, of power shortage and load-shedding to overcome the problems. This made me think what have we done in recent years to generate all that energy to power our homes and Industry. And I was unable to find the answer.
Then I searched when were two of the biggest Hydro Power Projects were created and the information I came out with was shocking to me. The Terbela Dam was constructed in 1968 & Mangla in 1961. So its been almost 40 years since we have thought of getting things done for ourself.
Presently the condition is worsening and hundreds of factories have been forced to close down, and protesters take to the streets almost daily to raise their voices against the situation, but to no avail. What amazed me more are those acts government is trying to impose over the citizens to lower the usage of electricity.
Then I goggled on how to manage electricity crisis in Pakistan.... And to my further amusement it has nothing else to say but "Pakistan to seek US help to manage..."
When will we learn how to do things, when will we see the abundance of resources around us through which we can generate enough energy to power our brains and to turn the wheel of our factories. Do not we have anything with us to manage it by ourself. The question still remains in my head, "How Can We Manage it?"
