MANY of us would have been dismayed by our bill from Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB) for May, and would have probably felt a sense of deja vu with our bill for June. Are we being overcharged for our electric consumption?
I averaged a monthly consumption of 520kWh before the MCO (movement control order) was implemented, amounting to RM191.50 for my February bill. Since we were confined to our homes during the MCO period, it was natural that we would consume more electricity to power our air-conditioning units, lights, computer and mobile phones.
