I wonder if Eskom has factored in that a kWh supplied costs say R1, but a kWh not supplied costs about R70. Or maybe, like PRASA, whose performance in Cape Town is way below their national average "performance", or the police dept, who 3 years after the Khayalitsha Commission, have done nothing there, Eskom and national govt are trying to sabotage the Western Cape in whatever way they can.
And the fact that the concentration and frequency of fires in and around Cape Town is not evenly mirrored across the whole province or even in other towns is clear evidence of sabotage.
