Prasa, train disservice

Plans to further collapse the struggling economy is well on its way with train commuter service, Prasa, not paying their electricity bills.

In an IOL article with the headline "Battling Prasa grateful City of Cape Town delays disconnection for train commuter's sake", reporter Okuhle Hlati writes: 

Cape Town – Uncertainty over the train service in the metro persists as the Passenger Rail Agency of SA (Prasa) still faces being disconnected by the City for failing to meet its financial obligations.

Power at all Prasa offices and facilities was expected to be cut yesterday by City officials, who cited municipal rates and services debts of R114 million by Prasa.

“We are grateful that the City has not cut our electricity supply because that would have undoubtedly affected the City’s train commuters.

“Our message to the City is that Prasa is going through a cash flow crunch,” said Prasa spokesperson Makhosini Mgitywa.

He said efforts to resolve the situation were being made.

The ULA has also been making efforts over the last 8 years to resolve the situation and now waits upon us, to make an effort and get the 2 million mandates to www.ulacongress.com by telling 1 person about the ULA every day: There is a solution if you want it!
