Sri Lanka: Minister blames monkey for nationwide power cut
The outage is yet to be fully fixed, meaning hospitals and other buildings are having to use generators.
Is the minister named Peter Gabriel?
This is why it's important to operate with enough available reserves (fast and slow) to cover the unexpected loss of your biggest generator, transformer, and/or transmission line.
Their black start procedures are going to be getting a good workout; I hope they're well tested.
Yeah, well monkeys can point fingers too you know.
I have to agree with the sentiment expressed by the social media posts shown in the article. If your country's electricity infrastructure is so fragile that a monkey could take it offline then it's probably time to take a hard look at investing in improving its resilience.
Poor guy is having a hard time coping with all the media attention. It was an accident!!!
haha
Whoah, whoah, whoah, whoah...
Monkey OK?
I bet everyone else is saying the same, but about the minister
