URGENT: Bangladesh Coal Shortage

[KLOL506]

KingTempest made one for the East Coast of the United States so I will make one for my countrymen of Bangladesh.

As you have read the news, we are recently undergoing a massive halting of power generation because a lot of our coal plants have shut down due to massive coal shortages stemming from the Russo-Ukraine war, as a result, gas prices are also rising steadily and electric bills are going up. We expect this month to be marred with intense blackouts and load-shedding combined with the already-unbearable heat wave that has been plaguing the country for weeks.

In cases of a blackout, walk carefully, always have a flashlight in hand, keep your refrigerators closed, keep backup power sources to keep your phones alight and keep your stoves closed.

Coal shortage: Power generation may halt at another unit of Payra

Operation of another unit of 1,320 MW coal-fired Payra Power Plant is going to be suspended soon due to coal shortage, according to Bangladesh-China Power Company (Pvt) Limited (BCPCL) officials

That is a decent start at least; though going to be a long time coming before modernization hits with renewable stuff or if at all.

Hahahahahaha... no.

India's dammed up the water sources and is at conflict with China over that. Damming up the world's largest river delta will only cost us habitable land via floods.

 

[Antvasima]

Hmm. So what do you think needs to happen to solve the situation?

 

[KLOL506]

Nothing. Nothing at all. We're already opening up our ports to Indian authorities, we have a refugee crisis down south regarding the Rohingyas and we have extreme political instability plus religious extremism to boot, if not the looming threat of the country going underwater in the next 30 to 70 years.

 

[Antvasima]

I am very sorry to hear that.

I hope that you and your family will be able to emigrate to a more stable country if necessary.

 

[BoastJr]

Yes Gas Prices have gone up and it has impacted alot of businesses and general use unfortunately

We had power shortages here and even oddly enough water shortages too for a while.

Fortunately some universities switched to Online Sessions so at least students can take rest at home.

Please stay safe.
