These towns don't get load-shed

A Sunday Times report has uncovered two towns in South Africa that have never experienced load-shedding.

 

[Chris.Geerdts]

One way to become very unpopular would be to list here other towns not being loadshed

Why these towns haven't experienced load shedding thus far...

"Kleinzee has not yet been officially transferred to the Nama Khoi municipality, and Koingnaas was only transferred to the Kamiesberg Council in 2016"

Until recently they have been privately managed by DeBeers.

Give it time and they will be down to the rest of the country's level.

Yip, Eskom are on it:

You can add this one in a few years:

Call to action that there is still something to steal?

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

Kleinzee and Koingnaas, situated in remote areas of the Northern Cape, have a combined population of under 1,000

That's about to change very quickly...

That's when Kleinzee and Koingsnaas get renamed to Kleinpielzeemonster and Naas-se-Naaikooi

I have been to places like Kathu and Kuruman, and its surroundings, there are some real larney people around there. It is also the places which best show the divide between the rich and poor, than the cities which are always targeted.

I was taking the pi$$ out of epah.

But yes, I grew up in a small town and there was a huge difference between rich and poor.
Unfortunately I was on the lower scale.

Time to move to Koim.... Koinaa.i...Kaasnoo... Naaskaas...Koningnaas...?
Phok, Koingnaas?

I mean ... there's even a firepool and a helicopter pad/soccer field/desert garden/drift track/rocket launchpad.
Notice the lack of trash blowing around.

Also, if you were to go renewable there you won't even need solar panels, I'm sure if you just leave your three-prong plug in that godforsaken sun it'll power whatever's at the other end.
