He noted that the report presented by the Minister at the hearing was not only the best but had also presented a clear vision on how to ameliorate the myriad of problems in the Power sector.
Senator Suswan and several other contributors at the hearing expressed their support for the Siemens deal saying that it would positively impact the sector especially the expansion of the transmission and distribution network.
The Minister in his presentation explained that the Siemens project will help to dramatically solve the problem of aligning the generation of Power with Transmission and Distribution.
