Earlier this afternoon, most of KL and the southern peninsula of Malaysia experienced power blackout - supposedly due to a power trip at the Port Klang Power Station (according to The Star)
The outage lasted about a couple of hours at my residential area - the slow return of power could perhaps be due to TNB unable to deploy mobile generator units as our country is on a diesel shortage
I actually called my mom (she was out) earlier to ask her to buy some candles should the power outage continues into the night

Nationwide BlackOut
And I had 3 agonising hour without broadband, tv, and blogs for the first time in months. And to think what would’ve happened in hospitals, stock markets, and shopping centres…

We experience it here too in Nilai for about an hour plus.

Hospitals would have their own generator sets. The bigger shopping centres might have. Not sure about Bursa Malaysia (ex KLSE).
