Power outages are coming up this week in these Yangon townships

Yangon authorities have announced a series of power outages across the city on Saturday and Sunday, as planned upgrades are carried out.

New power cables are being installed in East and North Yangon for safety reasons, according to the Voice.

So here’s when the cuts are scheduled:

Botataung and Pazuntaung Townships: July 16, between 10am and 2pm

Thaketa, Dawbon, Pazuntaung and Botataung Townships: July 17 between 10am and 2pm.

Yes, that’s two days in a row for the East downtown area. Sorry guys.
