Ternate (Antara Bali) - The organisers of Sail Morotai have ensured that the supply of electricity to the island of Morotai in North Maluku for the Sail Morotai event in September 2012 will not be disrupted.
"We will ensure that all problems relating to the supply of electricity for Sail Morotai will be taken care of prior to the international marine event. The national electricity company, PT PLN, has been fixing the problems of electricity supplies for Morotai," Sail Morotai local chairman Muhajir Albaar said in Ternate on Monday.
PT PLN has also started operating solar panels (the largest in Indonesia, with a capacity of 650 kilowatts) in Daruba, the capital of Morotai district.
Muhajir said PT PLN would also supply generators to several places connected with the event, such as Daruba airport, Daruba Harbour, and the Morotai Island Regency office.
"Therefore, people do not have to worry about electricity supply or the lack of diesel power in Morotai for Sail Morotai. Much before the event starts, the electricity problems will be sorted out," he added.(IGT/T007)
