Becomes the next problem, right? Because a lot of the political ideology actually is very, very similar, particularly from the splinter parties that have broken away.

Influence or more business focus, but unfortunately, the party always wins by the sounds of it and by the looks of it, regardless of the person's statue or business acumen. But yeah, it's quite sad though. And yeah, when you use Donald Trump as an example, I don't know if he's by any means, but yeah, anyway, great topic. All right, let's go to the lines. XDK from Santon, go ahead. Hi, good afternoon.

But it's like opposite Eastgate and McDonald's, right above that area. All right. What difference do you think this makes being recognized like this as Houting's greatest kids' party place? It's great. I think the coffee shop owner or person here did mention that sometimes you don't even pay attention to all these nominations and whatever the case is. We just focus.

Question is: Are the people who do this cable theft get arrested or City Power just uses money to repair and life continues? The damage of Alexandra Station is very huge. I was there on Wednesday. Now, lady says, electricity went off on Sunday night and came back Wednesday night, went off again yesterday, and we're still hoping for Jesus to come back almost the whole week without electricity. Please call Mangena.
14 distributors, which should really give us up to about 65 to 70 percent of supply to most of those that are not yet. Currently, we are sitting at 45 percent, but because of the extent of the damage, it's we cannot do up to 100 percent anytime between today and tomorrow. So, we're expecting that power may be restored in the inner city at Central Substation on Monday. So, in Alex, we're here currently at Alexandra Substation where the teams are busy.
I just want to give an update on the central substation because it's also one of the soap points. There were fires. There were fires yesterday there. I just came back from there. Now I'm at Alexandra, where Alexander substation also had some cable theft that happened. So on both of the two central substations, the teams are finalizing some of the tests on one of the feeder boards. And then from there, we will try to energize some about
