Inaccurate statement[edit]

"a power outage in 5 villages of Tagong Township" -- This statement implies that electrical power in that area is otherwise reliable. It most certainly is not, as a resident told me in late 2018. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:285:400:7F00:C8A2:169F:AC76:717A (talk) 15:38, 15 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

That fact is cited in the article. I am unable to read the source myself, so I have to assume good faith that it does support that information. To change the article, we would need another source that states clearly that the information is false, as we cannot rely on anecdotal accounts. Mikenorton (talk) 21:10, 15 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
