Singapore DPM Wong: PM Lee to stay on as senior minister after handover, bigger Cabinet changes ‘likely only after GE’A Sesco’s meter inspection personnel shows the direct-tapping cables being used to steal electricity from the incoming mains. ― The Borneo Post picKUCHING, April 17 ― More than half of electricity theft cases linked to cryptocurrency mining in Sarawak were reported in Miri, said Sarawak Energy Bhd .
SEB’s operations arm Syarikat Sesco Bhd , in a joint operation with the police, found electricity theft activities occurring in shophouses and residential units in Pujut and Jalan Miri-Bintulu.“During the raids, Sesco’s meter inspection team discovered direct-tapping cables being used to bypass the meters and illicitly obtain electricity from the incoming mains.
The SEB said despite Sarawak having one of the most competitive tariffs in the region, the high energy demand of cryptocurrency mining often drove operators to resort to electricity theft to lower their costs. It also cautioned against service providers promising cheaper electricity bills, as Sesco’s technical teams are well-trained and equipped to detect various forms of electricity theft.
