As a result, Energy Transition and Water Transformation Deputy Minister Akmal Nasrullah Mohd Nasir said a total of 627,491 accounts have faced electricity disconnection with Selangor, Kuala Lumpur, Perak, Johor and Terengganu recording the highest number of accounts and arrears during this period.
因此，能源轉型和水轉型副部長阿克馬爾·納斯魯拉·穆赫德·納西爾表示，累計有627,491個帳戶在這個階段遭遇了電力斷供，其中雪蘭莪、吉隆坡、霹靂、柔佛和登嘉樓的帳戶和欠款數量最高。
"Delays in payment are often due to financial difficulties, negligence or irresponsible behaviour. Many accounts are registered under tenants or non-property owners and there is a prevailing attitude of prioritising TNB payments last," Akmal said during the questions for oral answers session in the Dewan Rakyat today.
阿克馬爾在今天的國會口頭答覆環節中表示：「支付延遲通常是由於財務困難、疏忽或不負責任的行爲。許多帳戶註冊在租戶或非物業所有者名下，普遍存在將TNb付款優先級放在最後的態度。」
He was replying to a question from Kota Melaka MP Khoo Poay Tiong regarding the number of electricity disconnection cases by TNB due to unpaid bills and accumulated arrears.
他在回答來自馬六甲市國會議員許寶良關於因未付款和累計欠款而導致TNb電力斷供案件數量的問題時作出上述回應。
Under the Electricity Supply Act 1990 and the Licensee Supply Regulations 1990, TNB is authorised to recover unpaid amounts through reminders and discussions with users. If no resolution is reached, disconnection of the electricity supply is carried out as a last resort.
根據1990年電力供應法和1990年許可供應條例，TNb被授權通過提醒和與用戶數的討論來追討未付款項。如果無法達成解決方案，電力供應的斷供將作爲最後手段進行。
