Dear viewers of Tolo TV, you are watching the On the Road show,
and right now I am here in the power station of Kajakai district of Helmand province.
And beside me you can see the engineers and the chief of southern region's power.
Fazil Ahmad is also here with us. And right now they are about to activate the third turbine here,
which has been repaired and is about to be activated after one an a half years.
I want to congratulate the chief of Kandahar's power myself for this victory.
Thank you, I want to congratulate you and the Tolo TV employees for coming this far to meet us
and ask about our workers' situation. Right after that, you will see the activation of the turbine.
And yes, dear friends I should tell you that his victory happened by the financial help of USAID,
the American poeple and Afghanistan's government.
And now we can see that it is finished. I think we should start it and the people are also waiting.
The people who don't have the electricity facility will be really happy to see that Afghanistan will be having it now.
Thank you, now we will turn the switch and the turbines will be activated.
Now we will have more power
but still some technical stuff is left. The painting and some other small
works are left that will also be done in these days. And after that, Lashkar Gah, Helmand province
and Kandahar province will have more power.
With the grace of God, we should do it. Now in the name of Allah, one...
In the name of Almight Allah, the most merciful and compassionate
Two, three...Sire, please switch it on... Oh! Wow! Congratulations!
Congratulations, God bless our project, God bless all the engineers
that they solve the problems of Afghanistan.
We engineers, all the domestic engineers did this job and have repaired the turbine.
And also by the grace of God, we have solved these technical
and electrical problems and we will do it in the future, too.
Dear friends, this is the old turbine which was active for years and before it did serve our people
and provided electricity for our people. It became damanged because of wear and tear,
and the force of water had ruined this turbine. It had made holes in this,
which was why they were obliged to take this out and install a new turbine. What can we use this for now?
Oh! Now we can sometimes come in the evenings and sit on it like this. We can't use if for any other purpose!
But now, we have got the new turbine. And with the new turbine and new power, it will serve our people.
