JAKARTA: Indonesian President Joko Widodo said the state power company PLN should have had contingency plans in place to prevent a major electricity blackout that affected the capital Jakarta and neig

hbouring provinces.

“Things that can cause this big event should not happen again in the future, ” Widodo told management during a visit to PLN headquarters. Power was lost after faulty transmission circuits triggered “cascading voltage” that caused power plants supplying electricity to the west part of Java island to disconnect, PLN said.

The blackout halted Jakarta’s mass rapid transit system and commuter lines to surrounding areas, stranding passengers who had to be evacuated from trains.
