The article focuses on Parliament Member Fared Al-Biyada's protest against the government's decision to raise the prices of residential electricity tariffs by an average of 12%. This is the fifth such increase since July 2021, with cumulative hikes ranging between 50% and 100% over five years. Al-Biyada calls for the suspension of the decision until the government presents detailed data, precise costs, and sector losses to Parliament for review. He emphasizes that the increase comes at a time of high inflation, which further erodes households' purchasing power. He also underscores the importance of revealing the cost components, reducing losses, and exploring alternatives before raising prices. Furthermore, he advocates for protecting low-income individuals and studying the social and economic impacts of the increase. He concludes by urging the government to find solutions within institutions, reduce waste and losses, rather than burdening citizens with the financial strain.
