The economy in Northern Mariana Islands(Saipan) is in very low situation now. The people who worked in gartment factories leave to their home place, and more people going offisland. Also the decrease of tourists is another reason. The Commonwealth Utilities Corporation(CUC) had double the power rate. That may hurt many people, companies, and stores in Northern Mariana Islands.
The economy and power rate affect my life. I have to decrease the time of using computers and air conditiner. No one told me to do that, but I decided by myself. Now the bills that we pay to CUC is around 200 dollars. But for next month it's 400 dollars if we use like before. So many companies turn the air conditioner on when the customers visit them. Like my dad's company, we have to turn on the air condtioner all day. If we don't do that the machine might explode.
I think the power outage is the worst thing to students. During school days the power goes off, so sometimes the school tells students to go home. Some classes does not have window so they had to open the door inorder to get a light. And there was issue going on about no power for week. But the government bought the fuel, so were saved.
