Akhir 10, 1432, March 15, 2011, SPA --The main electricity provider for the Tokyo region resumed power rationing Tuesday to avoid large-scale blackouts caused by power shortages after last week's devastating earthquake, which damaged several nuclear power stations. The Tokyo Electric Power Co (TEPCO) cut power to parts of the prefectures of Tochigi, Gunma, Saitama and Kanagawa for several hours starting at 7 am (2200 GMT Monday). The cuts affected 45 million people in Tokyo and eight other prefectures, according to a report of DPA.
