TEMPO Interactive, Sleman: Two villages in Sleman, Ngentak and Plupuh, located in Cangkringan sub district, became the pilots of PT Philips’ national energy-saving Bright Villages project. As of October this year, residents in these two villages use energy-saving light bulbs.

“The previous electricity bills of the two villages during May – July 2009 were Rp 5,6 million. After using energy-saving light bulbs, the bill went down to Rp 4,5 million,” said PT Philips manager for distribution in Yogyakarta, Freddy S. Budiman, yesterday.
