Hi! Everyone. I'm nick. Hope we may become friends through this forum.

I'm wondering about the market of electrical meters in south africa.
Since South africa is a developed and rich country, how come the prepaid meter market is so small? Is it the condition that the goverment regards the electricity as a kind of welfare to let the people use electricity freely?

I saw many kinds of prepaid meters in south africa. So here comes another problem. Why the goverment of South africa don't raise a tender to call the good companies together to unify the meters in South Africa?
