He emphasized: "My main focus is on saving gas consumption, and we hope that the people will also cooperate well in this regard." Bord urged people to maintain the ambient temperature between 18 to 20 degrees Celsius so that, through joint cooperation, desirable results can be achieved in gas consumption management.
