- Hey Wick, smile! Today is party day!
- Why smile? I found out I owe a big debt to the electricity company.
- But your bills are up to date.
- Thing is the bills of my former flat are still in my name, despite there’s someone else living there.
- To avoid this problem, update your register when moving.

CSPE Ombudsman Service

(for the technical copy, click on the image)

CSPE was a public ombudsman for Electricity Company issues.

Strategy: "Paraffin and Short Wick" was a comic created to inform the population about their rights and how to make them prevail, using layman uncomplicated language. The eye-catching comic was created as an alternative to boring technical leaflets. The candles represent the power cut, and are portrayed in situations where candles are used.

(In Portuguese, "short wick" is also a slang for "short temper").
