I've used those Chinese multiple power outlet towers that have been designed to accept power cables from around the world.
Unfortunately, these things are infuriating to use, since plugs don't make proper contact and work loose over time. Also, they have too thin bases, that make it all too easy for the tower to topple over. Plug Packs are hard to position and sometimes they just won't work!
I've designed a far better solution, that can have your country's power outlets in vertical orientation, with individual switches for each power point and a single LED Switch that controls the four power points of each level. The Holders are modular, and can simply be bolted together.
To ensure that the holders will never work loose from the base, I've used 3mm Nyloc lock nuts. Every power Point is held onto the holders with 3mm bolts and hexagonal nuts held inside the plastic, so power points won't work loose, but can be tightened without the fear of stripping the threads from the plastic
