The number of post for today is lighter than usual. And that’s because our internet connections are slowing down to a miserable crawl here. The reason is as follows.A snippet from Yahoo News:
Telecommunications around Asia were severely disrupted on Wednesday after earthquakes off Taiwan damaged undersea cables, slowing Internet services and hindering financial transactions, particularly in the currency market.
International telephone traffic was restricted from some countries and Internet access slowed to a crawl. Sources working with Asian telecoms providers said it could take several weeks before all the cables were repaired.
Never expected an earthquake in Taiwan to have such a huge impact on the internet networks of the region. Hope this issue will be resolved soon. In the meantime, we will try our best to continue publishing. Please bear with us.
