BANGKOK, Jan 5 (TNA) – Three
major cell phone
operators in Thailand
are now resolving their network
disruptions following the impact of
tropical storm ‘Pabuk’.
The National
Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) on Friday
urgently invited the three operators including Advanced
Info Services Public Co., Ltd. (AIS), True and the DTAC for
discussions on Friday after their networks could not
operate as usual due to power
failure in several southern districts of
Nakhon Si Thammarat province.
It is expected that communications between mobile
phone users in the South could return to normal if electricity supply resumes
as normal.
Mobile phone users in affected areas are allowed to
make calls for 50 minutes and use one-gigabyte Internet service free of charge until
Sunday. (TNA)
