Saving the fiber break

Due to the strong earthquake that hit Taiwan and neighboring countries couple of days ago, Taiwan's largest phone company, Chunghwa Telecom, has contracted three boats from Britain, Japan and Singapore to take workers to the zone where the fiber break happens. Telecommunications operators in Taiwan and Hong Kong warned that although service would be gradually restored thanks to such re-routing of networks, fixing the widespread problems could take as long as three weeks. I am really glad Philippines is not greatly affected by this quake and blogging still continues.
