Yesterday’s earthquake, just offshore Taiwan, measuring 7.1, may have affected telecommunications in neighbouring Asian countries.
Taiwan’s largest telephone company, Chunghwa Telecom Co, said damage to an undersea cable had disrupted 98% of Taiwan’s communications with Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and Hong Kong.
