Announcement by Office of the Communications Authority
******************************************************
Attention TV and radio duty announcers:
Please broadcast the following appeal from the Office of the Communications Authority immediately and repeat it at suitable intervals:
In view of the inclement weather, members of the public may be eager to contact relatives and friends by phone or through social media or instant messaging via broadband services. This can cause serious congestion in the telecommunications networks. If your phone calls cannot get through instantly or you experience very slow broadband services, please try again later to avoid further burden on the networks. Please stay alert to TV and radio broadcasts for the latest news and information about weather conditions.
