<p>可以放假了....现在没有网络没办法工作。</p><p>GAPORE - Telecommunications around Asia were disrupted on Wednesday, slowing Internet services and hindering some financial transactions, after earthquakes off Taiwan damaged undersea cables.<br/>Six submarine cables had been knocked out by the earthquakes, KT Corp, South Korea's top fixed-line and broadband service provider, said in a statement.<br/>'Twenty-seven of our customers were hit, including banks and churches,' a KT spokesman said. 'It is not known yet when we can fully restore the services.'<br/>Banks in Seoul said foreign exchange trading had been affected.<br/>'Trading of the Korean won has mostly halted due to the communication problem,' said a dealer at one domestic bank.<br/>The main quake, measured by Taiwan's Central Weather Bureau at magnitude 6.7 and at magnitude 7.1 by the US Geological Survey, struck off Taiwan's southern coast at 1226 GMT on Tuesday. Two people were killed.<br/>PCCW, Hong Kong's main fixed-line telecoms provider, said several undersea cables it part-owned had been damaged.<br/>'Data transfer is down by half,' a spokesman said, slowing Internet access.<br/>Some disruption was also reported in the Tokyo currency market, but the EBS system, through which much dollar/yen trading is conducted, appeared to be working, traders said.<br/>The fibre-optic cables damaged by the quakes are run jointly by KT and foreign partners. KT is providing telephone services through alternative lines but has not restored broadband services offered to some clients, the spokesman said.<br/>KDDI Corp, Japan's second-largest telecoms company, said communications along submarine cables out of Japan went through Taiwan before reaching Southeast Asian countries, which was leading to disruption.<br/>But KDDI said communications were unlikely to break down completely since there were alternative lines.<br/>Singapore Telecommunications, Southeast Asia's top phone company, said some customers were suffering slow access to Internet pages and other data.<br/>But it said traffic was being diverted and repair work was in progress, adding: 'Our submarine cables linking to Europe and the US are not affected.'<br/>Singapore's second-largest telecoms firm, StarHub Ltd, said its customers were experiencing slower connection to some international websites because of the cable problems.<br/>'We are re-routing traffic to other cables,' a StarHub spokesman said. -- REUTERS</p> |
