Somehow I am writing this post since I am also getting affected from this problem. So let me tell you the problem; the problem is that the major Undersea Cables From Mediterranean are broken disrupting internet access and phone service between the Middle East, Europe, and parts of Asia. 14 countries including my country India is also been affected by it.

In the build up to Christmas this will severely affect e Commerce and Call Center activity - this will also affect hosting companies with customers in these regions which will not be able to access their servers/hosting accounts.

The affected cable providers are FLAG, SMW3 and SMW4. Reading My Newspaper I got the following data about how much %tage of internet Access will be affected in following countries:

Maldives - 100%
India - 82%
Qatar - 70%
Saudi Arab - 50%
Egypt - 50%
Pakistan - 50%

I don’t know what am I going to do without internet in the coming days. This failure has effected my ISP and my browsing speed has been reduced by almost 3-4 times. I got this update today in the morning from my ISP about this failure and this is not going to be solved before 25th December.

Now what can this internet failure do? This can make the economy condition worse! and if I’m not mistaken, it will also effect the stock exchange in the next 72 hours since companies/call centers depend on the internet for their over seas business and trade. The stock exchange might see a down fall.

It also means that this Xmas might not be as good as it was last year.

If possible I might be able to wish you all Happy Christmas in the coming days. If possible Taylor Thomson Of VideoBloggingTips might write any Guest Post here which might help you but I won't be able to reply your comments in the coming days..I feel damn sorry for that.
