If you’re facing flood in your area, you are advised to save as much as bandwidth to reduce the load on the communications systems. As recommended by CFM previously, users are urged to use SMS to communicate and to limit online activity to avoid congestion. It is also best to keep all of your power banks fully charge and you can utilise your phone’s power-saving mode to reduce consumption. You can learn tips on staying connecting during floods here.
