Tonga Telecommunication Corporation has resolved an interference to its system caused by other network operators.
Tonga Broadcasting Commission report said “a local operator was listening to conversations of others while using TCC mobile phones”.
It said “such interferences are not legal according to Communication Act as hacking is part of cyber-crime”.
A spokesperson for TCC said it “is about ‘interference’ – more specifically ‘radio interference’ in the mobile networks”.
The Ministry is resolving this issue with the network operators, the spokesperson said.
Sometimes when a business is growing, it needs a little help.
Right now Kaniva News provides a free, politically independent, bilingual news service for readers around the world that is absolutely unique. We are the largest New Zealand-based Tongan news service, and our stories reach Tongans wherever they are round the world. But as we grow, there are increased demands on Kaniva News for translation into Tongan on our social media accounts and for the costs associated with expansion. We believe it is important for Tongans to have their own voice and for Tongans to preserve their language, customs and heritage. That is something to which we are strongly committed. That’s why we are asking you to consider sponsoring our work and helping to preserve a uniquely Tongan point of view for our readers and listeners.
