Bit of a geeky one, but nevertheless an issue I wanted to document — if you’re a Korean sat in the Philippines, you can now, thanks to Smart Communications innovative new system, text a message using Korean characters — that are reliably transcoded on the international switch through to Korea.
Previously, Korean messages were mangled by the international gateway. More geekiness at the link below.

KOREANS in the Philippines can now text in Korean to loved ones in their home country and vice versa.
This, as Smart Communications Inc. develops a service that ensures that all text messages passing through its network, composed in Korean characters, are accurately sent and received by Koreans in the Philippines and in Korea.
