{UAH} Inter Swicth System
So when you block off facebook and twitter you have also closed off short messaging capabilities (SMS) on mobile phones. Mobile phones too are working too!

Ill advised. Think of these Makerere ICT youth with their applications on given websited they are selling for dollar and these websites are located in Uganda! Wasted investment.
It is terrible as government blocks social media they also block inter switch system which basically use telecom network to transact their business.
For good or worse this act is completely going to change not only the banking system but the airline and tourism sectors that have lost lot of revenue. There must be tourists stranded in their hotels without money or passengers who have to incur cost because of the government acts.
Barclays was not working the only bank connected to Eurepe and the USA.
Since yesterday was a working day around the world certainly there was business transaction going on through automated systems. All this business is lost.
I am yet to find out if URA system was on or off . Goods had to move accross boarders despite that Uganda was in elections.
Moreover - those companies and corporate bodies that have their business transaction based on the internet will have to think twice investing in or having their business office located in Uganda.
Politics is destroying the least progress that has been made!
