communications service provided at low cost. This service serves
as a backup communications line in case terrestrial networks
are disrupted due to emergencies such as natural disasters.
The service also ensures links between remote locations such
as mountainous regions and islands. The SAO service harnesses
key advantages of satellite communications - its disaster-readiness
and wide-area coverage.
