Hello Everyone,

 

In an effort to provide dynamic updated information in an efficient and prompt manner, we have added a new way to connect. Now we can update you much faster with up to the minute information with a News Update banner at www.mlasolutions.com .


For example, in the case of service interruption or you are having a problem and you are not sure why. If it is a Mandarin outage we will let you know that information ASAP on the News Update banner.


In the past we have sent out emails which was not as efficient as we wanted for time sensitive communication.
