The National Disaster Warning Centre in Thailand has issued a formal apology following a technical error during its scheduled weekly system check on September 9. Typically, the agency conducts a routine test every Wednesday at 8:00 am, which involves transmitting an M99 signal accompanied by the national anthem to verify the functionality of warning towers and satellite receivers. However, during this morning's procedure, the center inadvertently broadcast an M10 signal prior to the anthem. This specific code is intended to notify the public that a hazardous event has concluded and that it is safe to return to affected areas. The center acknowledged the mistake, which occurred while testing equipment connectivity, and confirmed that the subsequent national anthem signal was transmitted as part of the standard testing protocol.
