The Lebanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Emigrants has launched a new service, a new smartphone application called SOS MOFA.
This app is exclusively dedicated to the Lebanese emigrants for them to communicate with the ministry regarding any emergency.
The application is downloaded on the smartphone through the Apple store, then a private account for each Lebanese is created.
Using this account, he will be able to benefit from the following services:
First: Subscribe to check the news of Lebanon and the ministry through the Ministry of Foreign affairs’ website
Second: Subscribe to check the activities and news of the Lebanese delegation in his country of presence and residence
Third: Identify the location of the nearest Lebanese delegation and check its full address through the Geo-location service
Finally, The SOS service allows the Lebanese to notify the relevant delegation of any incident or urgent matter through the Emergency Center, established specifically for that purpose.
The Lebanese uses the service to send location information, insert his phone number and upload pictures and videos in relation to the reported incident.
He can also explain the reported incident in order for the concerned parties and Ministry to undertake the necessary measures.
