Unless you are in a very remote or backward part of a country, e-mail and telephone communications are the two most reliable, fastest and most convenient means of communications in today’s world.
Besides using your cellular phone to access the internet, you can also utilize internet-connected computers that are available in universities, internet cafes, prominent libraries, and probably even in some bookstores or hostels.
The below table shows a list of phone codes for all the countries of the world. The Country Code is the code that you dial to call to a country, while the International Exit Code is the code that you dial to call out of a country.
If you are calling using a cellular phone, the process is simpler in the sense that you can key in the ‘+’ sign in lieu of the International Exit Code. With landline phones, however, there is no shortcut; you must key in the appropriate International Exit Codes in order to make international calls.
For example, if you are in Australia and you want to make a phone call to Singapore using a landline phone, you will need to dial 001165 followed by the phone number of the person or place. In this case, 0011 is the International Exit Code for calling out of Australia, and 65 is the Country Code of Singapore.
On the other hand, if you are calling from Australia to Singapore using a cellular phone instead of a landline phone, you can either dial 001165 followed by the phone number, or +65 followed by the phone number; both methods will work.
