Global emergency numbers 112

People might be worried when they take a trip, especially when travel abroad. You usually do not know any people in the destination; you do not know the street, and facilities. Most of all, you may not speak the local language well. What if you run into any danger, who can you turn to for help?

Luckily, we can make an emergency call. We have a cell phone, that’s not a problem. The only question is what the number is? In fact, every country has an emergency number and it differs from country to country. For example, people in the US and Canada call 911 if they are in any danger. But the number in Japan, China and India is 110. So how do you know the number in any country?

Well you do not have to memorize the number when you travel. You may not know that there is a worldwide emergency number. And the number is 112. As a matter of fact, lots of people do not know it.

112 is a special number. Generally you could not dial any number from your keyboard when your screen is locked, but if you try this number, the magic will play. Well that’s not all. You can dial this number even if you do not have a SIM card. Your phone will automatically search any network.

If you have a keyboard phone, try this trick. Even if you have a touchscreen phone, you can dial any emergency number with the screen locked.

So you do not have to worry next time when you travel. If your friends are going abroad, forward this to him / her, they must be happy!!
