Phone never off the hook

Dear Editor, Can the Director for the Cook Islands Meteorological Service, Arona Ngari, please explain why the phone at the Met Office (20 603) was very deliberately taken off the hook before the end of the working day yesterday and well into the evening, thus preventing anyone from ringing the office to seek up-to-date information on tropical Cyclone Mike?
