Which of the following statements is FALSE regarding communication?

In verbal communication, the presence of both the parties at the place of communication is not necessary, as it can also be done if the parties are at different locations. For example, two people who are geographically in different countries can talk on the phone and engage in oral communication, an email can be sent from any part of the world to anyone in a different part of the world. On the other hand, for an effective non-verbal communication, both the parties must be there, at the time of communication.
