NSTnation: MCMC said it was informed by TM that one of its APCN2 submarine cable segments, which connects Chongming, China and Lantau, Hong Kong (segment 3) is damaged.

The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission today said that TM has given its assurance that all necessary steps are being taken to reduce the impact of service interruption to users.

“While the consortium maintaining the APCN2 identifies the exact location of the damage for restorative work, TM has taken swift action of dispersing affected traffic flow through their other submarine cables in order to reduce the impact on users. The APCN2 submarine cable, which connects Malaysia to Singapore, Hong Kong and the United States, is one of 14 submarine cable systems worldwide jointly owned by TM.

“Most of them provide cache servers at local internet service providers' networks. This means that their content is accessible locally by internet users without any interruption.”
