The undersea international cable AAG (Asia Pacific Gateway) that
connects Vietnam to the internet with other countries has been fixed one
day earlier than scheduled, according to the AAG operating unit.
The cable operator said after welding was completed at 7:45 am on
October 2, international channels have been completely restored.
On September 15, the AAG cable was broken at a site 64km from Hong
Kong. This affected internet services in Vietnam, especially connections
with other countries.
On September 30, the
second break was reported 68km from the Hong Kong mainland station. The
AAG is a 20,000km long submarine communications cable system connecting
Southeast Asia with the US mainland, across the Pacific Ocean via Guam
and Hawaii.-VNA
