Submarine Internet cable problem slows Vietnam’s international connectivity

According to the cable’s management unit, the problem has affected Internet connections on the Intra-Asia (IA) cable system, which links to Singapore and Japan. According to a telecom company representative, domestic communication and service connections are unaffected by the error, and only international connections are disrupted. International connection in Vietnam relies on multiple submarine cable systems, namely the APG, AAG, IA, SMW3, and Asia-Africa-Europe 1 (AAE-1), according to the Vietnam Internet Association.
