Quick Summary:

Keppel is considering a cable from Singapore to Japan with links to other countries, said a source.

Singapore is a major hub for data centres and undersea cables, but the small island-state has nearly saturated its data usage capacity.

Vietnam, with a population of nearly 100 million, is a large market for online platforms, but is currently connected to the global internet infrastructure through only five undersea branches to international cables.
