They said they will utilise different methods to open up more data flows on land at a meeting with telecom firms held by the Ministry of Information and Communications on the same day to solve the submarine cable incident and ensure Vietnam’s international Internet connections.
Four submarine cables Asia-America Gateway (AAG), Asia Africa Europe 1 (AAE-1), Asia Pacific Gateway (APG) and Intra Asia (IA) that connect the country to the world are experiencing issues, seriously affecting performance and reliability.

At the meeting, Minister of Information and Communications Nguyen Manh Hung asked the firms to apply technical measures to ensure connections and the quality of the service.
