Update
Please be advise that the Sea-Me-We-3 failed due to a cable cut 1125km away from Singapore Tuas Cable Station, affecting our primary core network path between Perth and Singapore.

A ship is being arranged by our upstream provider to dispatch and fix the damage. No ETR has been provided by the cable provider but historically these repairs take over a month to repair due to complexity of repairing submarine cable faults.

Customers can expect to see increased latency to Asian destinations until this link is restored.
