Dear Customers
This is to inform that FLAG Telecom has suffered Multiple Fiber Cuts in
their FNAL (FLAG North Asia Loop) near Taiwan due to earthquake on 26 Dec
2006.In order to carry out fiber repair, FLAG has arranged Cableship and
work is in progress.
In the meanwhile FLAG has now doubled the number of their IP backbone
circuits towards London from Hong Kong and are also putting in place
additional capacity towards the US via Taiwan and via bought-in IP Transit
services. This will hopefully improve IP services. However, you may observe
some degradation on traffic via HONG KONG but traffic via LONDON will be
normal as usual.
Hopefully, you will bear with us.
Regards
