The Samoa Submarine Cable Company has started the construction of the Tui-Samoa Submarine cable landing station at Vaivase-Tai.
The Tui-Samoa cable is an eight-terabit system that will connect Samoa, the territories of Wallis & Futuna, and Vanua Levu to Suva on the Fiji mainland.
The Samoa Submarine Cable Company has also announced its partnership with Southern Cross Networks.
The Samoa government, through the Samoa Submarine Cable Company (SSCC), has started commercial negotiations to host a spur of the 12,500km Trans-Pacific Southern Cross Next connecting Australia and New Zealand (and also Samoa) to Los Angeles in California, US.
“Today is the commencement of commercial negotiations between S.S.C.C. and Southern Cross Cables in relation to Southern Cross’s Project Next”, said Deputy Prime Minister Fiame Mataafa Naomi.
“This is an important step towards positioning Samoa as a submarine cable hub in the region and will further enhance the prospects of winning the rights to also land the Pacific Connectivity Project submarine cable from Tahiti at this cable landing station.
The Government of Samoa and SSCC look forward to working with Southern Cross Cables to be your reliable and trusted partner and to fulfill our ambition to be the cable hub for central Polynesia”, she added.
