The SJC System, which links Brunei, mainland China, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore and the Philippines, became operational in mid-2013.
The upgrade of the 8,986km system increases capacity to meet the continued rising demand for businesses and communications in the Asia-Pacific region and will be completed by the end of June 2016.
