This acquisition consolidates SEAX’s presence across Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, and now Thailand, integrating ITEL’s nationwide fiber network infrastructure and telecommunications licences with SEAX’s regional subsea and terrestrial networks.

This partnership enables us to deliver robust, low-latency connectivity solutions that meet the evolving needs of enterprises and digital ecosystems seeking seamless cross-border service."
