Internet users in Malaysia may have trouble surfing websites hosted in the United States and Taiwan for the next couple of weeks due to damage to a submarine cable system.
Internet service provider TM said there would be slow connectivity after the Asia-Pacific Cable Network 2 (APCN2) submarine cable system was damaged by unknown causes.
The ISP has posted an alert on its website (www.tm.com.my) informing users of this, a company spokesman said.
The damage was first discovered in July. Internet connectivity was supposed to return to normal by Aug 16.
However, TM discovered two more faults which occurred on Aug 6 and Aug 12.
The last damage was detected near Taiwan but the cause has still not been ascertained.
