Coverage reveals the cable is part of Washington's strategy to control internet infrastructure underpinning AI development and prevent China from accessing Southeast Asia's digital networks. The project is estimated to cost over $14 billion and addresses infrastructure gaps left by the aging Asia-America Gateway cable, which has experienced frequent outages.
