Wonder where the bandwidth went?
It is no surprise to anyone in Vietnam today that the internet bandwidth is much lower than it was 2 years ago. First, APEC was thought to be the culprit. When the conference ended, we all thought our bandwidth would return. Nope. Then the earthquake in Taiwan caused a huge decrease in bandwidth. Even to this day, the post-APEC bandwidth has never returned to us. Now, thieves are stealing fiber-optic cable lines off the shore of Vietnam. Notice when you read the article, no one seems to ask WHERE the thieves got the information about the location of the fiber-optic cables along the coast of Vietnam...
