If we look at the route maps published by nec.co.jp and matrixnetworks.sg, it seems that Jakabare and
MCS share almost similar route path. I did a rough image matching on both pics; the result can be seen below. Except that Jakabare branches to Pontianak around 70 km (?) from Bangka, they seem just like a twin.
What is actually Jakabare ? Local readers might refer to
the comment given by Meneer Tutut (REACH ?). For non-indonesian speakers, you might try google :-) or just look at a short summary below.
- Jakabare is a new Indosat's submarine cable system (currently under construction) connecting JAwa, KAlimantan, BAtam and singapoRE. See the red path on the picture above. Note that as MCS, Jakabare also branchs to Batam before terminates in Changi Singapore.
