SINGAPORE - The Singapore telecom regulator has launched a key project to connect businesses here with western China, after mainboard-listed telcos Singtel and StarHub separately announced that they would be developing fresh data links with their Chinese counterparts.

While the data channel is now available only for companies in the seven industrial parks in Chongqing, the plan is to enable data flows from all of western China to Singapore in the long run, routed through Chongqing, the IMDA added. Singtel and StarHub had already announced their separate agreements with the same three Chinese operators: China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom. They will deliver high-speed connectivity through the data channel to industrial parks such as Liangjiang Digital Economy Industrial Park, China Zhigu Science Park, Xiyong Microelectronics Industrial Park, and Blockchain Innovation Industrial Base.

These companies include mobile advertising firm Mobvista, market study service provider Listen Data Technology, and data centre operator GDS, which recently tied up with Singapore sovereign wealth fund GIC to build more data centres across China.
