East Micronesia Cable lands in Kosrae; SubTel Forum reports the landing in early September.

What happened

The 2,250 km cable links Tarawa, Nauru and Kosrae to the HANTRU-1 landing in Pohnpei, funded by grants from Australia, Japan and the US worth about AUD 135 million. Service was expected from November 2025, and the government said it would connect all four states for the first time.
