SINGAPORE--SingTel will be providing Myanmar a gateway for Internet access via its SingTel Internet Exchange (STIX).
SingTel will be providing its service to an email service provider in Myanmar--Eagle IT--which has been appointed by the Myanmar authorities to set up an educational intranet and Internet service.
It is the first foreign company to work with a commercial partner in Myanmar to set up an Internet link in the country.
Internet traffic to Myanmar via STIX will be delivered using SingTel's satellite ST-1.
STIX was set up in 1995 to promote Singapore as a top Internet hub in the Asia Pacific. Today more than 40 ISPs in 20 countries in the Asia Pacific are accessing the Internet using Singapore as a gateway. These includes ISPs in Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Nepal, India, Brunei, Malaysia, Cambodia, the Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia, Hong Kong, Japan, Taiwan, South Korea and Australia.
Myanmar is the latest country in the Asia Pacific region to establish Internet connectivity via STIX.
