Google to Build Subsea Cables in PNG Under Australia Defence Treaty

Google is going to build three big underwater internet cables in Papua New Guinea.

This project is paid for by Australia as part of a defense agreement called the Pukpuk Treaty.

The cables will connect different parts of Papua New Guinea and make the internet there more reliable.

Australia and the U.S. are helping because Papua New Guinea is an important place near Australia.

This project will make it easier for big companies to invest in Papua New Guinea and will also help with defense and communication systems.

Google is also building a data hub on Christmas Island, which is another important location for defense.
