22 JuneOn the 28th day of May 2009 Samoatel (Samoa's government owned Telecommunications Company) launched its new fiberoptic cable which will bring with it a significant improvement to internet speed and telecommunication capability for the country.
The new technology replaces the slower and more expensive satellite technology currently used. Mike Johnstone Chief Executive officer of SamoaTel says "Overseas operators will be able to log on instantaneously, Samoan Websites will be more accessible. There will be an inflow internationally into the country encouraged by the greater speed. Services available online such as airline bookings and internet banking will be improved. If you improve the connectivity of the country you will improve its GDP. "
This technology will greatly assist with the development of our Samoa International Company virtual office product. Should you have any questions regarding the Samoa International Company virtual office product, please do not hesitate to contact us by email at
