Thanks for those. It seems to me that there are not that many transoceanic fiber links to Australia. I have seen a map of planned links which looks rather ambitious (but not many more to Australia.) I would assume Telstra is akin to PacBell and the Taiwanese National telecommunications service in not looking forward to competition, but if anyone wants to lay ocean fiber, I'll bet they stand a chance to clean up.
