SingTel Extends IP VPN Services to Vietnam

Singapore Telecommunications (SingTel) together with Vietnam Datacommunications Company (VDC), the data services arm of Vietnam Posts and Telecommunications (VNPT), began offering IP VPN services to corporate customers with operations in Vietnam. SingTel is the first foreign carrier to offer such a service, which allows customers to be connected to VDC's domestic nation-wide IP network. The service provides seamless, MPLS-based IP connections from Singapore and all major cities in the world into, across and out of Vietnam.
