MUMBAI, India, June 5, 2025 /CNW/ -- In a major advancement for network connectivity for businesses across Asia and beyond, Tata Communications, a leading global communications technology player, today announced the integration of a new submarine cable system —TGN-IA2 — constructed by the Asia Direct Cable (ADC) consortium, into its existing network fabric. Built to deliver seamless connectivity, scalable bandwidth solutions, and high-capacity data transfer across multiple routes, TGN-IA2 will enable customers — including enterprises, hyperscalers, and service providers — to leverage availability of diverse and resilient connectivity solutions from a single provider in their Intra-Asia networks. Additionally, TGN-IA2 will seamlessly integrate with Tata Communications existing assets, facilitating connectivity solutions from Asia into key geographies, including the US; Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA); and India.

Finally, customers from financial services, e-commerce, logistics, and any sector that depends on fast, secure data transit between Asia and major global hubs, will experience: Improved latency for faster internet speeds and streaming quality Enhanced reliability and redundancy, ensuring seamless business continuity Greater network diversity with seamless interconnection between TGN-IA2 and the existing submarine cable system TGN-IA (Tata Global Network Intra-Asia) The foundation for future-proof digital services and applications "At Tata Communications, we remain steadfast in our commitment to investing in cutting-edge subsea cable systems to meet our customers' growing demands for scalable, diverse, and high-performance connectivity solutions," said Genius Wong, Executive Vice President – Core and Next-Gen Connectivity Services and Chief Technology Officer, Tata Communications.

New Allianz Partners Travel Index Reveals Hong Kong's Evolving Travel Concerns and Spending Trends
HONG KONG, May 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Allianz Partners, a world leader in insurance and assistance services, is excited to announce the inaugural launch of the Allianz Partners Travel Index 2025, providing valuable insights into the evolving travel landscape. A recent survey conducted with Kantar Consumer Link, which surveyed 500 Hong Kong respondents, revealed key trends and concerns among Hong Kong travellers. Passion for Travel Prevails Despite Budget Constraints As travel spending faces new challenges, 81% of APAC travellers cite financial constraints as their primary reason for not travelling, a sentiment echoed by 78% of Hong Kong respondents. Despite these hurdles, 90% of locals plan to travel this year, underscoring a persistent desire to rest, relax and enjoy cultural experiences. Notably, retail therapy has gained significant traction among Hong Kong travellers, reflecting a preference that surpasses trends in other regions. Heightened Travel Concerns Hong Kong travellers are increasingly prioritising personal safety and risk management, more so than many APAC peers. Traditional worries about illness remain prevalent, but new concerns weigh on travellers' mind. The survey reveals that 53% of travellers are now anxious about personal safety, 52% are concerned about extreme weather, and 53% worry about falling ill. Consequently, the risk of losing travel documents is cited as a higher concern by 43% of respondents compared to the APAC average of 31%. This evolving risk landscape necessitates a proactive approach to travel insurance, with 90% of respondents indicating that purchasing insurance is essential for peace of mind and protection against unforeseen events. The Heavy Impact of Social Media Social media is reshaping how Hong Kong travellers plan and manage risks. The survey reveals that 50% of respondents now rely on social media for travel planning, a figure that surpasses other countries, with YouTube being the most trusted platform for recommendations (77%). However, a disconnect persists, especially in Hong Kong, as only 35% utilise apps for travel alerts or safety advice in contrast to the APAC average of 38%, emphasising the need for improved resources that bridge inspiration with practical preparation. Preference for Bite-Sized & Family Getaways Hong Kong travellers are opting for shorter, more frequent trips, with the average getaway lasting 5-8 days and a budget of approximately US$1,780, slightly higher than that of neighbouring countries. Intra-Asia travel remains the top choice for 50% of respondents, with most travellers planning their trips in less than three months. This trend towards spontaneity in travel underscores the importance of preparation, as 46% of travellers express concerns about flight delays and 40% prepare for potential luggage issues. Family travel also continues to gain momentum, with 51% of respondents travelling with partners or spouses and 29% with family including children, compared to 9% of solo travellers. This also aligns with overall APAC data trends. Comments from Vinay Surana, Managing Director of Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa, Allianz Partners Hong Kong "It is reassuring to see that 90% of Hong Kong travellers recognise the importance of securing travel insurance, prioritising it over non-essential items. Despite financial constraints and concerns, travel remains an essential part of life in Hong Kong. With the peak mid-year holidays approaching, we expect that travel demand will remain high across age groups and will continue throughout the rest of the year. Our customers value efficiency and versatility, and as Allianz Partners launches the Travel Index, we are dedicated to empowering them with the knowledge and tools needed to navigate the evolving risk landscape. By merging local insights with global trends, we aim to redefine travel protection and enhance the overall travel experience." Comments from Greg Plifka, Managing Director, Allianz Partners Hong Kong "Our 2025 Travel Index reveals Hong Kong travellers are taking shorter, more spontaneous trips while demanding greater protection. With 90% now seeing insurance as essential, we recognise this as both a responsibility and an opportunity to provide further integrated services. Allianz Partners will continue to innovate our travel solutions in response to Hong Kong travellers' behaviours, empowering them to confidently travel the world." About the Allianz Travel Index 2025 Allianz Partners commissioned Kantar Consumer Link to conduct an online survey of 500 Hong Kong adults between 10-16 Feb 2025.
