SEACOM second cable repair underway

SEACOM’s repair vessel has arrived at the second marine fault on its cable in the Red Sea.

Why is it that Seacom is the only undersea cable with these types of issues?

Are ship crews more incompetent on that side of the world?

Did they use substandard material?

Good point, is it ever not broken ?

Stupid ships' captains using their anchors as brakes.
It works well in seas where the ocean floor is not rocky and not very deep. Yes there is the coral, but said captains don't really give a hoot about marine conservation. The same perfect spot for laying a fibre cable.
