Governor Joseph receives Chief Executive Officer of FSM Telecommunications Cable Corporation (FSMTCC)

Kolonia, Pohnpei: January 17, 2024 – Mr. Gordon Segal, CEO of FSM Telecommunications Cable Corporation (FSMTCC), and Mrs. Sihna Lawrence, consultant to FSMTCC, recently visited Governor Joseph to discuss crucial projects aimed at enhancing communications infrastructure in the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM). The meeting took place as part of FSMTCC’s outreach to seek support and assistance from the new administration for their initiatives.

During the visit, Mr. Segal presented Governor Joseph with comprehensive reports on the two significant projects spearheaded by FSMTCC. As an implementation agency, FSMTCC is committed to improving communication capabilities across FSM through strategic initiatives. It was emphasized that FSMTCC, as a submarine cable company, focuses on providing essential infrastructure for communication and does not offer direct services.

Governor Joseph welcomed Mr. Segal and Mrs. Lawrence, expressing appreciation for FSMTCC’s dedication to advancing communication networks within FSM. He pledged to thoroughly examine the information presented by Mr. Segal to determine the specific roles and responsibilities expected from Pohnpei in supporting these initiatives.

As these projects move forward, the partnership between FSMTCC and the government of Pohnpei holds the promise of delivering improved communication infrastructure and connectivity, positively impacting the citizens of the State of Pohnpei and the rest of the Federated States of Micronesia.
