Yangon, Myanmar – November 22, 2025 Global Technology Company (GlobalNet), Myanmar’s leading internet, Next-Generation network, and Digital Infrastructure Provider, successfully delivered dedicated digital infrastructure for the 24th ASEAN Banking Conference and 53rd ASEAN Banker Council Meeting held in Yangon from November 19-21, 2025.
Supporting Regional Banking Integration
GlobalNet’s highly skilled engineering team and corporate affairs officers worked to ensure seamless connectivity for this prestigious regional banking event, which brought together over 100 senior bankers from 11 ASEAN countries, including ASEAN Secretary-General Dr. Kao Kim Hourn. The conference focused on “Optimizing Banking Operations in the Digital Age: Successes and Challenges,” marking the first time Myanmar hosted this significant gathering.
Ensuring Resilient Connectivity
Despite challenges with Myanmar’s primary submarine cable infrastructure, GlobalNet demonstrated its commitment to digital resilience by leveraging redundant alternative submarine cable facilities and cross-border terrestrial internet transmission capabilities. The company’s investment in the AAE-1 (Asia Africa Europe) submarine cable system—a 25,000km next-generation network providing the lowest-latency route between Asia and Europe—enabled reliable, high-quality connectivity for conference participants.
Advancing ASEAN Digital Integration
“GlobalNet is honored to support this milestone event that advances Myanmar’s integration into ASEAN’s digital and financial ecosystem,” said a company spokesperson. “Our continuous investment in infrastructure and dedication to our partners, customers, enterprises, and public service entities demonstrates our commitment to Myanmar’s digital transformation“.
The conference addressed critical developments in ASEAN’s digital payment landscape, including the region’s expansion to 56% digital transactions in 2024 and 26 operational bilateral QR and peer-to-peer fund transfer linkages.
Partnership and Trust
GlobalNet extends its gratitude to the Central Bank of Myanmar and conference organizers for trusting the company to prove the resilience and capabilities of Myanmar’s digital infrastructure sector.
