Description	Japan is preparing to subsidize telecom giant NEC's purchase of its own ocean-going undersea cable-laying ships, covering up to half of the roughly $300 million price tag per vessel. This strategic move aims to secure Japan's internet infrastructure by ensuring sovereign capability to lay and repair undersea cables, which carry 99% of the country's communications. NEC currently owns no cable ships and relies on leasing foreign vessels. The first Japanese-owned transoceanic cable ship is tentatively expected by 2027, pending final approvals.
