Reaching out to the world, Nepal has successfully connected with the Chinese optic Fiber connection through the Geelong(Keyrong)-Rasuwgadhi border point  connecting the nation to the global telecom service,  ending the sole dependency of the Indian control over the optic fiber in Nepal.
Nepal has successfully conducted the Nepal-China Optical Fiber connection in order to improve the telecommunications service network of Nepal using Wired technology.
State-owned Nepal Telecom (NT) announced Saturday that its optical fiber network has been connected with that of China Telecom Corporation Limited.
Nepal was now  directly linked with Hong Kong Data Center, which is one of the two biggest global date centers in Asia, through the Chinese mainland. The use of the Chinese route to connect with Hong Kong Data Center will help enhancing quality of internet services in Nepal
Following the connection with Chinese optical fiber, Nepal are also able to purchase internet bandwith with Chinese companies. Currently, Nepalese internet service providers have been purchasing bandwith with companies from India and other countries.
Now the real question is with this connection established what would be the faith of the recent decision to increase tax deducted on source (TDS) on purchase of bandwidth Internet.
In the budget for Fiscal Year 2016/17, the government has increased TDS on purchase of bandwidth Internet by 5 percentage points to 10 percent. The Internet Service Provider’s Association of Nepal (ISPAN) has already expressed objection over the government’s recent decision to increase tax deducted on source (TDS) on purchase of bandwidth Internet.
