India internet outage due to undersea cable damage

Recently, the undersea cable damage causes the internet service outage in India and Middle east country. This is a big news, because people cannot surf net and cannot work.

In a way, this highlight that, in the inter connected world now. Internet has became a neccesity for work to be done. The root cause is not known yet, as what I have read up to today.

This bring up a couple interesting issues

• In the modern world, internet has became a requirement for business to carry on. How does the government plan their connection to prevent future failure?
• Since undersea repair is difficult, what has been done to prevent the failure in the first place?
  
• India outsourcing industry actually depends on the communication network to deliver output to America and Europe. In recent years, because of the language accent problem, some companies actually move back the call centre and support centre to own country or another country. Would this outage trigger more company moving their operation to spread out the risk?
