The undersea cables and landing site damage should be fixed by the end of the month.

Have a feeling this might not be fixed anytime soon.
Also the ACT customer care literally has no clue what am talking about

Looks like they've done something about it. I've noticed it months ago but didn't bother about it. But soon after I posted about it.... Coincidence?

Looks like there was an issue/maintenance with Google's Chennai POP and the traffic was diverted to Singapore. They have resolved it now.

 

[uberjon]

I think the problem was at ACT's end.
Hop 5: ACT's end.
Hop 6: Google's end.
The host name of google's server also suggests that they are Chennai based.
