I have created a new VM in GCE in zone asia-northeast1-a. I need to install a g++ compiler.

When I run apt-get I get the following error message:

$ sudo apt-get install g++ 
Reading package lists... Done

The following additional packages will be installed:
  binutils cpp cpp-6 g++-6 gcc gcc-6 libasan3 libatomic1 libc-dev-bin libc6-dev libcc1-0 libcilkrts5 libgcc-6-dev
  libgomp1 libisl15 libitm1 liblsan0 libmpc3 libmpx2 libquadmath0 libstdc++-6-dev libtsan0 libubsan0

Even with the --fix-missing flag I get the same error message.

How can I resolve this?

Your apt database on the machine is out-of-date, and does not reflect the current state of the apt repo it's pointing at. You need to run apt-get update before installing the package.
