JAYAPURA - PT Telkom Indonesia in the Papua region said the merger or integration of Indihome and Telkomsel was part of an action to expand business to improve services to the community, including on Earth Cenderawasih.

General Manager (GM) of Telkom Telecommunication Area (Witel) Papua Agus Widiarsana in Jayapura, Saturday, 7 JULI said that the transfer process is currently ongoing and has no problems.

"As of July 1, we have officially announced a transition, which is carried out to provide wider broadband coverage, easier and more equitable digital access," he said.

According to Agus, Indihome services are running as usual so that people don't have to worry about this transition where customers will not experience changing equipment or changing usage rates.

"This whole integration or merger process will not be charged any fees for that, people are expected not to believe in the presence of individuals who ask for fees," he said.

He explained that the transfer of IndiHome to Telkomsel was a form of TelkomGroup's commitment to continue to provide the best service and provide sustainable innovation for all customers.

"We project that this commercial synergy will increase over time. In line with the synergy programs between Telkomsel and IndiHome being carried out," he said again.

He added that an in-depth study related to Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC) has been carried out and even 23 of the world's 25 largest telco operators have implemented the FMC. This shows that the FMC initiative is the most appropriate step and has been proven results. Telkom's strategic steps are also supported by the Ministry of SOEs.

"In the future, TelkomGroup will continue the plan to transform other Five Bold Moves, such as InfraCo, Data Center Co, B2B Digital IT Service Co and DigiCos," he said again.
