This Is Telkom's Anticipation Step To Face Traffic Surge During Eid 2024
JAKARTA - PT Telekomunikasi Indonesia Tbk (Telkom) predicts an increase in traffic of around 10 percent at the moment of Lebaran 2024. Telkom VP Corporate Communication (TLKM) Andri Herawan Sasoko said his party had prepared a number of anticipatory steps to deal with the increase in traffic.
"If we traffic, every Eid al-Fitr we will definitely experience a spike in traffic, an average of 6-10 percent of the spike. The anticipatory steps are prepared by increasing capacity," said Andri in a presentation to media crews in the Kebayoran Baru area, South Jakarta, Monday, March 25.
Andri said the traffic spike is projected to increase by 5.15 percent when compared to Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr (RAFI) 2023. Thus, the capacity is increased to 28 Tbps.
"Telkom has anticipated that, because it has increased 5.15% compared to RAFI in previous years, so we always anticipate a spike in traffic," said Andri.
