JAKARTA – PT Pos Indonesia (Persero) can play a very important role in the distribution of national e-commerce. SOE Minister Erick Thohir also revealed that the assets of PT Pos which are spread in very strategic locations can be used as distribution centers for e-commerce.

"I think Pos Indonesia's assets, which are extraordinary in location, can also be used as distribution centers for e-commerce," said Erick Thohir in an online discussion in Jakarta, Saturday.

According to him, the location points for Pos Indonesia's assets are extraordinary and have the advantage of being a distribution center with the fastest and closest point.

"The location points for Pos Indonesia's assets are extraordinary, nothing is faster to the nearest point than the closest point from Pos Indonesia," said Erick Thohir.

Erick Thohir also hopes that Pos Indonesia's assets, which are located at strategic points, can become a distribution center for all parts of Indonesia.

As quoted from the official page posindonesia.co.id, Pos Indonesia has now been able to show its creativity in the development of the Indonesian postal sector by utilizing its network infrastructure.

The network has around 24 thousand service points covering 100 percent of cities/districts, almost 100 percent of sub-districts and 42 percent of kelurahan/villages, and 940 remote transmigration locations throughout Indonesia.

Along with the development of information, communication and technology, the Pos Indonesia network already has more than 3,800 online post offices, and is equipped with electronic mobile posts in several big cities.

All points are chains that are connected to each other in a solid and integrated manner. The Postal Code system was created to facilitate the processing of postal items where every inch of area in Indonesia can be identified accurately.
