JAKARTA - The process of restoring the telecommunications network BTS after the disaster in Aceh Tamiang is underway. Currently, residents can contact their families and return to their activities, and the distribution of assistance is smoother.
Communication and Digital Minister Meutya Hafid emphasized that the process of restoring public services and telecommunications networks in the affected areas is targeted to be completed by the end of 2025.
"Therefore, today we are together with partners to ensure that our respective tasks can run optimally. Recover before the year changes," Meutya said in an official broadcast.
The Minister of Communication and Information together with representatives of mobile operators from Telkomsel, Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison, and XLSMART also directly reviewed the affected BTS towers to ensure that recovery continued in the field.
Meutya also appreciated the progress of telecommunications recovery in Aceh Tamiang, whose impact was directly felt by residents.
"We saw that residents could also video call, could enjoy reading news because information is also important in disaster recovery. So hopefully the cellular network can continue to be stable until next year and beyond," said Meutya.
For the people of Aceh Tamiang, the recovery of the BTS is not only about the availability of communication facilities, but also as an early sign of recovery after the disaster.
