JAKARTA - The Ministry of Communication and Digital stated that it continues to prioritize the restoration of telecommunications networks in disaster-affected areas, especially in Aceh.

According to the Minister of Communication and Digital, Meutya Hafid, this step is crucial to ensure that the public remains connected and can access emergency information, especially in post-disaster situations.

Currently, the process of restoring the telecommunications operator's connectivity infrastructure in Aceh has shown significant progress.

Meutya said that currently, the recovery of operator connectivity infrastructure in Aceh has exceeded 95 percent. Of the total 3,208 BTS, only seven BTS are still in the repair process.

"Connectivity in Aceh is already 95 percent for all operators and operates with a fairly high uptime. We hope this will help residents stay connected," Meutya said in an official statement on Monday, December 5.

Meutya also stated that recovery efforts were carried out intensively by involving all telecommunications operators, including Telkomsel, Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison, and also XLSMART.

The Minister of Communication and Information also appreciated the progress of telecommunications recovery in Aceh Tamiang, whose impact was directly felt by the residents.

According to him, for the people of Aceh Tamiang, the recovery of the BTS is not only about the availability of communication facilities, but also a sign of the early recovery of life after the disaster.
