JAKARTA - The Ministry of Communication and Information (Kominfo) has stated that it will prepare an internet mobile in Golo Mori, East Nusa Tenggara (NTT), which is the venue for the Summit of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).

"Later there will be an internet mobile that will be provided by Telkomsel," said the Director General of Information and Public Communication (IKP) at the ministry, Usman Kansong, in a statement in Jakarta, Sunday.

Usman said internet mobile was prepared to expand the reach and improve the quality of internet networks in the area.

Currently, Telkom Group is increasing the capacity and quality of Base Transceiver Stations (BTS) in Golo Mori and Labuan Bajo.

"The upgrade is expected to be completed in the second week of April," said Usman.

He admitted that he had no difficulties in preparing a telecommunications network in Labuan Bajo, which was once a G-20 venue and already has a 4G and 5G telecommunications network.

"The most important thing is protection. Don't let there be damage, intentionally damaged or accidentally damaged," said Usman.

According to this ministry website, 3,773.73 kilometers of fiber optics network (Fiber Optic/FO) is available in Labuan Bajo. Then, 2,055 Optical Distribution Points (ODP) and 1,635 4G BTS and 3 5G BTS.

The 4G network has reached 94 percent of residential areas, and 78 percent of the Labuan Bajo area.

Usman also said that his ministry had prepared a contingency plan and a mitigation plan if something happened during the ASEAN Summit later.

The mitigation has been prepared. And Labuan Bajo is a place that, in terms of disaster, is relatively safer than other regions," explained Usman.

Usman emphasized that Labuan Bajo is one of the areas where the National Data Center (PDN) will be built.

The Ministry of Communication and Informatics has designed four PDN locations in the Deltamas Industrial Estate (Jabodetabek), Nongsa Digital Park (Batam), the new National Capital (IKN) in East Kalimantan, and Labuan Bajo in East Nusa Tenggara.

"In 2023, Indonesia will hold the chairmanship of ASEAN with the theme ASEAN Matters: Epicentrum of Growth."

The 2023 ASEAN Summit will be held twice, in May in Labuan Bajo and September in Jakarta.

Indonesia raised priority issues in the chairmanship of ASEAN 2023, namely recovery and rebuilding, the digital economy, and sustainable development.
