JAKARTA Towards the turn of the year, Nokia revealed predictions of trends that the telecommunications industry might face in the next few years. This trend is closely related to digital infrastructure.

Ming Kin Ngiam, Head of SEA South Network Infrastructure Sales Nokia, said that the Indonesian government is focusing on preparing digital talents according to industrial needs. There are various training and certification programs provided to support this preparation.

To accelerate digital transformation, which includes increasing digital literacy, Ming argues that Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) will be urgently needed, especially in areas that do not have access to optical fiber networks.

In addition, the demand for computing is expected to increase in the next few years. In line with this increase, the Asia Pacific (APAC) data center is expected to experience a combined growth of almost 20 percent until 2028.

This higher annual growth rate will be accompanied by investments that exceed US$564 billion (Rp9,151 quadrillion). APAC is also expected to account for more global data center capacity over the next few years.

"This rapid expansion projects that APAC will account for about 30 percent of the global data center capacity, with regional capacity expected to more than double" from 10,500 MW to 24,800 MW," Ming told VOI.

Whatever trend the telecommunications industry will face next year, Ming revealed that they will continue to support government initiatives, especially in launching digital transformation missions in various areas that have not been reached.

"We at Nokia remain committed to supporting the Indonesian government in the country's initiative and will continue to work together in implementing the necessary steps to form Indonesia's digital future," said Ming.

Ming added that Nokia wants to become an industry leader on every trend that arises in the telecommunications industry. To achieve this, Nokia will take advantage of the company's portfolio consisting of various advanced technologies and leading solutions.

"Our extensive portfolio consists of advanced technology and important mission solutions to support local companies and businesses in Indonesia," said Ming. "(we have a solution) to future business networks ... empowering organizations to protect their data and sensitive communications in the world."
