JAKARTA (The Jakarta Post/Asia News Network): State-owned telecommunications firm Telkomsel and technology company GoTo Group have formed a joint venture to expand their gaming business in the South-East Asian market.
With Indonesia’s government encouraging operators to quicken the pace of migrating their customers from 3G to 4G, market leader Telkomsel has confirmed plans to implement a full LTE upgrade this year on a “sustainable basis”.
Already the biggest mobile connectivity player in the Indonesian market, Telkomsel has announced an ambitious plan to restructure and, it seems, enhance its various offerings.
Qatar’s telecoms company Ooredoo and Hong Kong’s CK Hutchison Holdings Ltd has completed the $6 billion merger of their Indonesian telecom businesses after securing all shareholder and regulatory approvals.
