Participate in Building the Country

The government through the Telecommunication and Information Accessibility Agency of the Ministry of Communication and Information in collaboration with three Implementing Business Entities namely PT Palapa Ring Barat (West Palapa Ring), PT LEN Telekomunikasi Indonesia (Palapa Ring Central) & PT Palapa Timur Telematika (Palapa Ring East) has completed the construction of a national fiber optic backbone network in all district/city capitals in Indonesia in August 2019.

Technology and Development Process

We use three technologies when laying submarine cables: injector technology, plow technology, and ROV technology. Some of the fiber optic cables used are locally produced with domestic component levels (TKDN), capable of transmitting data at very high speeds.

Together with leading strategic partners, we deliver reliable, high-speed fiber-optic connectivity to drive equitable digitalization across the entire Nusantara.
