BRIN,\nhe said, is committed to continuing the development of other satellite\ninnovations, including developing a national telecommunications\nsatellite.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMastery of telecommunications satellite technology is a strategic\ninvestment that strengthens digital sovereignty, enhances economic\ncompetitiveness and reduces dependence on foreign technology and service\nproviders,\u201d Satria concluded.<\/p>",
