New Internet provider set up<\/p>\n
JAKARTA (JP): A new Internet provider, PT Cyberindo Aditama,
\nannounced yesterday that the company is launching its information
\nsuperhighway service, called CBNnet, on Thursday.<\/p>\n
\"The Internet will become a mature industry in the future and
\nmore people will use the service,\" Cyberindo's president, Dani
\nSumarsono, told reporters.<\/p>\n
He said that Internet business in Indonesia will grow steadily
\nand competition will be based on services, tariff rates and
\naccessibility.<\/p>\n
\"The government has set guidelines for tariff arrangements so
\nthat each Internet provider only has a narrow range to compete in
\ntariffs,\" he said. \"The competitive advantages for the operators
\ninclude services and easiness for the users to get access.\"<\/p>\n
In addition to Cyberindo, there are currently four other
\nInternet providers: PT Indo Internet (Indonet), PT Aplikanusa
\nLintasartha (Idola), PT Rajasa Media (Radnet) and PT Sistelindo
\nMitralintas (Inet).<\/p>\n
According to Dani, there are about 15,000 Internet users in
\nIndonesia and Cyber expects to attract some 2,000 new individual
\nusers within the first year of operation.<\/p>\n
Cyberindo, which is partly owned by the Foundation of
\nTechnical Education in Indonesia, has set their registration and
\ninstallation fee at Rp 50,000 (US$21.80) for individual users and
\nRp 1 million for corporations. Individual users will have to pay
\nadditional charges between Rp 2,000 and Rp 3,000.<\/p>\n
The company charges monthly fees between Rp 15,000 and Rp
\n215,000 for individual users and between Rp 800,000 and Rp 1.6
\nmillion for corporations. (icn)<\/p>",
