4,145 telephones for Tangerang

Starting on July 5, 1994, the state-owned telecommunications company, PT Telkom, will provide 4,145 new telephone lines for Tangerang, thanks to the completion of the first of three automated telephone stations (STO) in the area.

The construction of the STO is being jointly carried out by PT Telkom and Konsorsium Telekomindo Intertel (KTI), which, as an investor, has supplied the funds for the establishment of 125,000 telephone lines in Jakarta and Tangerang.

Apart from the three STOs in Tangerang, KTI has also assisted the construction of eight STOs at Kemang, Pasar Minggu, Kebayoran, Tanah Kusir in South Jakarta, Cempaka Putih in West Jakarta, Pluit and Tanjung Priok in North Jakarta.(mds)
