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)
