Bogor's Telkom new office

BOGOR, West Jakarta (JP): State telecommunication company PT
Telkom officially started the construction of its two offices
worth Rp 40 billion (US$14.8 million) on Jl. Padjajaran here
yesterday.

The five-story maintenance center and eight-story
administration office are designed to further improve the
company's public service quality, said Telkom President Asman
Akhir Nasution at the ground-breaking ceremony.

"The completion of these two projects is also meant to help
produce more desirable sound quality and a higher call--answer
ratio," said Nasution.

The maintenance center, occupying 4,129 hectares, is expected
to be completed next June. The administration office located on a
5,126-hectare land will be finished in December next year.

The projects are jointly constructed by PT Encona engineering
Inc., PT Ciriajasa and PT Adhi Karya.

Bogor Mayor Eddy Gunardi ceremonially dug the first spade into
the building site.

In his speech, Eddy urged the contractors not to damage nearby
streets, drains and other public facilities being used during the
construction period. (24/bsr)
