JAKARTA (JP): The East Jakarta branch of the state-owned

Jakarta, from analog technology to digital technology.

The East Jakarta Telkom branch head, Rizal Saat, said
yesterday the change over would start at 12 p.m tomorrow and
would not disrupt services.

"But I hope that customers who have telephone numbers starting
with 828 and 829 will reduce their telephone activities. If there
are any disruptions, please call 117 or visit the Tebet office on
Jl. Casablanca, in South Jakarta," Rizal said.

He also announced that some telephone installments have been
