Discount for early holiday cards

JAKARTA: PT Pos Indonesia is giving a discount of between 11 percent and 17 percent for those who send their Idul Fitri and Christmas cards between Dec. 1 and Dec. 10.

For example, it will cost you Rp 800 instead of Rp 900 if you send a standard-sized card using the regular mail service, Antara reported.

The company predicts an increase of between 30 percent and 40 percent of mail during the holiday season, according to spokesman Mursalim.

He said on Monday that about 6,500 motorcycles would be at the ready to transport mail to destinations across the city.--JP
