STOCKHOLM (Reuter): Swedish telecoms giant LM Ericsson AB said

a GSM network.

"(It) is a turnkey project which will result in a GSM network
with the latest technology and services for good coverage and
accessibility in the entire system," Ericsson said in a

Excelcomindo is a joint venture between Indonesia's

The network will be in operation by end-1996 and completed in
1997, it added.
