Nokia wins order from Telkomsel

HELSINKI: Nokia, the world's largest mobile-phone maker, has won
an order to expand the wireless network of PT Telekomunikasi
Selular, Indonesia's biggest mobile-phone company.

Nokia, based in Espoo, Finland, has already started delivering
equipment and services for the operator. Nokia gave no value for
the order in an e-mailed release sent today.

The operator, known as Telkomsel, is expanding the capacity of
its network as demand increases. It has more than 17.5 million
wireless subscribers and the number is increasing "rapidly,"
Nokia said.

The operator is a unit of PT Telekomunikasi Indonesia, the
