South Lampung (ANTARA) - Deputy Minister of Communication and Digital (Wamenkomdigi) Angga Raka Prabowo directly checked the mobile telecommunications signal network while monitoring signal traffic and radio frequencies during the peak return flow on Friday night at Bakauheni Port, Lampung Province.
Angga Raka, who arrived at Bakauheni Port with Minister of Transportation (Menhub) Dudy Purwagandhi at 18:30 WIB, walked together from the ASDP Bakauheni Port Office towards the motorcycle queue line to the pier.
At the side of the route, the Deputy Minister greeted several motorbike owners heading to Merak Port, Tangerang, Banten. On the same occasion, Angga Raka also directly asked about the signal network conditions in the port area.
“Today is the return flow from the Eid holidays, expected to peak today and tomorrow. We asked about the signal network conditions during the holiday period, and alhamdulillah, the public’s response is that the signal network feels safe and good,” said Angga Raka, conveying the content of his conversations with several motorbike owners when met in front of the Main Eid al-Fitr Post (Rafi) of Komdigi at Bakauheni Port on Friday night.
Angga Raka continued that specifically at Bakauheni Port, the average speed of the mobile telecommunications signal network reaches 30 Mbps, with a success rate of 96 percent.
