Phone application deadline extended

The Jakarta Office of the State-owned Telecommunications Company (PT Telkom Witel IV) has extended the deadline for registering new telephone applicants to June 15.

According to office manager Djaman Sinaga, the extension is to accommodate the favorable public response to the Telkom plan to install new telephone lines in the Witel IV region which includes Jakarta, Tangerang, Bekasi and Cibinong area.

"Given the sufficient time left, we can collect accurate data and encompass a larger area," he said.

Djaman called on those who are in need of telephone lines but have not registered to do so immediately.

He pointed out though, that registration is just help the company make its plans on future telephone installation and asked the applicants to be patient since the realization of the project will depend on the funds available. (mds)
