Network rollout was ahead of timeline, fiberization target was met, and core capability and reliability were successfully improved. Optimistic that we can turn challenges into opportunities, the Company saw 2020 as a momentum to deliver the excellence of its networks.
PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS
• Network expansion of BTS towers to more than 144 thousand towers. As many as 37% are 4G, covering customers in 458 cities across nearly all Indonesian provinces.
• Meeting 80% of fiberization target from a total of 15.000 fiberized sites at the end of 2020.
• Data traffic grew by 47% to 4,869 PB in 2020, driven by a sharp increase in data demand, as families have had to work and study from home during the new normal.
