Research and Markets: Indonesia - Telecoms, Mobile, Broadband and Forecasts Report: Comprehensive Overview of the Latest Trends and Developments


Dublin, Jul 07, 2009 (M2 PRESSWIRE via COMTEX) -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/c5f240/indonesia_teleco) has announced the addition of the "Indonesia - Telecoms, Mobile, Broadband and Forecasts" report to their offering.



Indonesia - Telecoms, Mobile, Broadband and Forecasts provides a comprehensive overview of the trends and developments in the telecommunications and converging media markets in Indonesia.

Indonesia has built a substantial telecom sector, providing a solid platform for further growth despite the occasional serious setback. This country of around 250 million people presents a huge potential market; however, it faces some particularly big challenges that need to be confronted if it is to successfully continue the building of the telecommunications infrastructure needed to support what is a uniquely complex geography. At the same time, there is no avoiding the fact that Indonesia must also deal with a range of social, political and economic issues that have been proving problematic.


Key highlights: - Indonesia's mobile market passed 130 million subscribers in early 2009 with penetration running at 55%.

- After more than seven straight years of strong growth, the annual increase in mobile subscribers was almost 50%.

- Indonesia's 3G market was still in its infancy three years after launch, with 3G subscribers representing only about 7% of the total mobile subscriber base.

- Mobile market leader Telkomsel has made a big impact on the still small 3G market with 72% of the nine million subscribers coming into 2009.

- Internet penetration remains low (12% user penetration by end-2008) and Internet subscription rates are considerably lower.

- Broadband Internet access numbers in Indonesia are starting to grow, but penetration remains exceedingly low (0.2%).

- DSL remains the dominant broadband platform with about 95% of the broadband subscriptions.
