In this post I want to give a global map of the current telecommunication players in Indonesia. This is not intended to give a complete profile of the telcos but just to implicitly mention how competitive is the domestic telecommunication market todays. The figure above shows the dominant players. Several facts are worth to be noted.First, the wireless access technology has won the 'game' :-D . Wireless telcos would still be able to pay their employees even though they give away their voice services for free (SMS is the King!).
Then, the development of wired access infrastructures is slow because CAPEX is higher (compared to wireless). The operators would surely more focus on FWA and leave the 'traditional' fixed line access infrastructures behind. The 'war' in this area would be more intensive in the near future e.g. due to new FWA players (some operators are currently applying for a license).
Finally, the competition for network services in some major metro areas is higher than that several years before. The same is also expected for long distance network services in the upcoming months.
