News Summary:
On July 9, 2026, Telkom Indonesia’s satellite arm engaged a French direct-to-device satellite partner, marking its third such collaboration in eighteen months, following agreements with American and Emirati firms. Previously, on June 29, 2026, Indonesia’s fixed broadband market continued to benefit from accelerating digitalization and increasing demand for high-speed internet across households and businesses; despite being one of Southeast Asia's largest internet markets, fixed broadband penetration remains relatively low, indicating significant room for fiber expansion. On the same day, Telkom restored the Nusa Tenggara Barat (NTB) coast by planting mangroves and establishing a new nursery, addressing the annual loss of approximately 52,000 hectares of mangrove forests in Indonesia, which serve as natural coastal protectors and carbon sinks. Also on June 29, Telkom empowered 200 teachers in Tarakan with AI digital training, against the backdrop of a significant rise in AI use for learning activities in Indonesia, which reached 43.98% in 2026, up from 21.84% the prior year. This follows an appreciation on June 24, 2026, from Golkar Legislator Firnando H Ganinduto for Telkom Indonesia achieving its highest dividend in 2026, surpassing the previous year's figures.
