Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia – The Telkomsel and Indihome networks experienced disruption starting on Sunday afternoon (19/9/2021) at 17.33 WIB. This problem many users complain about on Twitter.
Telkom’s Vice President of Corporate Communication, Pujo Pramono, said that the disruption of Telkomsel and Indihome services occurred due to a disturbance in the JaSuKa (Java, Sumatra and Kalimantan) submarine cable system for the Batam-Pontianak section.
“The disturbance was identified as originating from a point about 1.5 km off the coast of Batam at a depth of 20 meters below sea level. By knowing the point of disturbance, we immediately prepare repair efforts so that the infrastructure can immediately function normally,” he said in a written statement Monday (20 / 20). 9/2021).
Pujo Pramono said that to overcome Indihome and Telkomsel disturbances, his party immediately rerouted traffic as an alternative communication route to Batam, including adding the capacity of several links in Indonesian territory such as from Papua, Kalimantan and Java and optimizing international gateways in Manado.
“Our focus is only one, so that the service immediately returns to normal and customers use it as usual,” he explained.
