AT&T, the second-largest US wireless provider, said it had won a license to provide multimedia services in Indonesia, allowing it offer such services as teleconferencing and managing computer networks.
AT&T Global Network Services Indonesia, a local venture 95 percent owned by the US giant, is the first foreign operator granted such a permit in Indonesia. AT&T will invest about $1 billion this year to enhance services on its global network offering cloud computing and mobile applications to help businesses increase productivity and cut costs.
Previously, AT&T relied on local partners to help set up virtual private networks for customers, he said. The company’s local venture will now expand to provide services including video conferencing directly to customers. With the license, the US firm has the chance to make new inroads here.
AT&T originally submitted its proposal for the license two years ago, but the ministry only granted the license on May 27.
