The consortium scheduled a three years development and operation investment. Estimated 3 billions rupiahs will cover all development and operation during such period...
I am not sure the consortium could meet project schedule, for many reason..
- less govt involvement (to ensure that palapa rings consortium will meet the original objectives; for Indonesia people).
- less feasible business for smaller and start up telco/network-operator player. (telco oriented business model)
- investment shared portion (telkom as the biggest investor most likely will lead the consortium... (meaning: it all depends to telkom investing mood).
anyhow, let's see how it's gonna work.. hope for the best for Indonesia :)
