Government Targets 100 Mbps Mobile Internet Speed by 2029
The Indonesian government has set an ambitious target to improve the quality of internet connectivity in the country. In a newly announced strategic plan, the government aims for the national average mobile broadband speed to reach 100 Mbps by 2029.
This step is being taken to support the increasingly rapid digital transformation across various sectors of public life. Increasing internet speed is considered crucial for Indonesia to compete globally and provide better access to information for all citizens.
To achieve this target, the government will optimize the mid-band spectrum. This technology will later be used to strengthen 5G networks in various regions, making internet connections more stable and faster for smartphone users.
In addition to spectrum optimization, the government also plans to continue expanding telecommunications infrastructure to areas that have not yet been reached optimally. With a wider 5G network, it is hoped that the digital divide between regions in Indonesia can be reduced soon.
This target is expected to be a major driver for Indonesia's digital economy over the next five years. The public is now awaiting the realization of this government plan so that the experience of surfing the internet becomes much smoother and more efficient.
