“Currently the technical team in the field continues to work intensively 24 hours a day to ensure telecommunications services remain available to the community and the authorities handling disaster management,” said Desy in her official statement, Monday (1/12).
“Our team continues to strive to make repairs and mobilize generators to maintain generator operations,” he continued.
According to him, conditions in areas inundated by floods and covered by landslides are a challenge and obstacle to speeding up the recovery process.Another challenge is the limited supply of fuel for generators and access to terrain that is difficult for the XLSmart technical team to navigate due to roads blocked by landslides.
However, according to him, currently services in several affected areas have begun to recover and can be used.
To date, a total of around 691 BTS are still affected in a number of regions, including 538 BTS in the Aceh region (Pidie Jaya District, North Aceh District, East Aceh District, and Aceh Tamiang District), 120 BTS in the North Sumatra region (Central Tapanuli District, South Tapanuli District, and Sibolga City), and 33 BTS in the West Sumatra region (Padang District).Pariaman, Tanah Datar District, and Solok District).
Previously, the Minister of Communications and Digital (Menkomdigi) Meutya Hafid asked cellular operators (opsel) to immediately carry out repairs at sites affected by floods and landslides in Central Tapanuli and Sibolga, North Sumatra.
“These [network disruptions] are mostly BTS installations belonging to cellular operators. We ask them to continue to monitor and immediately make repairs, and most importantly also inform the public which points are affected,” said Meutya at the Merdeka Palace, Jakarta, Thursday (27/11).
