JAKARTA: Communication service providers are pushing for progress in the rollout of 5G networks across the country, warning that without the next-generation wireless technology, Indonesia could miss out on opportunities in industries like manufacturing, healthcare and smart cities.
“The availability of ultra-low latency services is crucial for new industries like telemedicine and autonomous vehicles,” Raditio Ghifiardi, Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison’s vice-president of security strategy and architecture, said on the sidelines of the Gitex Global conference in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates, on Oct 16.
