Cofeco designates Telcel, Movistar and Iusacell as dominant in mobile calls completion

Indonesian telecoms operator PT Indosat has reported a strong rise in net profits for the first nine months of this year, thanks in part to a reduction in operating expenses. The telco’s CEO Harry Sasongko told reporters that his company booked net income of IDR992 billion (USD113 million) in January-September, while revenue climbed to IDR15.36 trillion from IDR14.84 trillion in the same period a year ago. Sasongko attributed the sharp rise in profits partly to a year-on-year fall in expenses to IDR850.2 billion, from IDR1.67 trillion in 9M10. [More]
