In the fourth quarter of 2020 alone, revenue for the Enterprise segment reached IDR6.3 trillion, a significant growth of 67.9% compared to the third quarter of 2020.

The company's total capital expenditure in 2020 was IDR29.4 trillion or 21.6% of total revenue. The capital expenditures absorption in 2020 was lower than the projected plan due to the pandemic and the implementation of social and travel restrictions (PSBB). Our capital expenditures were mainly utilized to strengthen our networks and other infrastructures, including 4G LTE network, home fiber optic access network, submarine fiber optic backbone network as well as telecommunication towers and data centers to strengthen our digital capabilities, and to provide the best digital experiences for our customers.

"Amidst the pandemic that we still have to face, we would like to thank the Indonesian people for their trust to TelkomGroup various services.
