Tangerang to dismantle illegal towers

T

ANGERANG: The Tangerang regency will demolish hundreds of Base Transceiver Station (BTS) towers belonging to a number of cellular operators, for alleged violations of the regional ordinances on building permits and public order.

"We've summoned 12 cellular telecommunication operators today and if they do not respond, then we will take harsh measures," Kadmita, head of the regency's public order agency said Tuesday.

The cellular operators are PT Bakrie Telkom, PT Natriondo Telepon Selular, PT Sampoerna Telekomunikasi Indonesia, PT Indosat TBK, PT Protelindo, PT Telekom Indonesia DFWN, PT Smart Telecom, PT Mobile 8 Telecom, PT Solusi Tunas Pratama, PT Hutchisun SP Telecom Catur (HCPT), PT Exelcomindo Pratama, TBK and PT Telekomunikasi Selular.

He said this was the second summons. The agency summoned the cellular operators on Sept. 30, but representatives of those firms failed to appear.
