MILESTONES OF INDONESIAN SATELLITE INDUSTRY • 1976: First PALAPA series (PALAPA-A 1) satellite launched. Indonesia became third country and the first developing country who own its own domestic satellite • 1977: launching of PALAPA-A 2 • 1983 – 1992: PALAPA-B series satellite launched • 1996: PALAPA-C series launched • 1997: Cakrawarta-1 (BSS) satellite launched • 1999: Telkom-1 satellite launched • 2005: Telkom-2 satellite launched • 2007: First N-GSO experimental satellite launched (LAPANTUBSAT) • 2009: PALAPA-D launched

SATELLITE POLICY AND REGULATION IN INDONESIA (1/4) • • Before 2005, it was realized the need to have space and satellite regulations in order to cope with the rapid development in this sector, taking into account the changes in Indonesian telecommunication industry structure. In 2005 the first specific satellite management regulation: Ministrial Decree Number 13 Year 2005 regarding Telecommunication using the satellites) which amended by Ministrial Decree Number 37 Year 2006 Those two regulations began to regulate provision of licensing access to satellite in Indonesia, the usage of satellite orbital slot including its filing notification and coordination provisions to ITU. It is realized that the licensing regulation need to be enhanced and more effective. Therefore, DG Postel are currently drafting new satellite regulation.

SATELLITE POLICY AND REGULATION IN INDONESIA (2/4) Set of applicable laws and regulations for satellite: • Law No. 36/1999: Telecommunication Law • Govt. Regulation No. 52/2000: Telecommunication Provision • Govt.

FOREIGN SATELLITES LICENSED TO OPERATE IN INDONESIA (1/2) REGULATION: Indonesia licensed telecommunication provider or subscribing broadcasting body shall have a landing right in order to provide service using a foreign satellite in Indonesia REQUIREMENTS: - Reciprocal principle: similar opportunity to Indonesian satellite provider to provide service in the subject country - Complete all the necessary satellite coordination with all the Indonesian terrestrial and satellite networks - Guarantee that no harmful interference will be caused to the existing and planned Indonesian terrestrial and satellite networks

FOREIGN SATELLITES LICENSED TO OPERATE IN INDONESIA (2/2) No. Notifying Administration Number of satellites providing service in Indonesia 1. China 11 2. US 8 3. UK 2 4. Japan 2 5. Holland, Germany, 1 6 Malaysia, Singapore, Tonga, Thailand 1 Based on the above, some of satellite bandwidth in Indonesia are fulfilled by the foreign satellite.

WAYS TO FULFILL DEMAND • Launch new satellites by Indonesian operators - financial constraints to launch new satellites. - very difficult to find orbital slot location with appropriate spectrum and coverage areas (particularly C, Ku-band). • Leasing satellite capacity from foreign satellites - landing rights procedure required - completed coordination with Indonesian satellite and terrestrial networks shall be required. • Collaboratively procurement new satellites with other satellite operators in the region or in the world • • • Shall have approval from Government (DG Postel and Minister of Communications and IT). Need to establish the roles and responsibility on each party including the roles and responsibilities. Should comply with long term ICT and spectrum policy and planning.

CONCLUSION 1. Demand for satellite capacity is still high in Indonesia 2. Satellite policy and regulation in Indonesia is established to encourage fair competition among satellite operators and industries, so that the demand for satellite capacity could be fulfilled 3. More satellite capacity is needed especially for covering the rural areas where demand for connectivity is raising and the availability of terrestrial telecommunication services are difficult 4. Satellite will never be banished from realm of Indonesian telecommunication infrastructure despite more and more terrestrial networks are built to connect the nation
