He noted that the first accomplishment was the development of base transceiver stations (BTS). "By the end of last year, we completed around 5,000 BTS installations that had previously stalled," Setiadi said. The BTS inauguration at the end of 2023 was conducted directly by President Joko Widodo, coinciding with the launch of the Republic of Indonesia-1 Satellite (SATRIA-1).
