PT Pos to install online systems at 2,000 post offices

Jakarta (ANTARA News) - State-owned postal services company PT Pos Indonesia will install online communication systems at 2,000 of the country`s 3,600 post offices by late this year to support business activity, the company`s chief said.

"Today 1,856 out of 3,600 post offices already use on-line systems but we will have increased the number to 2,000 by late this year," Hana Suryana, PT Pos president director, said here Thursday.

The on-line systems would enable PT Pos Indonesia to develop a business service dubbed Payment Point through which the public can pay phone, electricity and water as well as credit card bills.

Hana said PT Pos Indonesia was also already using the on-line system in a service run in cooperation with 16 banks enabling people to send or receive cash money through ATMs using the Alto system.

In the future, Hana said, PT Pos Indonesia would empower the online system by increasing business content.

Hana said PT Pos Indonesia could cooperate with the Communication and Information Ministry and telecommunication firm PT Telkom to obtain funds for the operation of online systems.
