Indonesia’s information and Communication Ministry promise to provide internet access to remote areas.
The central government has promised that the entire Krayan area will be connected through satellite networks so that every school and health clinic will have the Internet by 2023.
Despite an abundance of natural resources in the North Kalimantan area, it is largely underdeveloped with little electricity.
West Krayan District Head Secretary Dawat Odan said the entire Krayan region is facing the same problems.
“We want to develop the area, but we are limited by financial constraints,” Mr Odan said.
