Los Angeles, 5 June 2015 – Tulus Sudarsono as Chairman of Telkom USA said that the presence of a company must provide meaning for the community surrounding communities. For that reason Telkom USA deems it necessary to present Radio Indonesia service for the Indonesian Community residing in the United States.
Along with the 2015 IWA (Indonesia Woman Alliance) congress event at KJRI-LA in May 2015, where Telkom USA became one of its main sponsors. Telkom USA introduced the Radio Indonesia service to the people of Indonesia located in Los Angeles, California. One way is to distribute Radio Indonesia service brochures to Indonesian women IWA 2015 congress participants who are the main target of Radio Indonesia service listeners. The Indonesian radio can be accessed via dial to +1 (857) 216-6694 after which it will be responded by IVR (Interactive Voice Respond) who asks the listener to choose to press numbers 1 through 9.
Head of Operations Telkom USA, Tony Adi Wibowo conveyed the principle of technology used is streaming radio content with integrated to phone system, which in the technology can be divided into some of the best radio channel in Indonesia into 9 radio stations with various genres that can be chosen by themselves by the listener.
Tony added that telephone usage in the United States is already a commodity, where the cost of the phone is flat rate in the package plan (eg USD 20 per month for unlimited calls to all domestic phone numbers in the United States or Flat USD 15 per month for unlimited call international to Indonesia). So if the listeners contact Radio Indonesia on domestic phone numbers in the United States (857) 216-6694 can be considered free, because call domestic in the United States and not call-based duration as in Indonesia.
