Thuraya signed a new agreement with Indonesia’s PTSOG to further boost existing business partnership between the two companies in the major Asian market.

In accordance with the agreement, PTSOG, which is a specialized radio and satellite communications retailer based in Indonesia, will be a key partner in promoting and providing Thuraya’s Public Calling Office (PCO) throughout the country.

Thuraya PCO is a highly affordable rural telephony solution that provides voice, fax, data and SMS services. Designed as manned payphone solution, the PCO makes these services available through a user-friendly public phone service station. Some common areas of applying this solution include rural villages, on-road phone stations, armed forces camps, recreational camping areas, relief zones and archaeological sites.

The project aims to connect remote and rural community islands in the country at a cost that is affordable by those communities, through Thuraya’s modern satellite telecom network.
