5,225 Villages in West Java Now Have 4G Signal Coverage

Telecommunication signals are a crucial factor in modern digital life. Daily communication, entertainment, education, business, and technology all rely on strong and fast signal support.

However, some areas, particularly remote villages, still lack access to communication signals. This hinders communication and information flow, leaving these areas behind.

According to data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) in West Java, 5,225 villages (87.9%) have access to 4G/LTE communication networks. 671 villages have 3G/H/H+/EVDO networks, and 43 villages have 2.5G/EDGE/GPRS networks. Only 5 villages in West Java lack access to any communication signal network.

Cirebon Regency has the highest number of villages/sub-districts with high-speed 4G/LTE signals, with 410 villages (96.7%) out of a total of 424 villages. The remaining 14 villages only have access to 3G/H/H+/EVDO networks.

In Bogor Regency, 386 villages (88%) out of 435 have 4G networks, while the remaining 49 only have 3G networks. In Garut Regency, 356 villages (81.46%) out of 437 have 4G networks, with the remaining 78 villages only having 3G networks.

Six cities in West Java – Depok (63 sub-districts), Bekasi (56 sub-districts), Sukabumi (33 sub-districts), Banjar (25 sub-districts), Cirebon (22 sub-districts), and Cimahi (15 sub-districts) – all have access to fast 4G networks.
