2015, Indonesia's ICT Development Classified as Moderate

Indonesia's Information and Communication Technology Development Index (IP-TIK) in 2015 reached 4.83, an increase from its 2014 level. This figure falls into the "medium" category on a scale of 0-10. The IP-TIK is an indicator of a region's information and communication technology development. International indicators such as internet bandwidth, literacy rates, and the number of mobile phone users contributed to the 2015 IP-TIK score.

The ICT Development Index is measured based on three sub-indices: access and infrastructure (5 indicators), usage (3 indicators), and skills (3 indicators). The higher the sub-index score, the greater its influence on the national IP-TIK. Data used for calculating the IP-TIK comes from surveys conducted by the Central Statistics Agency (Badan Pusat Statistik), namely the SUSENAS, and secondary data from the Ministry of Communication and Informatics (Kementerian Kominfo).

The ICT Development Index is categorized as low if the IP-TIK is below 4.69. It is categorized as medium if the IP-TIK is between 4.69 and 7.07. An IP-TIK above 7.07 falls into the high category. The Information and Communication Technology Development Index was developed by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) as the ICT Development Index in 2008. A higher IP-TIK indicates faster information technology development in a region, while a lower score indicates slower development.
