Mobile phones have become a daily necessity for Indonesian people. Besides being a communication tool, mobile phones are also used to access information and entertainment.

However, many areas in Indonesia still lack mobile phone signal, especially in remote, outermost, and inland regions.

Based on village potential data from the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS), in 2021 only 61,332 villages/sub-districts had strong mobile phone signals. This amounts to 72.93% of the total 84,096 villages/sub-districts throughout Indonesia.

Furthermore, 17,606 villages/sub-districts (20.94%) had weak signals, and 5,158 villages/sub-districts were not served by mobile phone signals in 2021.

Based on telecommunications infrastructure, 39,062 villages/sub-districts had Base Transceiver Stations (BTS), while 45,034 villages/sub-districts did not.

In 2019, strong mobile phone signals only reached 58,194 villages/sub-districts. This number increased to 61,052 villages/sub-districts in 2020 and further to 61,332 villages/sub-districts in 2021.
