Interconnection costs in Indonesia are relatively high compared to other Asian countries. According to 2015 data from the Telecommunication Management Group, the cost borne by the originating operator for cross-operator calls was US$0.0211, or approximately Rp 275 per minute. In Malaysia, this cost was only US$0.0119.

These high interconnection costs in Indonesia discourage consumers from making calls between different operators. Consequently, the ownership of multiple SIM cards is quite common, and the use of dual-SIM smartphones is very high in Indonesia.

In addition to consumers avoiding calls between operators, mobile service providers focus more on promoting calls within their own network. As a result, the rate of inactive SIM cards in Indonesia is very high, reaching 10-14% per month.
