PT Indonesian Satellite’s cellular subscriber base fell by 12 per cent at the end of the first quarter of 2006 from 14.4 million at the end of 2005. The decrease was in line with the company’s effort to clean up unprofitable cellular subscribers. The decrease, according to the company, will not have much impact on the company’s revenue for the January-March 2006 period. Indosat’s 2005 net profit was down 0.6 per cent to IDR1.62 trillion from IDR1.63 trillion in 2004.
