MAIN ISSUESINTERCONNECT PHYSICAL PRICE INTERCONNECT SYSTEM
WHY INTERCONNECT IS DIFFICULT ? “BIG BROTHER” (PSTN OPERATOR) “LOOSING SHARE” “COMPETITION” “LOOSING TRAFFIC” “IMAGE CHALLENGED” NEW ENTRANCES ARE SEEN AS “THREAT” INSTEAD OF “PARTNERS” WHICH CONTRIBUTE (BRING & CREATE) MORE REVENUE TO PSTN OPERATOR
THE MONEY GO BACK TO FIXED-OPR NEW OPERATOR LEASED LINES PSTN OPERATOR NEW OPERATOR TRAFFIC NEW OPERATOR MARKET DEVELOPED ORIGINAL TELECOMMUNICATION MARKET PSTN OPERATOR SHOULD NOT SEE NEW ENTRANCES AS “THREAT” BUT AS “BIG CUSTOMERS” AND “PARTNERS” WHO CONTRIBUTE (BRING & CREATE) MORE REVENUE TO PSTN OPERATOR

HOW SHOULD THE GAME BE PLAYED ? INTERCONNECT SHOULD BE TREATEDAS “SERVICE” SERVICE BUYER (BULK PURCHASE) SUPPLIER (BIG STOCKS) THE PLAYERS PSTN OPERATOR NEW ENTRANCES “WHOLESALE TREATMENT”
RESPONSIBILITY, RIGHT & OBLIGATION “SERVICE” SHOULD APPLY “RIGHT & RESPONSIBILITY” DEAL COMMON BUSINESS PRACTICE INTERCONNECT SHOULD BE TREATEDAS “SERVICE” BUYER (NEW ENTRANCE) SUPPLIER (PSTN OPERATOR) SERVICE DELIVERY * QUALITY/ RELIABILITY * CAPACITY * PRICE * AVAILABILITY
4 MAIN REASONS TO BUILD OWN OVERLAY NETWORK COMMON BUSINESS PRACTICE OWN OVERLAY NETWORK IS JUST LIKE A COMMON INVESTMENT WHICH REQUIRES “HUGE FINANCE” & COSTS“OPERATION & MAINTENANCE HEADACHE” OWN OVERLAY NETWORK OTHER NETWORK 1. QUALITY/ RELIABILITY 2. CAPACITY 3. PRICE 4. AVAILABILITY IF THE SERVICE IS NOT SATISFACTORILY DELIVERED, IT WILL ENCOURAGE THE DEVELOPMENT OF EXCLUSIVE OVERLAY NETWORK WHICH BECOMES IN FACT, A LONG DISTANCE OPERATOR
INTERCONNECTION NEED A PRICE INDONESIA'S SITUATION : INTERIM SOLUTION X X X X REVENUE SHARING IS APPLIED AS EACH PARTIES ARE NOT ABLE TO DETERMINE THE PRICE OF EACH “INTERCONNECT BUILDING BLOCK” PSTN CELLULAR
800 900 X X Customer base Customer acquisition Cost of revenue-collection (RISK) REVENUE SHARING DOES NOT INCORPORATE ALL SERVICE ASPECTS X X Mobile operator is eligible for 15 % of long distance tariff ALL KIND OF VALUE ADDED SERVICES AND PREMIUM MAKE REVENUE SHARING EVEN MORE DIFFICULT REVENUE SHARING IS APPLIED ON “USAGE CHARGES” NOT ON DELIVERED ADDED VALUE

CONCLUSION HOW TO COME TO “WIN - WIN” SITUATION • STEP 1. The connecting parties should see each other as customer and supplier • > PROVIDING BEST SERVICE • STEP 2. The network development plan of each parties should be well coordinated • > TO ENSURE DELIVERY • STEP 3. The regulator must set “clear rule of the game” and play as “referee” • > TO SUPPORT EQUAL TREATMENT • STEP 4. The ”interconnect building block” of the service must be priced • > COST ALLOCATION
