Indonesian telecommunication company, PT Telekomunikasi Indonesia (Telkom), dominates the international call market in the country, a Telkom official said here Monday.

Telkom's Marketing Communication and Public Affairs VP Eddy Kurnia said that Telkom, through its 007 dial number, is dominating 53 percent of international calls in Indonesia at the moment.

Telkom is currently establishing cooperation with 45 international telecommunication operators. It serves 8.7 million fixed phone subscribers, 13.5 million non-wired subscribers and 68 million cellular phone subscribers.

The state-run telecommunication company is seeking more cooperation with more telecommunication firms to expand its inter connection services.

"As long as it fits with the existing regulation and is profitable, we want to set up more inter connection cooperation with more telecommunication firms in the world," he said quoted by Bisnis Indonesia daily as saying Monday.

Indonesian international call market has been largely served by two large domestic telecommunication firms Telkom and PT Indonesia Satellite (Indosat). Another domestic telecommunication firm PT Bakrie Telecom tries to tap international call market with dial number of 009.

Learning on the lucrative international call market, a publicly- listed telecommunication company PT Excelcomindo Pratama (XL) intends to open such a call service.
