First Media announces commitment to serve one million homes with its “MEGAMEDIA” services in Jabodetabek through its cable and wireless infrastructure, to be completed by 2009. This announcement was delivered today at a press conference in Jakarta.

These Megamedia services reiterate the Lippo Group’s commitment through First Media in building and developing information, communication, entertainment and commerce as integrated in one company. First Media also strengthens its Management Team by recruiting professional experts in the industry.

Megamedia is a convergence of the so-called “Six Cs”: Cable TV (Multi-Channels Interactive Television); Computer (Internet Online Service); Communication (Data Service and Communication); Content (Internet and TV Content); Channels (Own Channel Production); and Commerce (TV Homeshopping and Internet E-Commerce).

“This is an exciting industry and First Media is building on this opportunity. We position ourselves in the opportunity of what we refer to as ‘convergence’ of different platforms in providing information and experience to the community”, said Dr. Yen Hsu, Chief Executive Officer First Media. “Our company, together with our entertainment infrastructure enable Indonesia to connect and access global information and entertainment as well as commerce, wherever and whenever they want it”, Dr. Yen Hsu added.
