Telecommunications has changed the nature of the continuous, barely edged and capable of changing the face of the world order, changing patterns of human thought, affect behavior and life of mankind. Telecommunications is now become a necessity of life who equated with human rights.
Nearly a decade of telecommunications Indonesia entered a new history. Through Law No. 36/1999 regarding Telecommunications, this sector is officially off the monopoly privilege to immediately transition to the era of competition. The new competitors were invited to enter into a network operator or service in this sector. Many people berlega to welcome the birth of the telecommunications legislation. Moreover, the year of birth also Law No. 5 / 1999 regarding Prohibition of Monopolistic Practices and Unfair Business Competition.
But the competition was far from telecommunications. Appears many parties requested the establishment of independent regulatory bodies. An Independent Regulatory Body (IRB-Independent Regulatory Body) is expected to protect the public interest (telecommunications users) and to support and protect the competitive telecommunications business to become healthy, efficient and attract investors.
Dated July 11, 2003 the government finally issued a Decree of the Minister of Transportation No.. 31/2003 regarding the determination of the Indonesian Telecommunications Regulatory Body (BRTI). BRTI is the translation version of the IRB that the government is expected to eventually become an ideal Regulatory Board.
Comments that many of the later is considered to be half-hearted government as one of the BRTI personnel as well as a Chairman is the Director General of Post and Telecommunication. Kepmenhub No. 31/2003 The [amended by Regulation No. Minister of Communications and Informatics. 25/Per/M.Kominfo/11/2005 about the First Amendment to Decree of the Minister of Transportation No.. KM.31 the year 2003 concerning the Indonesian Telecommunications Regulatory Board] did not authorize the executor to BRTI. It is stipulated in the Decree of the Minister of Transportation No.. 67 of 2003 on Procedure of Employment between the Transport Ministry with the Indonesian Telecommunications Regulatory Agency so questionable effectiveness in guarding BRTI telecommunications competition.
But apart from the polemic over, a common duty to encourage the already established BRTI can work a maximum so as to spur the development of the telecommunications industry through the climate of competition, improve efficiency and protect the public interest is de facto and de jure.
