16. What we have learned
from our experience?
1. SMS technology combined with a database of people,
able to convey information in a very specific
segment (based on location, age, gender, social
class, etc.)
2. The convergence of technology makes
information more effectively (SMS to newsletters,
newsletter to SMS, SMS to twitter, etc)
3. Collecting residents data not only get mobile phone
numbers, but could derive a very rich data (skill,
business type, etc.)
17. What we have learned
from our experience?
Size:1 GB mobile internet = 6,4 milion SMS
1 SMS = Rp. 100
1 GB = Rp. 25.000 6.400.000x100=Rp.640.000.000
1 25.600
mobile internet SMS
4. Compared with mobile internet rates, the cost of
SMS is relatively expensive. However SMS
remains selected because most villagers still use SMS
instead of mobile internet.
18. What we have learned
from our experience?
sender keep all cost based tarrifs
Rp. XX Rp. 0 Rp. XX Rp. 23
provider A provider B provider A provider B
4. Since Juni 2012, there are new regulation -from the
sender keep all to cost based tariffs- forced
mobile operators to change their policy related to free
SMS.
5. This caused the basic assumption of MK160 dramatically
change and cost a lot money to send broadcast SMS
to Timbulharjo residents.
19. What are our next plans?
1. Setting business model to support MK-160
sustainability. e.g: act as local commercial channel
for Timbulharjo resident business, cooperate
with NGO and/or local government to share
information and/or as media center.
2. Explore the possibility to cooperation with
mobile provider in various areas: CSR, business
cooperation etc.
20. Recommendation
1. Short term: use multiple numbers from
different mobile operators to send SMS to
Timbulharjo residents
2. Medium term: cooperate with mobile
provider, and asked the government to
implement special policies for community
SMS. e.g: by applying Universal Service Obligation
(USO).
3. Long term: SMS tariff policy advocacy
for the bottom of the pyramid users.
