Shinta Dhanuwardoyo, the founder of Bubu.com and also a country national expert for WSIS, added:

This year we have more time to market this event through social media and the press. Me and my team will select eight candidates up to the requirements with potential to compete with other candidates around the world. I’m very optimistic that Indonesia can advance and be a strong [candidates] compared to other nations, not only in this competition.

We look forward to seeing which services are chosen to represent Indonesia, and wish them all the best of luck in advance!
