Digital transformation initiatives in Kalimantan

Overview

Indonesian provincial governments in Kalimantan are implementing various digital transformation initiatives to improve regional services and connectivity.

In Central Kalimantan, the provincial government has begun distributing Starlink satellite internet devices as grants to remote villages. This program aims to bridge the digital divide by providing access to education, healthcare, and government services in areas with previously limited connectivity.

In North Kalimantan, the government is supporting a digital social assistance piloting program. This initiative, which expands upon a national program, utilizes digital technology to improve the accuracy of recipient determination and facilitate safer distribution through digital payments. Selected pilot areas include Tarakan City, Nunukan Regency, and Bulungan Regency, with local authorities tasked with managing registration and implementation via the Social Protection Portal.
