YOGYAKARTA - Some 174 internet hot-spots will be installed throughout Yogyakarta to help ease internet access in the city. A local partner of the tourism agency said this. "In the first phase, 14 internet hot-spots will be made available in Jalan Malioboro," said Fadjar Vyatatomo, general director of Hanoman Duta Mataram.
"Then we will set up hot-spots in the Babarsari area, Jalan Urip Sumoharjo, Pakualaman, Prambanan and Kaliurang." He said that the public would be able to access the internet for free during for the rest of the year. Starting from 2010, the first three hours of usage will be free. After that a fee has to be paid, but it was not known what the price would be.
Internet connections in the Javanese city of Yogyakarta are widely available, just as elsewhere in big cities on the island, but the sheer number of students and other people wanting to use the internet regularly causes the connections to be slow for most of the time. Dead connections because too many users are connected are also increasingly common in the 'City of Students'.
