Since a month ago, Indonesian Telecommunication Regulatory Body (BRTI) has released an announcement about vacancies for their committees. On these vacancies, BRTI will recruit 5 committees which consist of expert from the field of telecommunication, information technology, public policy, law and economic. Current committee members from independent or public are: Dr. Ir. Bambang P. Adiwiyoto, M.Sc, Ir. Koesmarihati, IPM, Kamilov Sagala, SH, MH, Hery Nugroho, SE, M.Si, dan Ir. Heru Sutadi, M.Si., while from government is Prof. Abdullah Alkaff, PhD. The chairman of BRTI is Basuki Yusuf Iskandar who is also as Director General of Post and Telecommunication. Actually all independent committees have finished their service.

However, up to 5 days before the 2nd closing date only few participant who apply for the committee members. The closing date is Nov 11th, 2008. This date is actually an extension of previous closing date, Nov 4th. Only 19 participants so far and DG Postel is worry about this. Gatot Dewa S. Broto, public relation of DG Postel said that there will be a special meeting to resolve the problem.

There are many possible reasons why the interest is very low. Firstly, to be a committee member you should be an expert in the corresponding field. Secondly, some thinks that the reward that was received was not in accordance with responsibility that was carried out. And lastly, many realizes that the challenge and the responsibility of BRTI in the future will be very complicated.

Anyway, BRTI should exist. A full effort shall be done to make this body remains exist.
