Amdocs barred from billing tender in Indonesia
The Indonesian Ministry of Communication and Information Technology announced last Tuesday that it is investigating telecommunications companies that do business with Israel.
This announcement came the day after the communication and information technology minister disclosed that Amdocs was being excluded from a local tender because the controlling shareholders are Israeli.
The Jakarta Globe reported that on Monday Communications and Information Technology Minister Tifatul Sembiring said that Amdocs should not be included in the billing tender of Indonesian cellular service provider Telkom PT because Amdocs has Israeli shareholders. A spokesman said the ministry will investigate Israeli-affiliated telecommunications companies and sanction those found to be in violation of the regulation.
Sembiring is a member of PKS, the conservative Islamic Prosperous Justice Party, and said excluding Amdocs from the tender was justified because Israel has no diplomatic relations with Indonesia.
The newspaper also noted the criticism from a local consumer organization, whose analyst called Sembiring’s action “irrelevant” and unwise. The analyst said that Israeli technology was commonly used in the information-technology sector because Israel is a major producer of high-tech components, and Indonesia imports 90% of the telecommunication parts used in the country.
“Many of these could be from Israeli manufacturers or come from companies with Israeli shareholders,” he said. “How about products from Taiwan? Many of our telecommunications products are from Taiwan – another country that does not have diplomatic relations with Indonesia.” (taken from: Haaretz.com)

1Pada desember 31, Amdocs Inc (DOX) memberikan surat eksepsi untuk memasukkan form F3 kepada SEC. (Komisi Bursa Saham Amerika)
Form F3 sebenarnya hanya diperuntukkan bagi perusahaan/penerbit saham asing.
Menuruti definisi Form F3 dari : http://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/sec-form-f-3.asp
SEC Form F3 adalah formulir isian kepada SEC yang diperuntukkan untuk pendaftaran sekuritas oleh penerbit asing. SEC Form F-3 diwajibkan kepada penerbit sekuritas swasta asing (non-Amerika Serikat) yang mempunyai kapitalisasi pasar lebih besar dari 75 Juta dollar dan telah melaporkan sesuai UU no 1934 untuk minimum satu tahun. Form tersebut juga digunakan oleh penerbit swasta asing untuk mendaftarkan penawaran atas sekuritas yang tak dapat ditukar (non-convertible investment grade securities).
2Hal ini menimbulkan keraguan apakah Amdocs Inc memang benar-benar perusahaan amerika karena menurut SEC Amdocs Inc. (DOX) dipandang sebagai perusahaan/penerbit asing (foreign issuer) walaupun berdomisili di amerika serikat.
