*Pendapatan PTT atau Pos Telegraf dan Telepon di berbagai negeri makin
berkurang, pertama yang hilang ialah telegraf, karena muncul apa yang
disebut "telex", jadi perusahaan atau orang di rumah bisa punya telex mesin
tidak perlu lagi ke kantor pos untuk mengirim beritanya, bisa langsung dari
rumah dengan telex. Kemudian telefon dan adanya  handphone yang
dioperasikan oleh berbagai operator, sekarang itu banyak negeri telefon box
di sudut jalan sudah tidak ada, karena orang memiliki handphone.  Jumlah
surat yang dikirim melalui post sudah makin bekurang, karena ada computer,
handphone. Bagunan megah kantor pos sudah tidak dipakai dan dijual, Saya
kira yang mula-mula menjual bangunan kantor pos pusat ialah Belanda , di
Amsterdam, dijual pada akhir 1970, menjadi toko. Pekerja di PTT pun sangat
sedikit karena untuk mensortir pos dipakai mesin, yang menyortir surat
menurut code pos penerima surat. Jadi kalau Anda kirim surat (tertulis)
jangan lupa tulis codenya, agar bisa cepat sampai ke yang di alamatkan. Di
Swedia sudah tidak ada kantor pos untuk mengirim surat atau paket ambil
duit, bisa dikirim dan diterima pada supermarket.**Sekian sedikit cerita
tentang PTT*. J*adi masalah yang sama pasti dialami oleh pos NKRI.  *

has
denied rife rumors that it is presently on the verge of bankruptcy.
Corporate secretary Benny Otoyo said the rumors were a discrediting act
sans data.

Benny mentioned that PT Pos Indonesia’s revenue was gained from the tax
deposit fees and courier services. “It reaches Rp800 billion on average per
year,” he said in Jakarta, Monday, July 22.

Moreover, the company has an A- rating, A- MTN rating, smoothly controls
all debts, has no postponement on employees’ salaries, fully controls all
of its assets, and no asset is collateralized.

Benny continued that the firm’s Pos Universal service that is available six
days a week has a turnover of up to Rp20 trillion per month, there is no
layoff because of restructuring, and the BPJS and pension dues are paid
without arrears.

The rumored bankruptcy first circulated on mass media, quoting the
statement of lawmaker Rieke Diah Pitaloka
<https://www.google.co.id/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=newssearch&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwiB84GRpMjjAhXEPY8KHdiJBDcQqQIIKSgAMAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.tempo.co%2Fread%2F918025%2Frieke-diah-pitaloka-urges-govt-to-revise-policy-on-foreign-worker&usg=AOvVaw1lTQ2OkpIYSQZtsfxONWrc>.
Reports said that Rieke demanded the government pay attention to the
crisis-stricken state enterprise.

*Tempo* tried to confirm the matter with Rieke, but there is no answer yet.

Other than the failure issue, Benny also declined reports saying the state
corporation took a bank loan to pay its employees’ wages. According to him,
no bank would give fund assistance for such an intention. In fact, the
corporation had loans for capital of daily operations.

He admitted that his company was dealing with technology disruption that he
considered a common issue. Therefore, PT Pos Indonesia runs a business
transformation in all of its aspects: business, human resources,
strengthening subsidiaries, and development of new products.
