Actually i have tried a set of NIk+KK registered four sim card online. More then what the website stated. |
Thank you,thank you...this is good information. So,can i safely said that i ,as a tourist can actually sign up for 3 indo sim card in each different Telco companies with my passport at their service center? If there are 10 telco companies,i can have 30 sim cards. Note,i dont plan to register any sim card via NIK/KTP + KK number (becos i dont have that).
The part where it amazed me is that when i lost my phone with a certain Indonesia telco company's sim card,i will be able to retrieve back the same sim card number again. Impressive!

I suspect that some one(Ktp/Kk) info might be sold together with the Sim card.

If all these (pre-registered sim card) CAN be done in Singapore (not exactly legal), i would foresee it being done way much easily in Indonesia.
All hotels will have many personal information,hehehe...

I agreed with your examples,hehehe...
I think what bro Blackpage meant by being complex...

...probably means that the policy of needing to register a sim card was meant to keep "things" in control,eg terrorist etc....but base on the look of it now,it has become rather redundant as their objective were not properly serve.
It also doesnt affect the locals so much ,but more of giving tourist/s and foreigners a bigger impact of inconvenience.
If i were to be some terrorist or someone planning to abuse those sim cards,i simply just take a ferry to reach Harbour Bay,upon checking out of custom,i walk about 25 steps forward to buy a sim card,put it on my phone and off i can start using. (tested)

My solution from a shorter stay Batam tourist's perspective is still, step out of custom,walk to the nearest sim card seller, ask for a sim card without registration; test it out,pay and go.
Only 50k rupiah. My sim card problem solved,hehehe...no need waste time to go until their respective telco company's service center to buy workable ones.

...and if i am permanently staying in Batam,i might probably register those sim card/s with another person's particulars,but never with street vendors.
