Ten million people in Indonesia still have no access to electricity.

TEMPO.CO, Takalar - The Energy and Mineral Resources Ministry (ESDM) stated that around 10 million people still have no access to electricity.

"10 million people still use paraffin lamp or kerosene lamp, so the state has to provide electricity to regions still unreached by state-owned electricity company PT PLN," ESDM's energy conservation and renewable energy director general Rida Mulyana said in Takalar Regency, South Sulawesi on Friday, Feb. 9.

"ESDM Minister demanded that energy can be accessed by all Indonesian citizens with affordable price," he went on.

He continued that to reach areas having no access to electricity, ESDM has built 600 PLTS and more power sources will be built by using local resources.
