The company`s head of communications, Saifuddin Zuhri, told reporters on Tuesday, other regions under consideration for the new plants were located Sumatra, Java and Papua.
“We will soon set up a team in connection with the plan and will possibly invite consultants from abroad for it. Some locations that have been mapped out will be surveyed to see their feasibility," he said.
