“In 11 cities, DTT/Digital penetration rose from 59 percent as of December 1, 2022 to 73 percent as of January 1, 2023,” said the Nielsen survey.
The survey revealed that DTT/digital penetration in the six cities already affected by ASO showed significant increases.
In Greater Jakarta, the number of digital TV viewers recorded an increase from 70 percent on December 1, 2022 to 82 percent as of January 1, 2023,

Meanwhile, DTT / Digital penetration in five cities not yet affected by ASO has not seen a significant increase, namely Greater Denpasar which still shows 53 percent, Medan 30 percent, Makassar 55 percent, Palembang 43 percent and Banjarmasin 44 percent.
Nielsen also revealed the composition of digital TV viewers by socio-economic class in 11 cities, which showed an increase in the middle and lower classes.
For the middle class, the number of digital TV viewers rose from 53 percent on December 21, 2022 to 56 percent on January 1, 2023.
Digital TV viewership from the lower class was recorded to rise from six percent on December 21, 2022 to eight percent on January 1, 2023.
