In compliance with our commitment to continuously attempt to meet various needs of services for customer finance, in this opportunity we would like to inform that in November 2002, we widened the scope of payment facility of electricity claim of PLN (PRAQTIS) in the area of Surabaya and its vicinities. Formerly, the payment facility of electricity claim of PLN (PRAQTIS) in Bank Bumiputera was only available for PLN electricity customers domiciled in Jakarta and Tangerang. The advantage of PRAQTIS payment facility of PLN electricity by Bank Bumiputera is not only applicable to the customers, but also can be used to cover the people having their customer number and area code registered in Bank Bumiputera. To provide the facility and convenience, the customers may also make payment of electricity claim by standing instruction, so that the monthly payment of electricity claim will be conducted automatically by Bank Bumiputera.
