AB  - Now a days, telecommunication grows fast both in speed and capacity, especially in Indonesia. In
the other side, research about telecommunication implementation in Indonesia is not popular. Most researches
in telecommunication focus on technology or business aspect. Based on this problem in this research, we
analyze the statistic of telecommunication in Indonesia by using computational technology, especially,
clustering method. We use K-medoids method rather than k-means method or agglomerative method as in our
previous work. We analyze the statistic on computer usage, fixed line telecommunication, cellular
telecommunication and internet access. Through this research, it is found that in fixed line telecommunication,
disparity between provinces in Java island and provinces outside Java island is very wide. In the other side, in
cellular telecommunication there is not any disparity between provinces in Java island and provinces outside
Java island. In relation with average of net wage of the citizen in some regions there is positive relation between
average of net wage and telecommunication penetration. Meanwhile, in other regions there is not any relation
between average of net wage and telecommunication penetration.
