​Arsenal expand into Indonesia

Indosat, one of Indonesia's largest telecoms network service providers, has joined Arsenal as their official telecommunications partner in Indonesia for the next two years, reports, www.sportspromedia.com/.

Covering the ongoing 2015/16 and 2016/17 seasons, the deal will see Indosat and its customers receive a series of benefits and incentives, including exclusive match highlights, club news, player interviews and photographs to be distributed to Indosat's subscribers.

Indosat is owned by Qatar-based telecoms giant Ooredoo, who operate throughout the Middle East and Asia.

Arsenal's chief commercial officer, Vinai Venkatesham, said: "Arsenal has a huge following in Indonesia and following our 2013 pre-season tour, which saw the team travel to Jakarta, the fan base has grown significantly.

"More Indonesian fans follow Arsenal on Facebook than in any other country and we are delighted that our commitment to, and popularity in, Indonesia has been recognised through this agreement."
