JAKARTA, Aug. 1 (Xinhua) -- The Indonesian government has launched its own metaverse platform, named MetaNesia, as an effort to adapt to the fast-changing digital ecosystem, the country's State-owned Enterprises Minister Erick Thohir said Monday.
The virtual world, launched Sunday, is developed by state-owned telecommunications company PT Telkom Indonesia, and will be the place for Indonesia's small and medium enterprises to promote their goods on an equal footing with larger foreign businesses.
