In one of his posts, Indonesia an oil-rich country?,

I find it amazing that it is so expensive to make a call to Indonesia
from Malaysia. It’s even more expensive than a call to the U.S. –
which takes about 10 more times to travel to (20-hour vs. 2-hour

costs only half of that to call the U.S. (Telekom Malaysia’s (TM) rate)
