The Indonesian government has asked the country’s biggest telecommunication firm Telkom (TLKM.JK) to buy back up to 35% of a stake owned by Singapore’s Singtel (STEL.SI) in its mobile unit Telkomsel, a ministry official said on Thursday.

The state-owned entreprise ministry official gave the instruction to Telkom’s board of management during an annual shareholders’ meeting.
