Article Abstract:

Asian governments have lessons to learn from the privatization of PT Telekomunikasi Indonesia (Telkom). Telkom's transfer to private hands should teach governments to lower their expectations and be more aware of the workings of global markets. As a result of the Telkom experience, fund managers believe Asian governments will reduce the size of infrastructure offerings and share issuers will adjust prices slightly downward.
