Jakarta [Indonesia], Sept 1 (ANI): The "Asian Games" is one of the world's largest multi-sport events held every four years since 1954. This year's games mark the second time that Indonesia has hosted the quadrennial event.

More than 16,000 athletes from 45 Asian countries are participating in the event. For this time, NEC Indonesia has become the supporting sponsor and ICT (Information and Communication Technology) security system partner for the Asian Games.

NEC Indonesia, which was established in 1968, has a long-term relationship with the Indonesian market.

Ever since Asian Games 1962 was hosted for the first time in Jakarta, NEC has been providing ICT solutions, aiming to leverage on ICT to provide reliable network system, make enterprise more efficient and productive and also make cities smarter and safer.

Moreover, it is contributing to create a better society and improve people's lives in Indonesia.

Ichiro Kurihara, NEC Indonesia President said: "Based on our experiences to supply a lot of solutions for Asian Games in the past, we are sure that there are still many opportunities in Indonesia especially in the public sector. Nowadays, ICT is becoming very basic and fundamental to people's daily activities. Indonesia has such a huge potential market for us. We would like to improve Indonesian society to be safer and smarter and contribute to the improvement of Indonesian social infrastructure."

In Asian Games 2018, there are many scenes where NEC supports INASGOC's (Indonesia Asian Games 2018 Organising Committee) effort and management for the Games to realise smart, safe and efficient environment, both for athletes and guests, through the provision of innovative venue ICT solutions, including network infrastructure and surveillance systems.

Sony Surya Nurchaya of NEC Indonesia elucidated: "NEC provided a network system that was very fundamental to manage this Asian Games event. The system connected a total of 92 sites. Implementing worldwide games like Asian Games is a very difficult task because it consists of not only gathering people from many countries but also it requires solving many types of obstacles involved. I am sure that NEC has strong integration capability as well as project management and operation to support this big event."

At the Asian Games 2018, the NEC proudly shows that it is great to play the supporting role for athletes and audiences by providing a comfortable environment for them, as well as enhancing fan experiences using ICT technology.
