s. Employee benefits i. Short-term employee benefits All short term employee benefits which consist of salaries and related benefits, vacation pay, incentives and other short term benefits shall be recognized as expense on undiscounted basis when employees have rendered service to the Company and its subsidiaries. ii. Pension and post-retirement health care benefit plans The net obligations in respect of the defined pension benefit and post-retirement health care benefit plans are calculated at the present value of estimated future benefits that the employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods, less the fair value of plan assets and as adjusted for unrecognized actuarial gains or losses and unrecognized past service cost. The calculation is performed by an independent actuary using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows using interest rates of government bonds that are denominated in the currencies in which the benefits will be paid and that have terms to maturity approximating the terms of the related retirement benefit obligation. Government bonds are used as there is no deep market for high quality corporate bonds. Plan assets are assets that are held by the pension and post-retirement health care benefit plans. These assets are measured at fair value at the end of the reporting period, which is based on securities quoted market price information. The amount of prepaid pension costs that can be recognized is limited to the total of any unrecognized past service costs, unrecognized actuarial losses and the present value of economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan. Actuarial gains or losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions, when exceeding the greater of 10 of present value defined benefit obligation or 10 of fair value of plan assets, are charged or credited to the consolidated statements of comprehensive income over the average remaining service lives of the relevant employees. Prior service cost is recognized immediately if vested or amortized over the vesting period. For defined contribution plans, the regular contributions constitute net periodic costs for the period in which they are due and as such are included in staff costs as they become payable. iii. Long Service Awards “LSA” and Long Service Leave “LSL” Employees of Telkomsel are entitled to receive certain cash awards or certain numbers of days leave benefits based on length of service requirements.

Actuarial gains or losses arising from experience and changes in actuarial assumptions are charged immediately to the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The obligation with respect to LSA and LSL is calculated by an independent actuary using the projected unit credit method.
