Indonesian ride-hailing and payments firm Gojek launched a video streaming service featuring original movies and TV shows on Thursday, as the firm makes a big push into online content in Southeast Asia’s largest economy, its entertainment chief said.
“We see that there’s a gap where people want to watch Indonesian high-quality content, but where the only choice to see it is to go to the cinema,” Gojek Entertainment Group Chief Executive Edy Sulistyo told Reuters in an interview.
