## 3 The Proposal  
### The Proposed Framework  
Table 4 presents a comparison between some previous works [3; 46; 47; 48] on telecommunications access frameworks and the proposed model. Compared to the preceding framework, the state of the art is the contextualization of the proposed model into quantitative indicators so that they can be measured and mapped. \begin{table}

Table 3: _Cont._In principle, the Indonesian Framework for Telecommunications Infrastructure adheres to the International Telecommunication Union's (ITU) zone-based reference [3]; however, this research replaces the term \"zone\" with \"Grid.\" In this conceptualization, each grid is a specific categorization of a district in Indonesia. Figure 6 presents the proposed Indonesian Framework for Telecommunications Infrastructure. Furthermore, Supplementary Material File S7 provides the abbreviation. Table S3 in Supplementary Material File S7 shows the abbreviation or variable definition for Figure 6 (The Proposed Indonesian Framework for Telecommunications Infrastructure). \begin{table}

The main purpose of the framework was to serve as a reference for the Indonesian government in constructing the nation's telecommunications infrastructure. In this framework, each district is categorized as either Grid #1, Grid #2, Grid #3, or Grid #4. By considering a district's assigned grid categorization, the government can take action using an approach in accordance with that grid category. As seen in Figure 6, the framework is structured with an x axis of \"telecommunications networks\" and a y axis of \"socioeconomic\" indicators.
