Law to improve PH internet connectivity pushed

An information and communications technology expert urged lawmakers to pass legislation that would help improve internet connectivity in the country.

The Philippines' internet speeds for mobile and broadband have both improved since last year, according to Ookla - a company that provides internet testing, data, and analysis."Aside from having speed as a measure of success of improvement, we have to ask ourselves, is work from home more accessible to more people? Is online learning accessed more and more by students? Because otherwise, we cannot say we have actually improved because it is just the speed," she pointed out.

She added that all parts of the country - even rural areas - should be given enough service provider options to be able to ensure there will be better connectivity among communities.

Panayin na

The law should set a standard speed and not setting an amount to have a better speed,we pay for what we consumed and not base on what is our internet plan!!!

Much talked about, even the President has on several occassions but we’re still suffering on zoom, still missing signals in rural areas and being charged high for low quality service…

kelangan pa talaga ng law para improve ang internet? di ba dapat default yan ng mga internet companies? 🤔
