The government plans to collaborate with the private sector to improve internet connectivity, including potential partnerships with telecommunications companies.
In a recent briefing, Palace Press Officer Claire Castro emphasized the government’s commitment to bringing internet infrastructure to remote areas.
“Of course, hindi ganoon kadali ito lalo na sinabi mo nga liblib na lugar so kinakailangan talaga dito ng imprastraktura. Nabanggit din po na tayo ay maaaring makipag-ugnayan/makipag-collaborate sa mga pribadong korporasyon para po maisakatuparan ito,” said Castro.
She cited the importance of reliable internet to improve people’s lives.
“Nowadays, using the internet is not just a luxury – it’s a necessity. If we can improve the access of all the Filipino people to internet, it will definitely improve the livelihood—not only the livelihood, even the intellectual capacity of every Filipino,” according to her.IMT
