Konektadong Pinoy Bill to Create More Jobs, Bring Internet Costs Down

The passage of the Konektadong Pinoy Bill into law is expected to generate new employment opportunities and significantly reduce internet prices in the country, according to an industry leader. Joel Luis Dabao, former president of the Philippine Cable and Telecommunication Association (PCTA), said the Marcos administration’s target of cutting internet costs in the country by as much as 50 percent could become a reality through the measure. “There are only a handful of players in that space.
