What the NTC, the government regulators should do about the telcos and the slow internet speed?

Faster and cheaper internet access for progress

Since internet is not a life or death situation, and we get by with it, it does not seem to be a concern of many.  However, we all ready can compile a list of things that escape the regulators.

Why do we have regulators?  We can not just depend of Adam Smith laissez faire theory that the invisible hands work for the best interest of every one.  They would work for the only interest nearest to them - their pockets and bank accounts.  This happened to a dominant telco then,  under the old owner, and we could say the same for the new owners who have been raking in billions. (what is the limit of the self interest)  Some unusual practices that defy regulators must be all ready tbe investigated fined, punished and strictly regulated.

1. Slow internet speed;

2.  Expensive charges

3.  Refusal to peering talks

4.  Talk about whitelisting of actual internet speed vs speed test.

Is the good young senator, who still have to hone his execution skills and courage to go vs the giants up to the task?

Some years have passed and nothing seem to have been accomplished with his investigation of this internet anomaly
