Faster and cheaper internet access for progress
Rizal Philippines
October 17, 2015
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
Internet in the Philippines is 2nd to the slowest in Asia only, only ahead of Afghanistan, and one of the most expensive?!.While our neighbors have internet speed exceeding 100 mbps, our internet, like our EDSA traffic, is painfully slow? Why? Let us campaign and complain to legislators, LGU leaders and NTC. They have a mandate to give citizens to better IT technology.Are the regulators regulating? Are the telcos and the regulators on friendly terms?
Faster and Cheaper Internet
