Citizen rights group CitizenWatch Philippines urged the national government to allocate additional funding for broadband infrastructure to boost the country’s internet connectivity.In a statement, the CWP said the larger budget may be used for the installation of fiber-optic networks, the deployment of 5G technology, and the enhancement of last-mile connectivity for communities without internet access.
