Only around 33 percent of Filipino households have access to fixed—or wired—internet, according to a World Bank report. If that’s accurate, then we have a big challenge ahead of us.The problem, however, is that the legislature has yet to pass the Open Access in Data Transmission Act, which seeks to reduce costs and expand access to high-quality internet services for all Filipinos, especially those in unserved and underserved areas.
The Open Access in Data Transmission Act is among the priority bills of the current administration, as identified by the Legislative-Executive Development Advisory Council. “NEDA supports the passage of the Open Access Bill, or its newest iteration, the Konektadong Pinoy Bill. This landmark legislation embodies our commitment to promoting fair competition and dismantling barriers to entry in the data transmission sector,” Director General Arsenio Balisacan said.The Joint Foreign Chambers of the Philippines has also called for the immediate passage of the proposed law, which they said will further liberalize internet access in the country.
