The creation of a Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) would help elevate local state of internet and usher in the country to become a digital economy.
“The Philippines is in urgent need of an agency that will drive the country’s ICT development and help steer the country to realize its full potential as a digital economy where homes, businesses and individuals have access to fast and reliable data connectivity. We are hopeful that enhancing ICT development in the country, by creating DICT, would enable more business organizations to work more efficiently, maximize productivity and contribute to sustaining the country’s economic growth,” Globe General Counsel Froilan Castelo said.
