PLDT’s Pangilinan balks at frequency reallocation

THE Department of Information and Communications Technology’s (DICT) plan to redistribute frequencies to make the allocation of the telecommunications spectrum more equitable is a “serious matter of public interest,” PLDT Inc. chairman Manny V. Pangilinan said.

Pangilinan told reporters last week that the telecommunication assets PLDT acquired from San Miguel Corp. (SMC) had been used to improve internet services in the country.
