Globe, one of the country’s biggest telcos, said in a statement that it could activate over 16 terabits per second of international bandwidth, which it noted would “satisfy the market’s hunger for faster internet services.”
According to Globe CEO Ernest Cu, Globe’s biggest hurdle is its “long-running issue over the large number of permits needed at the local government unit level and the slow pace of processing”. This is contrary to what government regulators said that there’s only 2 Tbps combined capacity available from Globe and PLDT Inc.
Globe noted that it could only use “less than” 3 Tbps, or just 19 percent of the available figure.
Cu also added that they have repeatedly called on the government to help address the said issues that are common at the local government level.
“Our biggest hurdle in delivering consistently good internet [service] is the cumbersome number of permits and right of way issues that prevent us from building the last mile connectivity that would allow world class internet services to be enjoyed by the ordinary household or any person using a mobile phone,” said Cu.
