100Mbs Internet

South Korea has been on the top of the list for having the fastest broadband internet in the world for the longest time. So, the very first thing I did when I got here was test their internet connection. The Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) has released the implementing rules and regulations (IRR) for the Konektadong Pinoy (KP) Act, a move expected to make internet services cheaper, faster, and more accessible nationwide. DICT Secretary Henry Aguda said the government is targeting at least a 40% drop in internet prices by 2026, which could boost the Philippines’ ranking in ASEAN for internet affordability. The new rules aim to simplify permits, speed up registration, and encourage more competition among internet providers, including foreign companies already planning to enter the Philippine market. Currently, basic internet plans cost ₱480 to ₱1,300, while premium packages can reach ₱10,000. Samsung is finally launching a PC version of its popular mobile browser, Samsung Internet, marking its debut on desktop starting October 30. Samsung Internet for PC will also include Galaxy AI features, such as Browsing Assist, which can summarize and translate web pages instantly.
