The Mislatel Consortium is planning to start its operations as the third major telco player in the Philippines by July 2019. "If we are able to get our CPCN by July, we will do our network rollout," Mislatel spokesperson Atty. earlier said that the government is set to award Mislatel with frequency bands of 700 MHz, 2100 MHz, 2000 MHz, 2.5 GHz, 3.3 GHz, and 3.5 GHz. Once Mislatel acquires the CPCN and frequencies, the DICT will monitor the consortium's compliance to its commitments including the promise to provide an average broadband speed of 27 Mbps covering 37.03%of the national population and investment of PHP 150 billion in capital and operational expenditure in the first year of its operations. The Mislatel Consortium is composed of Udenna Corporation, Chelsea Logistics and Infrastructure Holdings Corporation, and China Telecommunications Corporation. Two US-based satellite internet providers are expected to launch in the Philippines this year, according to the Department of Information and Communications Technology. Their entry is expected to help improve internet access in underserved areas as the government continues efforts to expand connectivity across the country.
