    2. Subsidized ng govt ang internet sa countries na yan. Dito tayo pa nagsubsidize sa pag aaral ng mga anak ng govt officials

    3. mdalas manalo ang philippines sa online dahil hindi naman yun kumakain ng malaking bytes pra bumagal ang computer/cp ng isang tao. isip isip din ha... try mong mag youtube or watch ng online streaming para malaman mo ang bilis ng internet mo and to know better try to download speedtest application para malaman mo bilis ng internet mo.

  2. Blame the two major ISP... Matagal na kaya yan! from their servers, cable lines, policies, and connection stability... Yeah, we are paying like a 1st world country in terms of rate but the connection speed is worst than 3rd world...

    1. wala sa ISP yan nsa mga telecommunications company yan. remember binaba nila ang speed ng internet and nagstart yan January 2014. Im using S4 since last year pero mabilis naman pati downloading, pero nung Jan na bumagal at nakakaasar ang service nila.

  8. Dapat kasi madaming ka competition ang mga internet providers dito sa pinas hindi dalawa o tatlo lang,tsaka dapat busisiin ito ng NTC.Lagi lang silang natutulog sa kangkungan.

  9. Dito po sa SG, we pay only around an equivalent of Php1300 monthly, and we get:

    - 200 Mbps Fiber connection. Yes, 200.
    - Mobile broadband SIM card (capped 1GB monthly)
    - free telephone line (buy your own telephone set)
    - Free modem.
    - Free router.

    Meron pa nga isang ISP dito nag-promo: 1 Gbps for only $49. equivalent to ~ Php1715 lang! Imba!!!

  10. In singapore theyre getting 25mb for about 1350 pesos a month. Hopeless na ang pilipinas ang tagal na na problema yan. May mabilis pero sobrang mahal naman. Dagdagan pa ang Fair Usage Policy nila. I remeber calling the operater and she explained na kaya daw humin ang connection dahil na accumulate na ang Unliplan dahil sa fair usage policy. Kaloka meron bang Unlimited surf plan na ma-aacumulate?

  11. yung 3mbps na yan minsan nagiging 1mbps dahil sa fair usage policy. minsan kakabukas mo pa lang ng internet mo for the day tapos naka-FUP ka na. sayang ang 1,000php

  12. Have you considered the geographical location of our country? Don't compare us to US na isang malaking lupa. Napapalibutan tayo ng tubig and mas mahal ang bayad sa ganun.

  14. dapat ito ang magandang usapin sa senado. unang una importate ang internet connection nowadays. may mga work at home at kung mabagal ang internet bagsak ang service level ng trabahador. my pinsan is for final interview in abroad sa skype. and dahil mahina ang internet connection, di sya na-interview ng maayos, ang tendency di sya natanggap.
    grabe talaga ang pahirap ng internet connection. kung kayang ibigay ng singapore ang 63mbps bakit hindi kaya ng pinas? hindi din nman lugi ang mga telecommunications dito, unang una hindi naman yan gas/water/electricity na kapag sinayang or ginamit mo ng sobra eh mauubos. fair policy kuno, PWE!!! unfair policy ang tawag dun at panggugulang sa kapwa. kesyo unlimited internet daw, pero limited ang bytes na ibibigay nila.

    Mabibilis ang mga hinayupak sa singilan sa mga subscribers, pero pagdating sa serbisyo mababagal. asan ang FAIRNESS???

  19. Philippines has the slowest internet connection. I took a video performing a speedtest and I'm sure nothing can beat this, when you talk about slowest internet connection. I have been complaining this to the ISP since November 2012 and no action has been taken.
