📋 Tender Overview
National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) Region XI assured that they will fast track the registration of Subscriber Identity/Identification Module (SIM) cards especially in remote areas.
Engr. Rolando V. Sampaga, NTC-XI Enforcement and Operations Division chief, said that they are fast-tracking the establishment of SIM registration facilities in the geographically isolated and disadvantaged areas (GIDA).
This collaborative initiative brings together the Local Government Units (LGUs), Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) and Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT).
“We provide assistance, so customers no longer need to go to the telcos, as they are immediately coordinating with their LGU," Sampaga said during the recent press conference led by DICT-XI as part of the celebration of the Regional Information Communications Technology month at the University of Mindanao.
As the SIM registration has been extended to another 90 days or up to July 25 this year, the NCT-XI official has reminded the public to be mindful in registering their SIM cards before the deadline to avoid inconveniences.
