Pinasisimplehan ni House Speaker Martin Romualdez sa Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT), National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) at telcos ang proseso ng SIM registration.
Aniya ngayon pinalawig ang pagpaparehistro ng SIM cards ay gawing mas convenient at mabilis ang registration upang matiyak na mairehistro ang lahat ng lehitimong mobile users.
“Let us help millions of Filipinos who have mobile phones, but who still have not registered their SIMs as required by law, to register. Let us make it easier for them to take advantage of the 90-day registration extension granted by President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.,” ani Romualdez.
Hiling din nito sa mga telco at Department of Migrant Workers at Department of Foreign Affairs na tulungan ang pamilya ng mga OFW sa pagpaparehistro upang matiyak na hindi mapuputol ang linya ng kanilang komunikasyon.
Marahil ay marami aniya sa kanila ang nasa probinsya at hirap sa pagpaparehistro o kaya’y hindi alam na kailangan magpa-register.
“…let us assist overseas Filipino workers and their families to register. Their mobile phones are their principal means of communicating and connecting to each other. The thought that they could instantly make audio-video calls eases the pain of being thousands of miles away from home and from their loved ones. I suspect that OFW families in the provinces are finding it difficult to comply with the registration requirement. Some may even be unaware of it,” dagdag ng House leader. | ulat ni Kathleen Jean Forbes
