A first-class city in the Visayas, Cebu City envisions to develop into a smart city, like the city-state of Singapore.
To this end, the local government unit of Cebu City has forged a partnership with PLDT Enterprise, the corporate business arm of PLDT, the leading integrated telecommunications and digital services provider in the Philippines, to expedite its thrust towards digital transformation for the benefit of its constituents and thriving business communities.
PLDT Enterprise supplies fiber broadband internet access with a robust bandwidth of 100mbps to enable seamless connectivity. Moreover, a cloud-managed access point is installed to monitor real-time alerts and ensure uninterrupted internet. To help the LGU connect with their constituents better, PLDT Enterprise played a pivotal role in powering the People’s State of the City Address, as the official connectivity sponsor of the event, bringing together the community virtually to engage and connect with the local government.
“Not only enhancing connectivity, but this initiative also empowers our citizens by providing access to vital information and social services. With PLDT Enterprise’s expertise and support, we are one step closer to realizing our vision of a smart Cebu City,” PLDT Enterprise quoted Rama as saying. Mitch Locsin, First Vice President & Head of Enterprise and International Business Groups at PLDT and Smart, expressed enthusiasm for the partnership and the growing trend of digitalization across the country.
