Tolentino asked."Without any response from Cabarios, Tolentino said that the NTC should have the"fastest" internet connection as a regulator. Tolentino wanted to know from the NTC how broadcasting classes could be conducted on different platforms such as radio and TV, especially in far-flung areas.
