Philippines ICT Sector Report 2020/2021

The mobile telephony subsector is set to undergo a big change, as the current duopoly of PLDT Inc and Globe Telecom Inc will be challenged by the entry of a third player, DITO Telecommunity Corp. On the back of this development, this subsector has seen high capital investment by incumbents which will result in improved network quality, reliability and speed. While the topography of Philippines makes setting up of fixed infrastructure particularly expensive, government initiatives – coupled with the expansion plans of private sector players such as Convergence ICT – bode well for this segment, which is currently underpenetrated. The country’s biggest media group, ABS-CBN, faces the threat of closure as a result of a legal challenge on the grounds of violations allegedly capable of severely curtailing competition within the broadcasting sector.
