One peso is way too much to pay for every text message you send, neophyte Sen. Ma. Imelda Josefa “Imee” R. Marcos said yesterday.
Thus, Imee filed Senate Resolution 6 strongly urging the Department of Information and Communications Technology to immediately reduce and set a strict one-centavo price ceiling on the “exorbitant” cost of text messages.
Imee said there should be a balance in business interests of the country’s telecommunications providers and make sure that they abide by the global trend towards cheaper and faster services to the public.
Although the recent entry of third telecommunications provider Dito Telecommunity is likely to lower customer fees charged by industry rivals Smart and Globe, Imee said that the public should already enjoy lower charges, particularly on the short message service or text messages.
“Even if text messages cost only one centavo each, the three telco providers would still be able to profit from that,” she said. (Mario Casayuran)
