What they have to sayWhat they have to say
“Sector membership in the ITU-D is co-regulation in action: through the sovereign state, we can influence the direction of regulatory, policy and legal issuances affecting telecoms, while our government also gains through our expertise and the adjustment of our strategies to their policies.”
Rodolfo Salalima, senior vice president, corporate and regulatory affairs, Globe Telecom, Philippines
