The Department of Information and Communications Technology-Mindanao Cluster 1 activates new free Wi-Fi hotspots in the remote provinces of Sulu and Tawi-Tawi. This is the first time that locations in Sulu were connected to the program. As of March 3, the DICT has launched 8,145 sites in various national government agencies, hospitals, public schools, state universities and colleges, airports and terminals, and other public places nationwide. DICT Secretary Gregorio Honasan II says the agency’s priority is to establish free Wi-Fi sites in as many public offices and areas in the country as possible.
