4. Company Descriptions and Business Development
Notes
1. Related companies: MPI, MER
2. Stiff competition is expected
    ● The Philippines government wants the third telco player besides TEL and GLO.
    ● TransCo (country’s power transmission asset owner) wants to join using their nationwide fiber-optic infra.
3. Sold remaining Beacon Electric Asset Holdings Incorporated stake to MPIC in 2017.
    ● MPIC (Metro Pacific Investment Corp.) is the sister company of PLDT.
    ● Beacon holds 35% interest in Meralco (Manila Electric Company) and 56% interest in Global Business Power Corporation. MPIC holds 100% of Beacon stake.
4. Bought frequency band (700MHz) from SMC(San Miguel Corp.) together with Globe Telecom to improve speed and coverage. PCC (Philippines Competition Committee) is still trying to tackle it but the Court held it legal.
5. Setting up Cell Sites is quite difficult in some areas because of the permit/right issue.
