Arroyo announces lower charges on SMS

MANILA, Philippines -- In an announcement that is expected to delight millions of texters all over the country, President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo has announced that telecommunication networks have lowered their charge for short message service (SMS) to P.50 from P1.

In her State of the Nation Address Monday, the President said telecommunications firms have responded to her call to lower their SMS charges.

"Texting is a way of life. I asked the telecoms to cut the cost messages between networks. They have responded. It's now down to 50 centavos," Arroyo said.

The Department of Transportation and Communication (DOTC) has asked the telecommunication firms to make their SMS free, but they did not agree.

The Philippines is said to be the text capital of the world. Filipinos send and receive about a billion messages daily.

This figure is more than the total daily text messages sent in the US and Europe combined.

Arguments over grammar and style are often as fierce as those over IBM versus Mac, and as fruitless as Coke versus Pepsi and boxers versus briefs.

Decieving tactics man ni. In times of Fuel hike, price hike, rice hike, mao pa gyud ni ang gi una ug atiman sa gobyerno, and with too much publicity infact it is only P0.50.

It is just purely wasting her time. This only means that the telecommunication department is not fuctioning, no authority and not doing thier jobs. The president should not be involved in such things, she has huge tasks to tackle like our economy, Sabah claim, illegal inhabitants at Spratly's islands, corruption, billions of foreign loans, etc.

There are more important things to do, rather than polishing her image.

If Bill Gates happen to drop a thousand bucks, whould he dare pick it up. No, his time is worth more than that amount.
