    NA “PANTAY NA LABAN PARA SA
    LAHAT LANG NG MAYAYAMAN” ???

    TOTOO BA YUN ???

    kaya naman pala mag provide ng mabilis na internet, INIIPIT LANG NILA . . sinasadya. . .may capability naman pala sila mag provide ng ganon kabilis, bat hindi pa ginawa dati?? -_- nagpapataas lang ng presyo sila, tapos pag mabilis na connections, mas mahal babayaran . . tapos pag may mga bisita ang Pilipinas ipagyayabang nila na mabilis internet. . tapos mga subscribers, mababagal . . . .BAKA icharge pa nila yan sa mga subscribers huh .. .

    • Asa Ka Pa !!! says:

      Sa PLDT ang mabilis na internet service ay para lang sa mga MAYAYAMAN !!!

      Mayaman ka ba?

      Kung poor ka… ASA KA PA !!!

      PLDT SUCKS BIGTIME…

  7. BIKTIMA KAMI LAHAT NG SUN CELLULAR says:

    HAYyyy NAKUuuu …

    THIS IS THE ESSENCE OF PNOY’S & MAR ROXAS’ “TUWID NA DAAN” :

    FOR THE RICH :
    – EXCLUSIVE, FAST & PATROLLED APEC LANES IN EDSA
    – EXCLUSIVE, SUPER FAST & SECURED 8.5 GBPS INTERNET ACCESS
    – PHP 10 BILLION BUDGET SOURCED FROM THE POOR FILIPINOS’ MONEY
    – 5-STAR HOTEL ACCOMMODATIONS FOR ALL FOREIGN GUESTS & VISITORS
    – 5-STAR LEVEL SUMPTUOUS MEALS FOR ALL THE FOREIGN GUESTS & VISITORS

    FOR THE POOR :
    – SECONDARY, NARROW, SLOW & TRAFFIC PLAGUED ROUTES IN EDSA
    – DIAL-UP-LIKE SUPER SLOW 256 KBPS INTERNET CONNECTIONS
    – BELOW HUMANE LEVEL SALARY STANDARDIZATION LAW FOR THE PH GOVERNMENT WORKERS
    – INHUMANE FILTHY BUNKHOUSES FOR THE YOLANDA VICTIMS THE LAST 2-YEARS
    – ANIMAL-FEED-LIKE FOOD FOR THE TYPHOON DISASTER EVACUEES

    IS THE ABOVE THE REAL ESSENCE & MEANING OF THE “TUWID NA DAAN”?

    DO WE STILL NEED ANY FURTHER PROOF OF WHAT PNOY & MAR ROXAS REALLY ASPIRE & OFFER FOR THE PH PEOPLE ???

    LET US ALL RETHINK OUR OWN CHOICES FOR THE 2016 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS.

    WHAT WE SEE & HEAR FROM THE TV CAMPAIGN ADVERTISEMENTS ARE NOT TRUE.

    THESE COMMERCIALS ARE JUST MEANT TO DECEIVE THE VOTES OF THE POOR & TO SERVE THE AMBITIONS OF THE RICH.

    NO WONDER THEY ARE CALLED “PAID ADVERTISEMENTS” !!!

    HAVE YOU GIVEN THIS THING A CLOSE & DEEPER THOUGHT ???

    ITS ALL ABOUT THE MONEY, MONEY, MONEY & MORE MONEY…

    THESE RICH CANDIDATES HAVE STOLEN BIG FROM THE POOR, JUST TO USE THEIR LOOT TO FURTHER DECEIVE THE POOR & MAKE THEM SUFFER MORE & BE SUPER DEPENDENT ON THE RICH…
    AND THEN, THEY ARE ALL DEAD…

    A NEVER ENDING CYCLE…

    AND ALL THE WHILE, THE FILTHY RICH GETS EVEN RICHER AT THE EXPENSE OF THE GREATER POOR PH PEOPLE, ALL OVER AGAIN…

    DO WE STILL NEED ANY MORE PROOF OF WHAT THE “TUWID NA DAAN” REALLY MEAN & WHAT IT IS GIVING TO US FILIPINOS.

    HAYyyy NAKUuuu

    UTANG NA LOOB !!!

    MAG-ISIP ISIP TAYO SA PAGBOTO

    KAPAG MAY NAGLALAGAY, KUHANIN ANG PERA…

    PERO IBOTO ANG TAMA !!!

    DI BA ???

    HAYyyy NAKUuuu…

    It’s more “Papogi” in the Philippines.

  9. Anonymous says:

    Just like what the government is doing on EDSA. There is a priority APEC lane and those for the general public. The APEC delegates are given faster access while the public gets affected and gets slower access. The same will happen to existing PLDT internet subscribers.

  10. Easy E says:

    Pabibo. Pasikat.

  11. NotaSheep says:

    No wonder my connection is so slow, F*CKING BASTARDS!

  12. BIKTIMA KAMI LAHAT NG SUN CELLULAR says:

    HAYyy NAKUuu… !!! parang onyok lang

    AS ALWAYS, PLDT WILL AGAIN DEPRIVED THE POOR & THE COMMON SUBSCRIBERS THE SERVICE THAT THEY HAVE ALREADY PAID FOR & INSTEAD PRIORITIZE THE RICH.

    JUST THE SAME OLD STORY OF PLDT STEALING FROM THE POOR & GIVING INSTEAD TO THE RICH.

    WHAT’S NEW GUYS?

    IS THIS PNOY’S & MAR ROXAS’ TUWID NA DAAN?

    WE THINK THIS IS INSTEAD THE NOW FAMOUS – “TWERK NA DAAN” !!!

    HAYYY NAKUUU… !!!

  13. pong says:

    8.5gbps pero may cap ng 1 gig a day lol jk

  14. hee hee says:

    Hindi po yan libre galing sa PLDT. Ang laki po ng binayad ng office of the president para dyan at sa ibang APEC events sa ibang lugar sa bansa. Andun din si Globe nagpoprovide kasama sa binayaran ng gobyerno ng ilang daang milyon. Btw, it’s not the same FTTH technology that is being used for these services.

    • Arnel Pangy Dela Cruz says:

      Gobyerno? E di mga tax payers

    • xy says:

      nagbabayad din naman subscribers pero kakarampot na speed lang binibigay taz eto 8.5Gbps, kaya naman pala mabilis na service bat di nila magawa sa publiko na tumatangkilik sa kanila.

  15. Cha Espiritu says:

    they will get the boost from other users. Poor thinking PLDT. .LOSERS!

  16. John Nieurzyla says:

    I wonder how many are getting cut off so they can provide this service.

    • Justin says:

      I think none of the subscribers will be negatively affected, PLDT has evaluated it before they roll-out that connection for APEC. 8.5Gbps is just nothing to be worried of, the capacity of their network is way bigger than that.

      They can offer to their enterprise client a 10Gbps of leased fiber line through i-Gate. And they can support multiple clients that will get 10Gbps connection.

    • DG says:

      sabi niya iniisip niya kung ilang customer ba naputulan ng internet connection para lang maibigay lang yung ganyang bilis sa apec.

      HA??
