PINURI ni House Committee on Information Communications and Technology Chair at Navotas Representative Toby Tiangco si President Bongbong Marcos sa kanyang pangako sa ICT-driven development at program-delivery initiatives.
“I’m very happy that our President has included improved connectivity, expanded access to internet, cybersecurity, and streamlining digital technology in his SONA yesterday. This clearly underscores the value of technology in our country’s development goals,” saad ni Tiangco.
Sa kanyang ikatlong State of the Nation Address, tinukoy ni President Marcos ang Information Technology bilang sa isa sa mga pangunahing haligi ng kanyang administration, at itinampok ang mga pagsisikap na palakasin ang digital infrastructure ng bansa.
Pinasalamatan ni Tiangco ang pangulo sa mga pasisikap na palawikin ang access sa Free Public Wi-Fi program ng gobyerno, pagtaas ng pondo at public-private partnerships sa pagpapabuti ng imprastraktura at koneksyon na may kaugnayan sa ICT, pag-streamline ng digital technology sa national education initiatives, cybercrime prevention, at ICT-enabled services gaya ng ipinatupad kamakailan na E-gates sa mga paliparan.
“We heard throughout the President’s SONA how invaluable ICT is in crucial initiatives such as education, job generation, connectivity, disaster response, crime prevention, information management, and even delivery of services to Filipinos,” ani Tiangco.
“I welcome President Bongbong’s statement on digitalization and solar-powered technology becoming standard features in schools and classrooms as this will ensure our children will be properly prepared for jobs of the future. The government’s Free Public Wi-Fi program, along with the commitment to allocate resources for more digital tools such as computers, Smart TVs and digital notebooks, will ensure digitally-enabled learning environments that can develop highly-skilled and competitive Filipino graduates,” dagdag niya.
Iginiit ng Navotas solon ang halaga ng Pangulo na nagbibigay diin sa pangangailangan ng National Cybersecurity Plan at isang matibay na pangako na palakasin sa cyberdefense programs.
Aniya, bilang chair ng the House Committee on Information Communications and Technology, isusulong niya ang mga hakbang na kailangan para matiyak ang epektibong plano ng pangulo.
“Information and communications technology cuts across many aspects in society. With the President’s strong commitment to focus on ICT development and digital transformation, the government is taking the right steps in harnessing its potential towards improving government services and delivery, and subsequently improving the lives of Filipinos,” pahayag ni Tiangco.
“Digital transformation was a central theme in many of the President’s policy pronouncements. This transformation is crucial to effectively combat cybercrimes, which have increasingly affected numerous government services and victimized countless Filipinos,” sabi pa niya.
