PLDT wireless unit Smart Communications Inc. (Smart) and Clark Development Corp. (CDC) have signed lease agreements covering telco facilities inside CDC, to continue serving its customers in the area.
This agreement with CDC also enables the fast and efficient rollout of PLDT and Smart’s integrated fixed and wireless networks.
“We at Smart are always ready to work hand-in-hand with partners like the CDC in ensuring that we are able to serve our customers through fast and efficient rollout of our network particularly in areas where new communities are being built, and that we are also able to continuously support the government’s nationwide digitalization thrust to narrow the digital divide,” said Pamela Felizarta, Smart head of joint strategic operations.
As of June, PLDT Group has further expanded its total fiber footprint to over 1.1 million kilometers, consisting of over 231,000 kilometers of international fiber and over 885,000 kilometers of domestic fiber.
