DITO Telecom internet rates | FALSE
On Facebook recently, an infographic showing the alleged internet rates of DITO Telecom offering lower rates than its competitors was recently reported to be FALSE.
According to a report published on September 09, by VeraFiles.org, the infographic circulating on Facebook was verified to be untrue.
According to the report, Tessa Razon-Artadi, marketing and communications head of Udenna Corp., which is one of the three companies that form the DITO consortium, told verafiles.org that “Those rates didn’t come from us,” Tessa Razon-Artadi said. “What we can assure you is that when DITO does the commercial launch in 1Q2021, we shall be offering our customers a very compelling value proposition,” Razon-Artadi added.

President Duterte to be the 1st recipient of Covid19 vaccine from Russia
In a virtual press briefing, Philippine president Rodrigo Duterte said president Duterte said pertaining to Russia as the country offered the Philippines its vaccines for Covid19.
Russian Ambassador to the Philippines Igor Khovaev assured the Philippines that Moscow is ready to supply Manila and even invest in the local production of the vaccine.
Khovaev said after the completion of all the bureaucratic procedures by mid-August, Russia will be ready to prepare for launching what he described as an “effective and safe” COVID-19 vaccine.
Russia is one of the few countries that expressed readiness to supply the Philippines with the COVID-19 vaccine once mass production in Moscow starts.
China also assured that it will prioritize the Philippines should the COVID-19 vaccine be made available for commercial use and distribution.
Meanwhile, President Duterte on said, “Pagdating ng bakuna, in public, para walang satsat diyan magpa-injection ako. Ako yung maunang maeksperimentuhan. Okay para sa akin (When the vaccine arrives i will have the public witness my vaccination so people won’t say anything, I’ll agree to be injected. I’ll be the first to be experimented on. It’s fine with me),” he said.
He said he wanted to show Putin that he has full trust in Russia’s scientific studies and believes that the vaccine produced is “good for humanity.”
“Para ipakita ko sa kanila na tiwala ako at hindi sila nagkamali mag-offer ako pagdating, yung doctor nila o doctor natin, ako ang unang magpabakuna (To show them that I trust them and they didn’t make the mistake of offering us a vaccine, I will be the first to be injected with the vaccine),” he said.
If the vaccine can be administered to him, Duterte said it could most likely be administered to everyone.
“Tingnan natin kung puwede ba. Kung puwede sa akin, puwede sa lahat. Ngayon, kung hindi puwede sa akin, ‘yan nga yung problema (Let’s see if it’s recommended for me. If it’s okay for me, it’s recommended for everybody. Now, if it’s not recommended, that’s the problem),” Duterte said.
