It was conducted by Project Consultant Mr. Dodjie P. Nava of PC Craft Computer Technologies, Inc. and was attended by 18 ICTU personnel.
An installation of a province-wide Mesh High Speed Local Network Backbone commenced on September 2018. It is expected to cater to both the province and its 20 Local Government Units wherein a dedicated and secured wireless network was established in order to facilitate faster and real-time data transmission.
Gov. Francisco Emmanuel “Pacoy” R. Ortega III assured, “I believe that we can and will achieve our dreams and aspirations by sustaining our strong partnership. The Provincial Government is the trailblazer, and the component LGUs should ride this momentum. After all, we owe it to the people whose lives depend on the outcome of our performance.” Hence, the ICTU shall support the province’s vision by enhancing and advancing ICT infrastructures.
