Pandemic, typhoons, volcano – no stopping DITO’s record greenfield rollout
- Thursday | 24th June, 2021
It recently became a reality in the Philippines as a new telco, DITO Telecommunity, went from drawing board to launch in 18 months. This against the backdrop of remote working due to the pandemic, typhoons and the small matter of a volcano erupting in one of the rollout areas. As attorney Adel Tamano, Chief Administration Officer, says, “while we definitely wanted to revolutionise telecoms in the region, the fact is that competition brings better prices, better services and a better community. But, with the team we put together, we achieved it in 18 months.”A key player in the DITO team was ZTE. As far as greenfield telco stories go, it was (and still is) an ambitious project and DITO, the new Telecommunity for the Philippines, has shown what an experienced team can achieve.
