TUTUTUKAN ni Department of Trade and Industry Secretary Cristina Roque ang pagpapalawak at pagpapalakas pa sa space technology.

Sa pakikipagpulong ni Roque sa SpaceX/Starlink executives sa Hawthorne, California, pinag-usapan ang pagpapalawak sa satellite broadband connectivity sa buong bansa.

Sumentro ang usapan sa progreso ng Starlink na may 100,000 subscribers at 13 ground gateway sites.

Tinalakay din ang pagpapalakas sa digital learning, e-government initiatives, at e-commerce.

“Internet connectivity is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity. With Starlink’s cutting-edge satellite technology, we can ensure that even the most geographically isolated communities in the Philippines have access to fast and reliable internet,” pahayag ni Roque.

“This is a crucial step in empowering our businesses, improving education and government services, and strengthening disaster resilience.”

Target ng SpaceX na magpadala ng unang Filipino sa space gamit ang human space flight program.

“This initiative underscores the potential for the Philippines to become a player in the global space arena,” pahayag ni Roque.

Nakausap ni Roque si Oliver Edelmann, Manager for Global Government Affairs ng SpaceX.

“We are fully committed to fostering a more business-friendly environment for tech companies like SpaceX. The Philippines is taking bold steps to modernize its digital infrastructure policies, ensuring that innovation-driven firms can thrive while delivering essential services to Filipinos,” pahayag ni Roque.
