Sen. Grace Poe urged the government today to launch initiatives that would stem brain drain in the telecommunications industry as it is depriving Filipinos quality and efficient telecommunications (telco) services.

Poe, chairwoman of the Senate Committee on Public Services, said the Philippines now seem to be lacking technical manpower as more local Information Technology experts have chosen to leave the Philippines for more stable jobs abroad.

“Nagkukulang din tayo ng tao, kahit na ang mga magagaling dito na technical persons natin sobra rin silang nahihirapan sa dami ng nangangailangan sa kanila ,” the lawmaker noted.Poe said local businesses should open up quality opportunities to Filipinos, so they would not be forced to work abroad.“Importante sana na magdagdag ng sapat na trabaho dito sa atin. Magbukas pa sana ng puwesto kasi kulang sila ng technical na tao ,” she said.

Poe said she will ask telcos to report on their compliance to the government’s directive to accelerate the building of cell towers, especially in far-flung areas, tomorrow.
