 CELPHONE SIM. Did you know that cellular or mobile phone SIMS (subscriber’s identification module) are now sold anywhere? There are SIM ambulant vendors (selling SIMS house-to-house) and some sidewalk vendors are now carrying stocks of SIMS for different mobile networks.

CHEAP. An Ear informer says anyone can now buy a mobile SIM for only 10 pesos. “Tinuod gyud nga ang Pinoys maoy world’s No. 1 celfone users,” our informer says. “Would you believe nga bisan mangungoykoy og basura dunay celfone?”
