[Title] => Telecoms clearing house not needed
[Summary] => Let us first of all get one thing straight. The telecoms clearing house proposed by businessman Pacifico Marcelo, is not necessary. There is no technical justification for it. Telecoms companies can just as easily interconnect with each other without help from a "clearing house." After Manny Pangilinan took over PLDT, interconnection problems have been largely cleared.
