President Rodrigo Duterte on Monday commended the Presidential Communications Operations Office (PCOO) for setting up the Government Satellite Network, which allows the transmission of government videos, photos, and data to remote parts of the country and the rest of the world via advanced satellite and IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) technology.
“I was informed that satellite facilities were set up by the PCOO in certain far-flung barangays. So as of today, the residents of these communities can watch the State of the Nation and for the first time, see you on TV,” Duterte said in his third State of the Nation Address (SONA) during the joint session of the third regular session of the 17th Congress at the Batasang Pambansa.
“I hope you have enjoyed the experience,” he added, drawing applause from the audience.
Under the PCOO’s GSN project, set-top boxes or satellite receivers are also being set up in government agencies, particularly the government media under PCOO, such as Radyo Pilipinas and PTV.
PCOO Secretary Martin Andanar had said barangay officials will not only be able to watch the President’s speeches and other government activities but they can talk to the Chief Executive through the GSN project.
He said the GSN is another platform to boost the government’s efforts to inform even the remote barangays about the government’s policies, plans and programs.
Radio Television Malacañang (RTVM) will serve as the main hub of the government channel that would operate 24/7. (PNA)
