Globe Telecom Inc labeled as insufficient the recent Internet Protocol (IP) peering of the Philippines’ dominant carrier PLDT with the government’s Philippine Open Internet Exchange (PHOPenIX), and has called upon an “all-inclusive” arrangement among major internet services to boost local Internet speed.

The deal, instead, will only allow PLDT clients to peer directly with government websites through the PHOpenIX.
