Converge ICT CEO Dennis Anthony Uy is calling for stronger transparency and accountability, saying good governance is essential to turn the Philippines’ digital ambitions into real economic progress.
Speaking at the 52nd PCCI Business Conference on Oct 14, Uy noted global investors are already eyeing the country — but corruption and red tape are holding the nation back. He emphasized digital advancement must go hand in hand with sound governance, welcoming recent moves like the Data Residency Framework and the new Center for AI Research. His call echoes public sentiment: the latest Pulse Asia survey released Oct 15 shows corruption and inflation remain Filipinos’ top concerns.
