Syjuco said that with a faster internet, the country will be able to attract more BPO companies to do business here in the Philippines and thereby adding an estimate of 1.3 Billion job opportunities in this sector alone or a 45 Billion USD additional income for the country.

"To prioritized this advocacy for us to attract more foreign investors and create more opportunities for Filipinos," said Syjuco. 

A former lawmaker has declared his intention to run for president in the 2016 elections, to run for president of this country because he have so much to share— of knowledge, experience and wisdom.
