Akamai Internet report
Planning a country hopping where you can play your online games without lag and download movies in a blazing speed? You probably need to check out South Korea, as it ranks 1st as having the fastest internet connectivity.

Poor Philippines, we only ranked 103rd at an average speed of 1.1 Mbps. To add the dismay, some of the Internet Service Providers now introduce data capping limiting user data transfers in a day, one good example is Globe Telecom's 3 Gigabytes per day.

Philippines heeds huge international players to come and compete with our local players. this will make the competition stiff forcing local ISPs to improve their service.

ABOUT US! Online Filipino Workers' Blog or OFW Speak is a hub design to give aspiring Filipino Workers succeed with their online career. It can be a reference of materials for you to learn.

 

As an online worker, it is a privilege to bring back to the community what I had learned from it. It took me 2 years to fully master my craft as a web developer without any formal education. What I got is passion and willingness to learn.

We may not fully attend your needs as an online worker but we are sure that we wille xtend the best of our efforts to share whatever knowledge we have gained from years of experience.
