SKYcable has launched a campaign dubbed as “Oplan Kontra Putol” to combat the growing number of intentional cable-cutting incidents that are disrupting internet access and cable services, affecting thousands of Filipino households nationwide.
The company, which offers cable TV and fiber internet services in different parts of the country, condemned the acts of intentional cable cutting by unscrupulous individuals seeking to profit from the illegal activity.
SKY chief operating officer Claudia Suarez said the company is actively working with various pay TV, telcos and internet service providers for a concerted effort to curb the rampant illegal cable cutting activities.
“Oplan Kontra Putol’ demonstrates our commitment to provide a reliable and uninterrupted internet connection and cable services to our SKY Kapamilyas. Rest assured that we are working closely with local government units and authorities day in and day out to prevent these incidents from happening,” said Suarez.
SKY’s head of network operations RJ Licup said that SKY is working closely with local authorities in monitoring the streets and barangays for such illegal activities.
