DOST already has broadband Network - ZTE NBN scandal

Before the ZTE proposal, DOST already proposed to NEDA same kind of project which they turned down. PREGINET is a project lead by ASTI-DOST that we use and support right now. Below is a feed from GMA news:




The network allows partners to do collaborative research and development and provides a platform for experimentation of innovative Internet applications/services, efficiently transmit and receive large amounts of data nationwide, and integrates some existing government information networks into a common network backbone via international research networks such as APAN and AI3 (Japan). Last mile connections will depend on telcos, this is where the ZTE NBN proposal will come-in, or the turned-down proposal should have.
