 Several International companies dub the Philippines as the “ICT Hub of Asia”. It is no
secret that there is a huge growth of ICT-related jobs around the country, one of which is
the call center or BPO (Business Process Outsourcing) centers.

 According to the 2013 edition of Measuring the Information Society by the International
Telecommunication Union, there are 106.8cellphones per 100 Filipinos in the year 2012. That
would be mean, for every 100 Filipinos you meet, there is a high chance that they have a
cellphone and approximately for the seven of them, they have two.

 In a data gathered by the Annual Survey Philippines Business and Industries and NSO in 2010, the Act industry shares
19.3% of the total employment population here in the Philippines.
 To add to these statistics, Time Magazine’s “The selfish Cities
around the World” of 2013 places, two cities from the Philippines in
the top 1 and top 10 spots. The study was conducted using
Instagram, a popular photo sharing application.

 With these numbers, there is no doubt that the Philippines is one of

the countries that benefit most us of ICT.
