PLDT Introduces the Next Generation of Fiber, Starts Roll Out of Ultra-Fast Gigabit Fiber Plans

     PLDT Home is again breaking new ground in Philippine broadband with the launch of its ultra-fast Gigabit Fiber Plans which will provide Filipinos with the fastest, most reliable internet available today. Prior to this, PLDT Home was also the first to introduce the then-unprecedented speeds of up to 1 Gbps, giving Filipinos a glimpse of the wonders of the Gigabit Era of the internet. With the new Gigabit Fiber Plans, Filipinos will now have access to internet speeds of up to an astounding 10 Gbps.

     “We are proud to usher the Filipino into the Gigabit Era,” said Jeremiah de la Cruz, Senior Vice-President and Head of Consumer Business Home. “Our commitment is to be at the forefront of digital innovations, blazing the trail to give our countrymen the technologies which will open doors to meaningful opportunities that will make their lives better. We exemplify that today by pioneering the next generation of Fiber which allows PLDT Home to deliver Gigabit-speeds straight to the Home.”

     Living in a fast-paced world, we want to do things in an instant. It saves time and energy for us, especially if we are always in the "so little time, so much to do" mantra. For a busy self-employed and small business owner like me, time is essential. I have a daily routine that is systematically based on time. I follow a strict schedule from day until night. I value time so much that's why I cannot afford to waste a single minute, especially on work or business-related matters.

     One of the things that I like about the word "instant" is how it helps things or services get done fast! These things or services make life convenient mostly for small business owners like me. I'm the one who is in charge of the back-office tasks. That's why buying stocks and sending money to suppliers is a must. I'm also the one who is assigned to pay monthly utility bills and I'm happy to say that M Lhuillier’s Kwarta Padala is one of my partners in facilitating business transactions. ML Kwarta Padala demonstrates M Lhuillier’s brand promise of efficiency and reliability. More details about ML Kwarta Padala after the jump!

     When I was in grade school, I always saw my mom wear gold accessories during special occasions. I am still not aware that gold jewelry and diamond pieces are not just accessories to complement an outfit, they are good investments. These timeless pieces especially with fine and rare gemstones, have a high resale value and usually do not lose value. That is why growing up, I saw how my mother valued her gold jewelry. If she has extra money to spend, she makes sure that it will be for a piece of gold jewelry that will go into her collection. One time I asked her what she would do with it 10 years from now and the only answer I got was that it would be handed down to us and kept for future use.

     If my memory serves me right, she is getting her source from a close family friend. During that time, only a few establishments offered high-quality genuine jewelry. That's why knowledge and trust are important before shelling out ten or thousands of pesos to buy gold and diamonds. It is important to know the type of jewelry, where it came from, and other details about the piece that you are going to buy just to make sure you are getting the real ones. Fast forward to today, now I understand why she keeps on saving her hard-earned money to buy gold and diamond pieces. Jewelries are timeless investments you can give to yourself or your loved one. Do you want to invest in gold and diamond jewelry? You are in luck because I discovered that M Lhuillier has a store for exquisite and fine jewelry. Click read more to find out.
