The Philippine authority thinks that registering every SIM card would lessen the terrorist attacks in the country. This is the proposal of National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) after the bus bombing incident in Makati last January 25, 2011. Police said that the bomb was remotely detonated with a SIM card that killed 5 people. With the registration of SIM, consumers will be required to provide identification cards and their personal information to telecommunication providers. This plan had already raised an issue on the privacy of every Filipino citizen but if this is a way to protect the country from terrorism, then it should be implemented before it’s too late.
