Power co-ops agree to bring Internet to the countryside
Wednesday, May 17, 2006

CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY—A fast-rising technology corporation based in Hallandale, Florida has clinched six joint venture agreements and eight memoranda of agreement with electric cooperatives in Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao for the use of “broadband over power lines” system that will connect rural folk to a wide-range of education, connectivity and information through the use of Internet, telephone, on-demand cable TV right in their households.

The formal signing was held at the Grand Caprice Convention Center last May 10 coinciding with the electric cooperatives’ national conference on power distribution, management reforms and recognition. The four-day event was attended by Albay 3rd District Rep. and House committee Chairman on appropriations Joey Salceda, former Finance secretary now Institute of Corporate Directors chairman Jesus Estanislao, presidential adviser on rural electrification Fr. Larry Silva, National Electrification Administration administrator Edita Bueno, and former National Electrification chief now Nextream chairman Gen. Pedro Dumol who joined more than 700 co-op officers from all over the country.

Signing the joint venture and memoranda of agreement were Nextream president and chief executive officer Ty Javellana who was assisted by the firm’s chief finance officer Gary Cedeño, chief technical officer Ronald Fesalbon and advisor Earl Burrows.

Among the eight electric cooperatives represented by its respective president and general manager which signed the agreements with Nextream were: Cagayan I Electric Cooperative with president Lope Mallillim and general manager Tito Lingan; Ilocos Norte Electric Co-op with president Lorenzo Rey Ruiz and general manager Romillas Pascual; Misamis Oriental Electric Co-op with president Pedrito Baculio and general manager Julie Real; Bohol I Electric Co-op with president Jeremias Boligao and general manager Carlos Itable; Tarlac I Electric Co-op with president Francisco Diza and general manager Resurrecion Coronel; Tarlac II Electric Co-op with president Orlando Masibay and general manager Amelia Tioaquen; Lanao Norte Electric Co-op with president Gregorio Tan and general manager Resnol Torres and Davao Sur Electric Co-op with president, Artemio Tajon and general manager Jesus dela Victoria. Last February, Nextream signed a joint venture agreement with the Peninsula Electric Cooperative general manager Loreto Marcelino for its maiden broadband over power lines venture that is expected to wire 120,000 consumers in the next five years.
