What is ICT?
Information and Communication Technology is the study of the technology used to handle information and aid communication. The phrase was composed by the new National Curriculum documents for the UK in the year 2000. It is somehow, defined as the combination of Informatics technology with other, related technologies, specifically communication technology.
Information and Communications Technology - or technologies (ICT) is a broad term that covers all kinds of technologies for the manipulation and communication of information. The term is sometimes used in preference to Information Technology (IT), particularly in two communities: education and government. In the common usage it is often assumed that ICT is the same with IT; ICT in fact is any medium to record information, such as, magnetic disk/tape; optical disks (CD/DVD); and flash memory and even paper records. Other mediums are: technology for broadcasting information like radio and television. Moreover, technologies for communicating through voice and sound or images, which ranges from microphone, camera, loudspeaker, telephone to cellular phones. It also includes the wide variety of computing hardware just as Personal Computers, servers, mainframes and networked storage. The rapidly developing personal hardware market comprising mobile phones, personal devices, MP3 players, and much more are also included. The whole scope of application software from the smallest home-developed spreadsheet to the largest enterprise packages and online software services and the hardware and software needed to operate networks for transmission of information, again ranging from a home network to the largest global private networks operated by major commercial enterprises and, of course, the Internet. Thus, ICT makes more clearly developed that technologies such as broadcasting and wireless mobile telecommunications are included. http://searchcio-midmarket.techtarget.com/sDefinition/0,,sid183_gci928405,00.html

“Sa telecommunications naman, inatasan ko ang Telecommunications Commission na kumilos na tungkol sa mga sumbong na dropped calls at mga nawawalang load sa cellphone. We need to amend the Commonwealth-era Public Service Law. And we need to do it now....”
This was the very first thing I’ve found, that I think was part of ICT since it is stated above that ICT means the study of technologies regarding communication. Filipinos are born family women/men, so communication is must, especially on those families who are separated by distances. Yes, it is true; there were lots of cases such as disappearing load. Good thing, the government was able to look at it and have found solutions.

“Kung noong nakaraan, lumakas ang electronics, today we are creating wealth by developing the BPO and tourism sectors as additional engines of growth,” says PGMA.
BPO(Business Process Outsourcing) is typically categorized into back office outsourcing - which includes internal business functions such as human resources or finance and accounting, and front office outsourcing - which includes customer-related services such as contact center services.

Outsourcing is contracting with another company or person to do a particular job. This means that a certain employee or personnel will do very good in his assigned job, since he/she is assigned due to his skill. The personnel’s focus will remain only in his job and is not under the management of any corporation or company.

“In 2001, I said we would finance fully automated elections. We got it, thanks to Congress....”
Automated election will be great help for the Filipino people, especially those who doesn’t know how to read and write. With this automation, numbers of voters will increase and we are very much hoping for a cleaner election and a faster result.
