| Message | "Free-market ensures the competition needed to improve service quality and naturally regulates what's to be considered accessible and affordable prices. Government intermission in such affairs will cause mayhem in the sector and damage this so fruitful branch of our economy. At most, government subsides for low-supply areas would be acceptable. However, we will not support the bill as of now." Marcos Serra, President of the PSDT |
