00:00 No more extensions to the already extended deadline, a point DICT Secretary Ivan Januy made clear on the July 25, Tuesday, next week's hard and absolute deadline for registering mobile SIM cards.
00:13 Approximately 103 million SIM cards have been officially enrolled or signed up and fall within the DICT's target threshold.
00:21 DICT records show that before the extension kicked off, some 20.3 million SIM cards were registered and with the extension period having worked beautifully according to expectations, the DICT is pleased and sees no more reason to prolong a new registration.
00:42 We have noticed also an increase in the shift of these scammers to other platforms in order to pursue their scams. So I need to warn the public to be more vigilant.
00:54 Because scammers don't have any resources. They use everything to deceive.
