According to Suarez, Congress did not fail to remind NTC to conduct a bidding on 3G even during the Estrada administration.
"Have they conducted a bidding and they only earned less than a billion, that would have been okay. But the problem is, why did they (NTC) not follow the law's requirement to bid out the frequencies?"
Suarez said in Filipino.
In a previous hearing, the NTC was asked to revise the fee structure for the four operators in acquiring 3G licenses.
