                    [Title] => Digitel allots $180M for mobile phone expansion
                    [Summary] => The Gokongwei-owned Digital Telecommunications Philippines Inc. (Digitel) has earmarked $180 million within the next 18 months for the continued expansion of its wireless telephone network.


In an interview with reporters, JG Summit Holdings Inc. president Lance Gokongwei said Digitel plans to install 200 cell sites in the next two years to improve its cellular coverage and to compete head-on with industry leaders Globe Telecoms and Smart Communications.

The funding may come from the firm’s planned issuance of $200 million worth of convertible bonds.
