[Title] => Gov’t may compel cellphone firms to bid for new airwaves
[Summary] => Congress should pass new legislation to compel the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) to sell to the highest bidder all new allocations of airwaves that cellular telephone operators need in order for them to meet the growing demands of their subscribers.
