The Telecommunications office, an attached agency of the Department of
Transportation and Communications (DOTC), continues to suffer from overstaffing
despite the obsolescence of the telegraph business.

Joaquin Obieta, DTOC assistant secretary and Telof chief, said yesterday that
they currently have 5,661 people all over the country, mostly handling the
1,665 telegraph stations owned by the government.

"Some of our stations, particularly in far-flung municipalities, have to go
because they are not generating revenues.

The Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC) is losing millions
of pesos from the maintenance and operations of public calling offices (PCOs)
installed in various parts of the country.

Rough estimates showed that in 1998 alone, the DOTC, through its attached
agency, the Telecommunications Office (Telof), already suffered a net loss of
almost P40 million.

The 673 PCOs were put up by another DOTC attached agency, the Municipal
Telephone Project Office (MTPO) which has been in existence for almost 10 years
now.

However, the facilities deteriorated to low level
