Business process outsourcing firm Alorica is set to open a facility in Tuguegarao City on Sept. 23, marking the entry of the first large-scale BPO employer in Region 2.
Of the 31 cities launched as part of the Digital Cities Program in June last year, nine cities -- Balanga, Batangas, General Santos, Iligan, Legazpi, Puerto Princesa, Taytay Rizal, Tuguegarao, and Zamboanga -- completed their five-year roadmaps.
The Tuguegarao City government has subscribed to Globe Business' Direct Internet which allows the local government unit (LGU) to offer its constituents fast Internet access.
