The race to be the first 5G-enabled nation is heating up. In the US, Verizon and AT&T have gained a small lead over their competitors, having already introduced commercial 5G services in selected cities. In the Philippines, telecommunications giants PLDT and Globe are massing their resources to start offering 5G capabilities by the second half of this year. PLDT may be on a hotter streak when it unveiled a 5G cell site in Clark Freeport Zone in November 2018.
