<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">PLDT powers Namfrel for clean elections</p>

<p align=center style='text-align:center' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><i>&nbsp;</i></p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><i>MANILA, Philippines, May 7, 2004</i> &#150; The PLDT Group is backing the National
Citizens&#146; Movement for Free Elections (NAMFREL) this coming May 10 national
elections by extending the largest and most extensive corporate support with
its telecommunications facilities and services to help ensure the speedy,
secure and accurate canvassing of ballots.</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&nbsp;</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&#147;Through the years, PLDT has consistently
supported NAMFREL in its mission. Elections are held sacrosanct by
freedom-loving Filipinos and that is why it is important PLDT does its share to
ensure the impartiality and fairness of these political exercises,&#148; said
Napoleon L. Nazareno, who is President and CEO of both PLDT and Smart
Communications Inc.</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&nbsp;</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">PLDT has set up a monitoring and
coordinating center at its main office at the Ramon Cojuangco Building in
Makati City for the installation of telecommunications facilities in all of
NAMFREL&#146;s different chapters nationwide.</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&nbsp;</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">PLDT will be installing more than 200
phone lines nationwide and four E1 leased lines or high-speed data
communications links to ensure that NAMFREL can communicate easily and pass on
crucial information quickly. Prepaid PLDT Vibe Internet cards worth P300 each
will also be distributed by PLDT for free to all major sites of NAMFREL.</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&nbsp;</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">PLDT&#146;s subsidiary Smart Communications
Inc. will also have a crucial role since transmission of results for the Quick
Count will be done mainly via text messaging. All the NAMFREL volunteers using
Smart cellphones will be texting in the results of the election returns to the
quick count center at La Salle Greenhills via a designated access number. These
text messages from the volunteers will pass through the Smart hub and then
transmitted to Greenhills and a back-up site using PLDT&#146;s secure, high-speed
data facilities. Cellphone prepaid loads have also been provided to NAMFREL
volunteers.</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&nbsp;</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Smart has deployed cellsites on wheels to
augment capacity in high traffic areas. </p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&nbsp;</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Virgilio V. Hernandez, PLDT Relationship
Management Executive and a long-time coordinator for projects with NAMFREL,
said advances in technology are changing the way NAMFREL is monitoring the
elections.</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&nbsp;</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&#147;Unlike in previous elections, NAMFREL
will be employing cellular phones and the Internet aside from the usual voice
and fax communications. It will now be more efficient, faster and less prone to
miscommunication and inaccuracies,&#148; said Hernandez, who heads the operations of
PLDT&#146;s monitoring and coordinating center.</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&nbsp;</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Ramon R. Isberto, Head of Public Affairs
of Smart, said cellular phones would be the main medium of transmission of
results to the regional and national centers of NAMFREL.</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&nbsp;</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&nbsp;</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&nbsp;</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&#147;Special menus and software have already
been put in place by NAMFREL in coordination with our engineers to make
transmission and consolidation of results easier. The menus already have the
names of the candidates so that NAMFREL volunteers will just put in the
numbers,&#148; explained Isberto.</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&nbsp;</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">PLDT&#146;s monitoring and coordinating center
for its joint project with NAMFREL will ensure that all the phone lines, hot
lines, data links and Internet cards are installed and distributed according to
a predetermined schedule. Each province is being monitored as to the rate of
completion and problems encountered with installation.</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&nbsp;</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&#147;This is certainly part of PLDT&#146;s public
service,&#148; said Rene S. Meily, Special Assistant to the PLDT Chairman and
overall chair of Task Force NAMFREL. &#147;While we don&#146;t take sides with any
candidate, we definitely cannot be neutral or indifferent to the crucial role
we can play in helping our nation have clean elections.&#148;</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&nbsp;</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Manuel V. Pangilinan, PLDT Chairman,
added that elections are important events for the economic welfare of
Filipinos.</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&nbsp;</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&#147;Clean and honest elections help the
country achieve the stability needed for economic growth. PLDT&#146;s partnership
with NAMFREL is concrete proof of our commitment to serving the Filipino people
in any way we can,&#148; he said.</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&nbsp;</p>

<p style='text-align:justify' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">NAMFREL is a non-partisan voluntary
organization dedicated to ensuring clean, orderly and honest elections in the
Philippines. It was founded in 1983 and its first electoral operation was held
during the 1984 Batasan Pambansa elections. The group has already conducted 23
operations for both national and local elections, and this year will be its
10th national exercise.</p>
