Hi. I am interested in learning about the locations of Cell Site Towers in the Philippines, especially in my cities of residence: Taguig and Quezon City. I would like to know about 5G and if it is being rolled out. I would also like to know how this is planned out: how locations are chosen, what approval process is required for installation and who oversees the safety requirements needed for their installation.
