"We do not want that call center companies in Davao will be like some call centers in Manila na nagpa-pirate ng agents ng ibang call centers doon, the agreement will be for the harmonious relationship of the call centers here," Fournier said.
Fournier said DCCCII is working very hard to bring Davao City to the forefront in terms of information and communications technology (ICT) and the agreement is one of the chamber's efforts in order to achieve this goal.
"We will continue to push all sectors to work together, this year will be very heavy and critical for the ICT industry," Fournier said, adding that Davao City will be hosting one of the biggest events this October and this is the 6th Mindanao ICT Congress.
On Thursday, DCCCII officials, together with some officials from the regional office of the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI)-Southern Mindanao converged for a meeting regarding the initiation of the memorandum of agreement at the Marco Polo Hotel.
