• Communities, households and individuals have fair access to ICTgoods and services available in the country, except in BARMM.
• However, there is unequal availability of ICT access to thecommunities across the country. Urban areas have more accessthan rural areas.
• Individuals engage in ICT activities across the country, in varyingfrequencies and degrees. Though, there is still a low level ofawareness and penetration of e-commerce.
CONCLUSIONS

• Given these results, the country and the government can now gaugethe level of access and usage of the country and more effectively createprograms and policies.
• The DICT can efficiently monitor existing and upcoming programs nowthat a baseline data is already available.
• Targeting of priority areas can now be done more reliably as the resultssupport regional level analysis.
• Lastly, international benchmarking to determine how the country faresrelative to others can finally be done.
RECOMMENDATIONS
95
• The NICTHS is an important and successful initiative to gatherthe necessary data on ICT.
• Regular conduct of NICTHS (every two years) is recommendedto regularly monitor the ICT access and usage of communities,households, and individuals.
RECOMMENDATIONS

• For the next NICTHS, the PSRTI recommends the following:
• To retain its nationwide coverage. However, we suggest toreview other possible sampling designs to make the surveymore economic and efficient.
• To conduct the survey still in close coordination with PSA.Aside from obtaining the survey clearance, sampling frameand design for the survey must be coordinated well.
RECOMMENDATIONS
97
• For the next NICTHS, the PSRTI recommends the following:
• To use the questionnaires used in the NICTH 2019, subject tofurther review and editing based on the recommendations ofPSRTI.
• To adopt the use of CAPI for efficient data submission andprocessing
RECOMMENDATIONS
