If VoIP is indeed a VAS,a connection agreement with Telcos sounds absurd! Only in the Philippines! uhhh,do i have to ask permission whenever i want to send emails and chat with my friends? Can somebody explain to NTC what VoIP really means?! As a DSL subscriber, i should be given the liberty to optimize and appreciate how great the internet technology is.

This looks like a promising place to develop a new business… or even just some academic research.

Yes, that’s the model am implying. In effect you rent an access code just like you rent a regular phone line. No revenue sharing. That would certainly accelerate the development of new mobile applications.

Since its wishful thinking, why not throw in a standard interface?

Not as long as mobile VAS is tightly coupled to the carriers. Perhaps if they’d make you buy access instead of revenue sharing, then they’d consider it.

I hope the same thing can be done for short access codes.

Wishful thinking…
