flag Former BTL workers demand unpaid severance be paid before $80M Speednet-SMART deal proceeds, as unions oppose the acquisition without transparency.

flag Former BTL employees, backed by the BCWJ, are demanding unpaid severance be settled before the proposed $80 million acquisition of Speednet-SMART by BTL moves forward, citing decades of service and BTL’s acknowledgment of outstanding payments. flag The NTUCB opposes the deal, criticizing the lack of public consultation, regulatory clarity, and due diligence, and has vowed legal and advocacy actions if the government proceeds without transparency. flag While 79% of 327 surveyed BTL employees supported the acquisition, only about 53% of the workforce participated, and the BCWU has not issued an official stance. flag The Public Utilities Commission has declined to meet with the NTUCB, intensifying concerns over oversight and accountability in the telecom sector.
