Utility giant Manila Electric Company tapped the Anti-Red Tape Authority to participate in automating business permit and licensing systems in local government units.
Meralco announced on Sunday that it signed a Memorandum of Agreement with ARTA for the "PaspasPilipinasPaspas" project deploying desktop computer units to local government units as part of the Integrated Business Permits and Licensing System.

"It is our honor and privilege to work with ARTA in the distribution of desktop computers to local government units under the iBPLS program," Meralco Senior Vice President and Chief Legal Counsel William Pamintuan said in a statement.
"Through all these collaborative efforts, Meralco affirms its commitment to ARTA in helping ensure efficient and streamlined processes and quality service for businesses all over the country," he added.
According to Meralco, its donation of computer units will help the LGUs in setting up their Electronic Business One-Stop Shops to ensure red-tape-free and more convenient business registration — from application to approval of permits.
