Sen. Grace Poe—Senate PRIB MANILA, Philippines — The government must now show its mettle in cracking down on cybercrime as the registration of subscriber information modules (SIM) cards nears completion, Sen. Grace Poe said on Wednesday. At a press forum, Poe, chair of the Senate Committee on Public Services, said she was not impressed by the Philippine National Police report that cybercrimes increased despite the ongoing registration of SIM cards. The PNP reported on Tuesday that cybercrimes increased by 190 percent from January to June, or a total of 4,104 cases from 1,415 in the same period in 2022.
