Cheaper SMS Charge ordered by NTC

Do you spent half of your time on your cellphone? Probably, texting become a habit and since you have so many text mates stored at your phone then i have a good news for you. Starting December 12, 2011, sms messaging has been lowered by 20%, from 1 peso to 0.80 centavos. Its a great Christmas gift for all the subscribers. However, up until now i havent heard yet from the giant company namely Sun, Smart and Globe as to when they will take effect these changes in rate. Heres a excerpt from a news article:
-------------------------------------------------
Smart Communications, Globe Telecom, and Sun Cellular were ordered by the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) to explain why they failed to lower the rate for short messaging service (SMS) to 80 centavos from P1.

Glem Ecal of the NTC Public Information Office on Friday told GMA News Online that they have yet to verify if the networks already received the order, which was released on Dec. 12.

The telcos have 15 days to reply once they have received the NTC order.
