I like how SM does their business. They aim to be a true one-stop shop for their patrons.
For example, their SM Business Service Center caters to people needing some specific government transactions. SM doesn’t put up these business centers as a direct-earning kiosk. Instead, the kiosk attracts more foot traffic to the mall which in […]

On Pinoy.Tech.Blog, I write about Trying out PhilHealth’s e-Government services…

The machine has a couple of components:
