1 of 2

Globe continues to deliver critical support to communities affected by Typhoon Tino, with accelerated restoration efforts across the Visayas and Mindanao. The company has deployed technical teams, activated Libreng Tawag and Libreng Charging (LTLC) stations, and is preparing for wider relief operations in severely impacted areas.

Globe services have been fully restored in the hardest-hit areas of Dinagat Islands and Surigao del Norte in Mindanao. In the Visayas, Aklan, Antique, Biliran, Bohol, Capiz, Eastern Samar, Guimaras, Northern Samar, and Siquijor have also achieved 100% network restoration. Ongoing restoration continues in the hardest-hit provinces of Cebu, Leyte, and Negros Occidental, where Globe teams remain deployed to expedite full recovery.

Relief Operations

In partnership with Ayala Foundation Inc. (AFI) through Brigadang Ayala, Globe has begun relief efforts for affected communities. The first batches of food assistance include 500 food packs distributed to Barangay Dumlog in Talisay City and another 500 food packs delivered to Barangay Bonbon in Cebu City, both in coordination with local government partners.

Additional relief deployments are being coordinated with local government units and partner organizations to reach more families in need across the Visayas and Mindanao.
