Globe has intensified its emergency response following the magnitude 6.9 earthquake that struck near Bogo City, Northern Cebu, on September 30. The quake triggered a tsunami alert and aftershocks that continue to be felt across Visayas.
The company is working closely with local authorities and partner organizations to deliver relief and connectivity support. Ongoing relief operations with Ayala Foundation, Inc. (AFI) have reached 3,165 families in Cebu, including 1,805 in Bogo and 1,360 in San Remigio.
Globe services were impacted in 15 provinces across the Visayas. As of this morning, full restoration has been achieved in the provinces of Aklan, Antique, Biliran, Bohol, Capiz, and Iloilo.
