Globe Telecom is on track to hit its target of rolling out 2 million home broadband with speed of at least 10 Mbps by 2020 in line with its commitment to improve fixed internet in the Philippines. Unlike its mobile internet rollout, the strategy of Globe for home broadband is to provide reliable and high speed fixed internet one area at a time. The company announced that to date, over 260,000 home broadband lines have already been deployed.

Globe President & CEO Ernest Cu said, “We are catching up on the deployment of infrastructure for home broadband, after focusing on mobile for many years. Globe is accelerating home broadband deployment and plans to roll out 400,000 ultra-fast broadband lines by end 2017. Progressive rollouts will be done within the next 3 years until 2020 to serve at least 2 million homes.”

Cu emphasized that Globe intends to redefine home broadband experience for Filipinos, making Globe the preferred brand of choice for homes just as the brand has grown to be the most pervasive for mobile. “The quality difference and improvements on fixed internet will really be felt, we will transform every home using a Globe broadband into an ultimate entertainment hub as our customers enjoy high speed connection plus an unbeatable portfolio of exclusive content,” said Cu.

Cu expressed his desire for government to step in and do the necessary action to enable the telecommunications industry. Cu said that the company could have rolled out more lines this year had it not been for the permitting and right of way challenges that telcos are always facing at the local government level. “With our recent campaigns, our local government are beginning to hear us, and to some extent, some are more responsive than others. As we move forward, we have every reason to be optimistic that we can improve the quality of home broadband in as many areas as possible,” he said.

Making a Difference Through the Gift of Giving

For the children at the Philippine General Hospital (PGH) Pediatric Cancer Clinic and for those who lost their homes and belongings when Typhoon Nina hit the Bicol region last month, Christmas was certainly a challenging time which Globe Telecom turned into a chance to provide hope and courage.

“Christmas is a time for giving and spreading cheer. Thus, we at Globe take to heart the company’s purpose of creating a Globe of Good by encouraging our employees, customers, and partners to share their time, talent, and treasure to make positive changes in the lives of other people, in this case, young cancer patients as well as our kababayans who needed our care during disaster,” said Yoly Crisanto, Globe Senior Vice President for Corporate Communications.

A week into the holiday season, Globe already embarked on a campaign to raise funds for the rehabilitation of the PGH Pediatric Cancer Clinic to give its young patients a more equipped space ideal for their recovery. Through the campaign, Globe was able to cover the cost of renovation amounting to over P800,000.

But more than the monetary donations, Globe representatives and ambassadors also spent time and effort to treat the kids to a day full of surprises. From good food to exciting gifts, the company organized a fitting finale to its visit with the appearance of the 501st Legion dressed in full Star Wars Stormtrooper gear that provided entertainment to the children and their parents.

Turn yourself into a great writer!

Staring into a blank sheet of paper with a pencil in hand doesn’t make you a writer. Authorship begins when you learn how to use words in order to convey your ideas the way you want to be achieved by the audience. Obviously, many students do not bother themselves with writing nature as they benefit from ordering customized papers written by professionals. However, if you want to master the art of writing, follow these pieces of advice:

Form a habit of reading. Every day you have to read in order to educate yourself and blow up your word stock. That broadens your horizons and increases overall knowledge.

Practice in writing. Allow us to express a cliche'd cliched thought but practice makes perfect. The more you try to pen down your thoughts, the more precise they will be and the more polished your writing style will be.

Learn and use new words. When you meet a new word with interesting meaning, write it down to the notebook dedicated to this staff. Always add freshly learned words to the essays if they help to impress thoughts more to the point.

Practice in researching. Keep hand in searching data for certain topic and analyzing it using different methods of analysis. As a matter of fact, the discipline the topic belongs to should not necessary be field-specific to you. Thus you will not just practice but expand your perspective.

Familiarize yourself with different writing styles. Peculiar topics and essay types call for peculiar techniques and tones that are the most appropriate for the work with data.

Compare your work with others’ papers. It can be really helpful to look through essays written by professionals and your peer students to compare the quality.

Do not depend on the software spellcheck. Spellcheck misses misuse of words as well as some typos and sentence errors that may spoil the whole impression of the paper. Always proofread the text, read it aloud and run it though the plagiarism-detection software – no one tolerates plagiarized content in the educational institutions.
