Globe Elevates Bogo City's Connectivity with New Cell Sites

Globe Elevates Bogo City's Connectivity with New Cell Sites

Globe continues to elevate its commitment to improving connectivity across the Philippines by firing up two new cell sites in Bogo City, Cebu.


These installations are located in Brgy. Binabag and Brgy. Marangog, promising significant benefits for residents, businesses, and tourists alike, enhancing digital experiences and supporting local economic activities.


The first cell site was strategically placed in Brgy. Binabag along the Cebu North Road, a vital artery connecting Cebu City to the Port of Hagnaya in San Remigio. It is seen to provide better connectivity to the barangay’s 2,500 residents, many of whom are engaged in agribusiness, sugarcane production, and fishery.


Brgy. Binabag is also the site of the scenic Mt. Kampitlok, a beloved local landmark that attracts hikers and nature enthusiasts. The panoramic views from the peak have inspired many to document their adventures through vlogs and social media.


With the new Globe cell site, visitors and locals can now share their experiences in real time, enhancing the visibility of this natural treasure and potentially boosting local tourism.


Meanwhile, the second cell site, built in Brgy. Marangog, addresses the critical need for improved data services for its 2,500 residents. As an agricultural community primarily focused on corn farming, Brgy. Marangog will experience significant enhancements in communication and access to information with this new infrastructure.


Better connectivity means more efficient agricultural practices, access to market information, and opportunities for local businesses to thrive. Residents will be better equipped to engage in digital learning, access healthcare services, and connect with broader markets for their agricultural products.


Bogo City, renowned for its sugarcane production and fishery, is vulnerable to climate change-induced hazards such as typhoons, floods, landslides, and storm surges, underscoring the importance of robust and reliable communication networks.


Globe’s cell towers not only enhance everyday connectivity but also strengthen the city's resilience during emergencies.


"By improving connectivity in Bogo City, we are empowering communities, boosting local economies, and enhancing the overall quality of life for residents,” said Joel Agustin, Globe SVP and Head of Network Planning and Engineering.


Globe's continuous efforts to expand its network infrastructure underscore its dedication to providing high-quality, reliable services to Filipinos nationwide.

BINI Takes Center Stage as G Fest 2024 Ignites Filipino Youth’s Courage and Passion

Globe keeps the excitement alive for the Filipino youth as G FEST 2024 kicks off with the nation’s favorite girl group, BINI, headlining the event on September 22, 2024, at the SMX Convention Center in Pasay City.

BINI, Globe Prepaid’s “Go Lang Nang Go” ambassador, has captivated audiences in past G Music Fest events, such as Cebu’s Sinulog 2024, Iloilo’s Dinagyang 2023 and 2024, and Bacolod’s Masskara 2023. The P-pop powerhouse group was also a Women In Music Philippines’ Rising Star awardee, presented by Globe and Billboard Philippines.

 

Aiah, Colet, Maloi, Gwen, Stacey, Mikha, Jhoanna, and Sheena have been inspiring young Filipinos with their infectious energy and dedication to their craft. Over the years, BINI has become a symbol of empowerment and determination, perfectly aligning with the core values of G FEST.

 

"Globe is proud to provide a platform where the youth can showcase their creativity and talent. G FEST reflects our commitment to encouraging the next generation to push boundaries and express themselves freely, and we’re excited to see how this year’s lineup will engage and motivate our audience," said Jerome Patalud, Head of Globe Rewards.

Fans will also have the rare chance to share the spotlight with their idols, creating unforgettable moments.

 

In addition, G FEST will feature engaging “Go Lang Nang Go” workshops, including "Dance Like BINI," where fans can learn the choreography for BINI’s latest hit, "Cherry On Top," directly from coaches, Mickey Perz, Reden Blanquera, and Matthew Almodovar.

 

Meanwhile, Denise Julia and Jason Dhakal will offer exclusive insights in their "How to Be a Pop Star" session, providing tips and experiences from their successful music careers.

 

Attendees can also explore artist merchants, curated by Patrons of the Arts, showcasing unique, youth-driven creations that celebrate innovation and artistry.

 

For those who can’t attend in person, Globe will livestream the Manila leg of G FEST on its Facebook and YouTube pages starting at 6 PM on September 22, 2024. 

 

G FEST 2024 will then go to Iloilo on October 5, 2024, at the Iloilo Convention Center, and in Davao on November 16, 2024, at the SMX Convention Center, Davao City.

KonsultaMD Introduces ₱499 Diabetes Screening Package to Encourage Early Detection

KonsultaMD Introduces ₱499 Diabetes Screening Package to Encourage Early Detection

Aiming to address the increasing prevalence of diabetes in the Philippines, KonsultaMD has unveiled a new and affordable diabetes screening bundle to encourage more Filipinos to manage their health.

 

The package makes early detection accessible. Priced at only ₱499, it includes a Fasting Blood Sugar test and a video consultation with a general practitioner.

Instruction on accessing the Basic Diabetes Screening on the KonsultaMD app.

Diabetes is the fourth leading cause of death in the Philippines and affects an estimated 1 in 14 adults, according to government data. Alarmingly, most individuals remain asymptomatic for 5-7 years before diagnosis, hence the need for diabetes screening. KonsultaMD’s bundle aims to make prevention and early detection possible.

 

The condition primarily impacts individuals who are overweight, those who smoke, drink alcohol regularly, have a family history of diabetes, hypertension, PCOS, or show signs of insulin resistance.

 

KonsultaMD aims to educate the public about diabetes risk factors and promote timely screening to help prevent related complications.

 

"Our goal is to empower Filipinos to take charge of their health. By offering an affordable and convenient diabetes screening package, we're making it easier for individuals to invest in their well-being and potentially detect diabetes in its early stages,” said Beia Latay, KonsultaMD CEO.

 

KonsultaMD's bundled plan simplifies the diabetes screening process. Users can easily access the service through the KonsultaMD app, schedule their Fasting Blood Sugar test with a partner diagnostic laboratory, and then consult with a general practitioner available 24/7 to interpret the results.

 

By promoting early screening, a healthy diet, exercise, and weight management, the company aims to contribute significantly to reducing the impact of diabetes on people’s lives.

 

This initiative aligns with KonsultaMD's mission to revolutionize healthcare access in the Philippines. As a portfolio company of 917Ventures, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Globe, KonsultaMD offers comprehensive telehealth services, including 24/7 doctor access, medical certificates, same-day pharmacy delivery, at-home diagnostics, and nursing care for newborns and the elderly.

 

Filipinos can take advantage of this affordable opportunity by visiting KonsultaMD website or downloading the app on the App Store or Google Play.

Bad Connection? You May Just Need to Reset Your Modem

Bad Connection? You May Just Need to Reset Your Modem

Resetting your modem can be a simple yet effective way to solve many common internet issues. Whether you’re experiencing slow speeds, or intermittent connections, or your WiFi just isn’t working as it should, a quick reset can often do the trick.

Troubleshooting tips sticker on the Globe At Home modem.

Resetting your modem may be all you need to fix your connectivity issues.

To see if your modem needs a reset, check its lights. If the LOS or third light from the left is red, that means there’s no connection. If the PON or second light from the left is not on or is blinking, you may have connection issues. In both cases, a reset may do the trick to bring your modem back to life. 

 

Globe At Home shows you five easy steps to get your modem back in action:

 

Step 1: Turn off and unplug your modem.

Start by turning off your modem. Most modems have a power button located on the back or side of the device. Press this button to turn off the device, then unplug the power adapter from the modem. 

 

Step 2: Wait for 30 seconds.

Wait for 30 seconds to give your modem time to fully power down and clear any temporary issues that may have been causing connectivity problems. 

 

Step 3: Check your cables.

Take a moment to check if all the cables connected to your modem are secure. This includes the power cable, fiber patch cord, Ethernet cables, and any other connections your modem might have. Loose or improperly connected cables could be a source of connectivity issues. Double-check them to save you from future headaches.

 

Step 4: Plug back in and power on.

After your 30-second wait, it’s time to bring your modem back to life. Plug the power adapter back into the modem. Once connected, press the power button to turn the modem on. 

 

Step 5: Wait for the lights and reconnect to WiFi.

Your modem will go through a series of checks as it powers up. You’ll see the lights blinking and flashing in various patterns. Wait for these lights to stabilize. Once stable, it’s time to reconnect your devices to the WiFi. 

 

"Staying connected is crucial in today’s digital age. Simply resetting your modem can save time and reduce frustration. Consider resetting your modem every few months or whenever you experience connectivity problems," said Abigail Cardino, VP and Head of Brand Management for Globe’s Broadband Business.

 

Technology isn’t always perfect, but a little know-how can go a long way in keeping your online experience smooth and enjoyable. Remember to take care of your modem to avoid additional charges in case the device is damaged and should be replaced.
