Globe has announced that 5G roaming is now available in Vietnam and Saudi Arabia.
Globe was able to secure partnerships with Viettel of Vietnam and STC of Saudi Arabia, adding to Globe’s growing list of 5G-ready roaming partners which include Singtel in Singapore, CSL in Hong Kong, and Ooredoo in Kuwait.
“We recognize that we still have kababayans and customers who require the quality and convenience that comes along with 5G technology to fulfill their obligations wherever they are in the world”, says Coco Domingo, Globe Vice President for Postpaid and International.
Despite travel restrictions, the telco is preparing for a future wherein customers can enjoy the benefits of 5G technology once the world is open and ready for travel.
“More than just uninterrupted speeds, 5G is set to reinvent how travelers will experience retail, entertainment, healthcare and so much more in 5G-powered cities,” adds Domingo.
Globe Roamers who subscribe to Roam Surf 399 (all-day surfing for Postpaid, 1GB for Prepaid) can experience the 5G speeds in these international destinations as long as their mobile devices are 5G-enabled. To ensure reliable mobile internet service for all its customers, usage of Globe’s all-day data roaming is governed by the telco’s Fair Use Policy.
Globe’s continuous effort to expand 5G coverage in international destinations is in line with their commitment to implement the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDG), specifically UN SDG No. 9, which compels society to move forward towards solutions to develop infrastructures, industries, and innovation sustainably.
