#Smart Connect Program

PLDT also rolls out its Smart Barangay Connect program to all Antipolo barangays, delivering fiber-powered Wi-Fi connectivity to barangay residents for free. As per Smart, this partnership is part of the company's "Live Smarter for a Better World" campaign, highlighting its long-running community partnership programs. Other than providing connectivity, Smart has also been supporting to rehabilitate the Marikina Watershed, which is in part located in Antipolo City. For years, Smart, in collaboration with Philippine Disaster Resilience Foundation, the government, and the private sector, has implemented livelihood programs for those living within the watershed areas, as well as encouraged its employees to join in activities such as tree-planting and other reforestation efforts. Smart's Barangay Connect project will also soon extend to key areas around the Philippines, starting with Antipolo, Mandaluyong, Las Pinas, General Santos, and Nueva Ecija. in excess of 60 hours) Initial Payment: Php799 (includes USB modem dongle) MSF: Php799 Smart Bro Prepaid Php10 per 30 minutes Php2,500 one-tme fe for the USB modem dongle The original Plan 799 has also been revised with an additional 20 hours free connection time.
