Latvia, Netherlands and Austria are also expected to make the list in the coming weeks, bringing the number of Globe 5G roaming-ready countries to 40. Outbound Globe customers can now enjoy 5G Roaming through the following telecom partners: Belgium (Proximus), Luxembourg (Tango), Spain (Telefonica), and France (Bouygues). Likewise, visiting subscribers of Belgium’s Proximus, Luxembourg’s Tango, Spain’s Telefonica and Netherlands’ KPN may also enjoy the benefits of 5G Roaming while in the Philippines.

Despite the pandemic, Globe continues to explore more partnerships in different parts of the world. This will ensure that the company can meet the needs of its customers for 5G speeds once it is safe to travel again. Globe continues to fortify its supremacy in delivering a #1stWorldNetwork. It has fired up more than 2,000 5G cell sites as of end-November 2021, an 88% increase versus 2020. 5G technology provides higher bandwidth and speeds of up to 100 Mbps. It has almost real-time latency allowing quicker response time for new technologies.

Coco Domingo, Globe VP for Postpaid and International Business: While we strive to increase Globe’s 5G presence in the Philippines, we are also working hard to widen our footprint for 5G Roaming. As more smart cities emerge worldwide, we want our customers to experience new ways to connect and engage as they travel. Expect Globe to accelerate its 5G builds abroad as we gear up for travel’s full recovery.
