Globe<\/a>\u00a0is accelerating Misamis Oriental\u2019s digital transformation with expanded\u00a05G coverage<\/a>\u00a0and sustained network upgrades, reinforcing the province\u2019s role as a key economic gateway in Northern Mindanao. Strategically located along Macajalar Bay, Misamis Oriental is vital to regional mobility and commerce. The growth of industrial zones, business districts around Cagayan de Oro, and the adoption of e-commerce and fintech highlight the need for reliable, high-performance connectivity.\u00a0Globe\u2019s network<\/a>\u00a0improvements ensure communities and enterprises have the infrastructure to match this momentum.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Recognized by Ookla as the provider of the\u00a0\u201cMost Consistent Mobile and Fixed Network\u201d and \u201cWidest 5G Coverage\u201d<\/a>\u00a0in the Philippines, Globe has intensified 5G deployment in Cagayan de Oro and Gingoog, while strengthening coverage across coastal and inland municipalities. These upgrades deliver faster speeds, lower latency, and greater network capacity, enabling smoother streaming, high-definition video calls, secure digital payments, cloud-based operations, and real-time business applications. Even areas without new builds now enjoy stable and dependable signal performance.<\/p>\n

The upgraded network has already proven critical during events such as the 13th Kuyamis Festival in January 2026, celebrating the province\u2019s 96th founding anniversary, where thousands of attendees enjoyed uninterrupted connectivity. Schools, MSMEs, transport operators, and families are similarly benefiting from improved digital experiences every day.<\/p>\n

For enterprises, 5G supports scalable e-commerce, IoT integration, remote monitoring, and data-driven decision-making. In agriculture, healthcare, education, and logistics, enhanced connectivity enables precision tools, telemedicine, digital payments, and smarter operational workflows, boosting efficiency and competitiveness.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur sustained investments in Misamis Oriental reflect Globe\u2019s commitment to building infrastructure that empowers communities and drives economic progress,\u201d said Rozy Opina, Senior Director for Territory Business. \u201cReliable connectivity is foundational to growth, productivity, and inclusion, and we are dedicated to delivering a network that supports the province\u2019s ambitions today and in the years ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n

Apart from network upgrades, Globe is also continuously shifting its operations towards using electricity from renewable energy sources and upgrading to\u00a0more energy-efficient equipment<\/a>\u00a0to help improve energy security and reduce carbon emissions. In Cagayan de Oro, key facilities are already running on renewable energy, with on-site solar providing backup power. Across Misamis Oriental, Globe has implemented other green solutions, including equipment modernization and operational optimization, which reduce energy use and carbon emissions without compromising service reliability.<\/p>\n

\u201cMindanao\u2019s development is accelerating, and Globe is committed to ensuring digital infrastructure keeps pace with physical expansion,\u201d added Jowin Marquez, Senior Director, Network Technical Group. \u201cThrough continuous network upgrades, expanded 5G access, and green network initiatives, we are enabling families, entrepreneurs, and enterprises to seize opportunities in a rapidly evolving digital economy, while reducing our environmental footprint.\u201d<\/p>\n

Residents can maximize the strengthened network through Globe\u2019s mobile offerings, such as\u00a0GO+99<\/a>, while TM users can rely on\u00a0TM EasySURF50 5G<\/a>\u00a0for affordable connectivity. These plans support streaming, remote work, online learning, digital entrepreneurship, and everyday communication, helping more communities meaningfully participate in the digital economy.<\/p>\n

As Misamis Oriental expands its industrial and economic footprint, Globe remains committed to delivering reliable, high-quality connectivity that drives inclusive growth and long-term progress across the province, while advancing energy-efficient and greener network operations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
