Globe said that this move is a part of the company's commitment to bring affordable internet solutions to every Filipino as the internet has become a necessity in the country.

According to the local telco giant, KonekTayo WiFi is a fast and secure community WiFi service that provides households with an affordable internet connection without the need for a modem, a postpaid subscription, or mobile data.

Residents can simply connect to a device and choose from various prepaid data packs that suit their budget.

Ernest Cu, Globe President and CEO, was present at the launch, expressing his appreciation to NHA on the partnership: We are grateful for this partnership with the NHA and will work with them to fulfill their core mission to promote decent, liveable, and resilient homes for all Filipinos, through low-cost and reliable internet connectivity.

KonekTayo WiFi is available in the following NHA communities: Disiplina Village I- Ugong, Disiplina Village II- Bignay, Valenzuela; Paradise Heights and Vitas LRB in Tondo, Manila; Malabon Homes in Malabon; Lanit River Plains in Iloilo; Greendale Residences, Guadalupe Heights, St Francis Village and North Hill Arbours in Tacloban, Leyte; and Paraiso Heights in Sagay, Negros Occidental.

Soon, KonekTayo WiFi will be available in other selected NHA communities nationwide.

Apart from KonekTayo WiFi, Globe has also committed to conduct ambassadorship training for the Digital Thumbprint Program (DTP) for communities and implement the eWaste Zero Program in various NHA areas where KonekTayo is made accessible.​
