“Our restoration work continues in communities severely affected by the typhoon. Some areas may still experience signal disruptions due to power outages affecting all telco operators. We assure our customers that our network teams are working nonstop to fully restore PLDT and Smart’s signal in affected sites,” said Cathy Yang, First Vice President and Head of Group Corporate Communications at PLDT and Smart.
