Philippine telecom operators say Huawei ban won't impact local users


(MENAFN) Two major telecommunication operators in the Philippines have confirmed to local users that their Huawei handsets and devices "will continue to function normally" even after the U.S. government issued an order on restricting transferring its technologies to this Chinese technology firm.

The Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company (PLDT) and Globe Telecom have issued separate statements assuring their users that the U.S. move to ban Huawei has no impact on their services.

PLDT said: "in light of the recent trade ban of the U.S. government on Huawei products," the company assured its customers "who have availed of Huawei handsets and devices via its official channels that said products will continue to function normally on the PLDT network."

It added that PLDT "will work closely with Huawei in addressing concerns regarding future firmware and software updates for phones, pocket Wi-Fi units, and other devices."
