The MVP Group of Companies is putting forth its best efforts in anticipation of the onslaught of Typhoon Rolly.
In a tweet last Saturday, Manual V. Pangilinan committed that network operations centers for telco, power, and tollways will be operational and manned 24 hours and that the Group has mobilized its foundations to do relief and medical work in the wake of the typhoon.
He also mentioned that restoration teams from PLDT-Smart and Meralco are also on alert.
Meralco Spokesperson and Head of Corporate Communications Joe Zaldarriaga confirmed that measures are now in place to mitigate the impact of the typhoon. Personnel are also now on standby to immediately respond to possible power outages.
Smart Communications has launched the Smart Store on Wheels to provide free calls, free Wi-Fi connection, and free charging to areas that are on the path of the typhoon. They will be deployed in the following locations:
- Aurora
- Bataan
- Bicol
- Bulacan
- Pampanga
- Tarlac
- Zambales
The MVP Group also urges the public to prepare, remain vigilant, and to stay informed on updates about Typhoon Rolly. Likewise, everyone is reminded to keep all communication channels open and ready by ensuring mobile phones, laptops, radios, and other gadgets are fully charged.
