Télécoms Sans Frontières (TSF)
At times of humanitarian crisis, we provide emergency telecommunications to help aid organizations and the victims they serve. In fact, PCCW Global assists Télécoms Sans Frontières (TSF) in this regard as a corporate partner. We are proud to work with TSF and will continue to help aiding people displaced by war or disaster.
Donation to orphanage/day-care refuge in South Africa
Our Johannesburg office donated computers and Internet access to the Thuthuzela Aid Community Centre, an orphanage and day-care refuge for abandoned and abused children in South Africa’s Alexandra.
Sichuan Earthquake Relief
PCCW Global came to the fore in May 2008, when an earthquake struck Sichuan in China, killing more than 68,000. Severe telecoms congestion hampered relief efforts, so we equipped China Red Cross with satellite phones to assist rescue teams. An MPLS connection was also provided so medical personnel in Sichuan could get real-time advice from Hong Kong-based specialists via high-definition video-conferencing.
