Digicel

As world heads of government continue to grapple with the mounting challenges, Digicel is contributing to efforts to educate the public and stem the coronavirus spread.

COVID-19 is spread mainly person-to-person, through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes.

At present there is no vaccine, so the best way to prevent illness is to avoid being exposed to the virus.

Here we’ve compiled a list of easy steps to protect yourself and others:

Governor Chris Haiveta announced the tower has been paid for and will be shipped up to the Station soon.

He announced this at Kikori Station recently.

“There will be a tower that the provincial government is putting up here. We've already paid for it, and it’s a matter of time for them to ship it across and the tower will be put up here by Digicel. So your communications issues are resolved,” said the Governor.

Topa, who is from Kagua, Southern Highlands Province, received the unexpected phone call from YumiFM’s renowned announcer Kasty, informing her that her number was randomly selected as the winning number in an automated draw for Digicel’s Christmas grand prize of K50,000 cash. 

Overall, Digicel was shortlisted four times across three categories and was pitted against the leading lights of the global communications industry at the 21^st staging of the prestigious awards.

Digicel Dominica CEO, Nikima Royer Jno Baptiste, who was shortlisted in the “Women in Telecoms” category for her phenomenal work and leadership in the aftermath of the devastating category five Hurricane Maria, which ravaged the island of Dominica in 2017.

This is expensive and out of the reach of most Papua New Guineans.

It limits PNG in connecting businesses, families and to the rest of the world.

“PNG’s firm reliance on fast and reliable telecommunication services is essential, and there is only one provider that truly covers Papua New Guinea and that is Digicel,” says the firm.

Digicel Dominica CEO, Nikima Royer Jno Baptiste, has been shortlisted in the Women in Telecoms category for her phenomenal work and leadership in the aftermath of the devastating category five Hurricane Maria which ravaged the island of Dominica in 2017.

With these prize packages, all winners can now enjoy great TV experience and entertainment with their families from the comfort of their homes.

The six winners are Benedict Pinoko from Buin in Bougainville, Nathan Pilake from Warongoi in East New Britain, Belden Plona from Goroka, Peter Lin from Kiunga, Navillie Benson from Lae and Izrael Raka from Port Moresby.

Mike Greig, Digicel Fiji CEO said; “This is an exciting innovation which brings the best in software as a service digitalize and boost our tourism economy. The introduction of this digital service underpins our commitment to better serve and support Fiji’s number one earner – the tourism sector. SmartButler is an exclusive product offered by Digicel for Fiji and the Pacific.”

Speaking at the official announcement, Digicel PNG’s Senior Vice President, Lorna McPherson, said: “We are extremely delighted to have the opportunity to partner with the Lamana Dockers AFL Club this year.

“Digicel is a company that is highly passionate about helping local talents and teams develop in their respective sporting codes and this year, we are excited to extend our support to the Lamana Dockers.

This was the message received by Digicel staff during an inaugural leadership program graduation.

Digicel ASPIRE is a development program designed to provide high professional Digicel staff support, and prepare them to move into future leadership roles within the business. 

The head of Digicel PNG Human Resource, Helen Gegeyo, said the program received overwhelming response from interested staff after it was launched on April 13^th, 2018.
