Huawei Technologies, in collaboration with Digicel PNG, officially launched the latest entry to the ‘P’ series during a breakfast event.

The P10 smartphone is the latest Huawei ‘P’ series model to hit the market, boasting technological improvements rivaling that of other brands.

The sophisticated, user-friendly self-care voice platform is expected to significantly improve the way and speed at which customers get their queries resolved and get information on the different products, services and offers available to them.

Best of all, the service is free to all Digicel customers.

The telecommunication and entertainment company unequivocally refutes the false statements, which have been widely circulated on social media.

The Park's general manager, Michelle McGeorge, recalls joining the park seven years ago.

The area had no proper communication platform - no telephone line and internet. There were only 5 computers and 2 email addresses.

Since commencing this partnership, Digicel has helped in projects such as lining fibre optic cabling, CUG (closed user group) for staff, telephone line and internet.

Today, Digicel once more announced its continued gold sponsorship support of the park.

It's a red and black van stocked with food and beverages.

The concept is to bring its services close to its customers. So basically, it’s a downsized version of its factory, loaded in a van and brought to a location.

On its fourth day today, Loop PNG met up with the van at the Digicel Headquarters.

On location, it was stationed for two hours, from 11am – 1pm, serving a long line of customers.

According to the spokesperson, there are two vans that cover respective locations.
