Mobile application Free Bee, which is powered by technology services provider PLDT Global Corp., is launching an online video series for overseas Filipinos to help them stay informed, entertained, and healthy amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
Titled “Rated Global Pinoy,” the hour-long lifestyle online talk show will feature topics that are close to the hearts of Filipinos around the world. In its upcoming episode, radio personality Papa Jackson and actress Ina Raymundo will talk about their views on long-distance relationships, and how OFWs can deal with being away from their family.
“This online campaign is meant to make our kababayans feel that they are not alone,” said Albert Villa-Real, chief commercial officer at PLDT Global. “We are going beyond connectivity to creating a venue where we can help Filipinos worldwide find ways to support their emotional needs while they are in a long-distance set up. Through these video series, we hope to deliver meaningful content that hopefully will make our OFWs feel closer to home.”

Free Bee aims to strengthen the connection of OFWs with their loved ones back home by enabling longer, ad-free calls in key migrant destinations such as the United States, Canada, India, South Korea, among others, at affordable rates.
The premium and affordable call plans are tailored to suit the needs of Filipinos with families living or working abroad and help them maintain strong family ties. Launched in 2017, Free Bee has also partnered with other companies and organizations all over
the world to provide services such as Smart, TNT, and Sun load top ups, online bills payment, application for insurance and loan products, and lifestyle guides for Filipinos overseas.
