Digital Inclusion Seen on Huawei's TECH4ALL Initiative

Wednesday, October 13, 2021


T
he goal is to build an inclusive world where no one is left behind. At Huawei's TECH4ALL Summit, the company and its partners spurred digital inclusion especially in the areas of equity and quality education, ecological efforts with the use of technology, accessibility to health and the use of ICT for rural area development.

Currently, they have around 60,000 people from the academe and students who are benefiting from these TECH4ALL projects in about 200+ schools around the world. It's not just plain ICT but its applications like resource management, biodiversity conservation, even building open schools in Egypt, African countries like Ethiopia and Ghana as part of their efforts to follow UN Sustainable Development Goals. It should develop new learning systems built on Technology, Digital Content and competencies so they could harness the power of it in the field of education. Huawei is also part of Vodafone Foundation's Instant Network Schools Program that gives education to refugees in their respective host countries, a thing that could benefit over 500,000 refugee students and their communities especially in the African continent.

As these projects grow, it takes TECH4ALL's goals in health and development closer to its objectives of an intelligent world where no one, no matter what religion, faith, race or ethnicity would be left behind. You may read all about these projects over at huawei.com/en/tech4all

Save up to Php 1500 with #PayMayaPayDaySave

Monday, October 11, 2021


Every payday, we deserve the little things we do with our salaries. Whether it's a good meal out in a restaurant (where dine in is allowed), a day in a relaxing spa and massage (with protocols followed), or even a good game we buy for our consoles. We worked hard, play hard, and have to make sure though that what we have, goes to good things... and perhaps save a buck or two.

During this pandemic, digital payments have saved us a lot of trouble so that we won't even have to go to banks to transact business. Well, they even went further and just released a couple of tips to make you save as much as Php 1,500 when using the leading financial app PayMaya.

During this pandemic, digital payments have saved us a lot of trouble so that we won't even have to go to banks to transact business. Well, they even went further and just released a couple of tips to make you save as much as Php 1,500 when using the leading financial app PayMaya.

If you pay for your electric bills regularly and have to go to the actual Meralco office and lineup for hours, why not do it on the PayMaya app and just add Meralco to your favorites. Paying for it there would get you up to 33% in savings because they'll give you a cash back which you can use for other things like online shopping (which is an essential stress reliever these days LOL). You can also pay for other merchants featured in the app and save up to Php 150. Purchasing in supermarkets and retail stores on the other hand would get you to save up to Php 200, even more cashback if you are a first time user... that's how generous PayMaya is!


If you haven't had Spotify yet, this is an opportune time to do so because you can get up to 100% cashback off your first month if you register and pay for it with your PayMaya number. There are tons of artists you love and music that you'll enjoy if you subscribe. It's my best friend when writing. Anyway, go download the PayMaya app on the Google Play or the App Store. Follow the guide and you'll have more money for shopping LOL!

MAINE MENDOZA for the new Vivo X70 Co-Engineered with ZEISS


She's lovely, she's funny, she's beautiful, she's artsy, and she's one of the Philippines brightest stars who you often see put out content and photos that are really good. She's also Vivo's Selfie Portrait Master Maine Mendoza, and together with the brand, they're introducing their technologically advanced photo centric Vivo X70 which is co-engineered by lens manufacturer ZEISS, one of the industry's finest.

This phone has ultra sensing gimbal technology to prevent those shaky moments when you take videos and photos. It takes brighter than usual photos, and even better night shots with its Zeiss Superb Night Camera and AI tech that makes it easier for folks to take photos during dark times. It's got more than enough storage and RAM at 12GB+4GB and 256GB. It can also be present at work and play because of its long lasting battery at 4400mAh and 44W quick charge if you need to. The display can do 120Hz refresh rates, so imagine what you can do with games and watching movies, the possibilities are endless! Make sure you watch Maine's videos and other influencers on Vivo's Facebook page.

Vivo also launched their TWS 2e wireless earphones that costs Php 2,999. It's got a pretty good microphone and noise reduction so you wouldn't be hearing much when you're in an important call or Zoom meeting. Vivo will also be doing a Christmas promo soon so follow their social channels if you're looking for a new phone soon. If you want to know more about the vivo X70, you may visit vivoglobal.ph/phone/vivo-X70 because it's all there!
