Globe has expanded its 5G roaming coverage to include the Netherlands, Bahrain, and New Zealand. The telco continues to explore further partnerships in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific in the wake of the pandemic's economic impact.
Currently, Globe 5G roaming service is available in 43 countries worldwide. The telco added Belgium, Luxembourg, Spain, and France to its list of roaming partners just last month.
Globe subscribers that connect via Zain in Bahrain, Vodafone in New Zealand, or KPN in the Netherlands will experience 5G roaming.
