Facebook Rolls Out Zero Data Charge Access in the Philippines

Facebook is offering free access to Philippine smartphone users, effective on Thursday.

The launch marks the first time Facebook has granted Asian smartphone users full access to the network without data charges. Subscribers will be able to access and share Facebook content for free through mobile browsers and its designated app for an initial three-month testing period. The company's partnership with Philippine network provider Globe Telecom (a regional associate of the SingTel Group) could indicate a more aggressive push to capture the Asian market.
