PFOCN marked a significant milestone on December 11, 2025, as the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) officially awarded the company its Green Lane Certificate—a recognition reserved for high-impact, strategic investments that support national development.

The certificate was personally presented by DTI Secretary Cristina Roque together with Undersecretary Ceferino Rodolfo during a special handover ceremony. In her message to PFOCN, the Secretary expressed her gratitude for the company’s continued investments and contributions to the Philippines’ digital infrastructure sector. She emphasized that PFOCN’s initiatives are aligned with the country’s priority programs and play a crucial role in helping achieve broader economic and technological goals.

She also encouraged the company to bring in more investments in the remaining two and a half years of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s administration, citing the administration’s support for transformative and future-ready infrastructure projects.

Reinforcing DTI’s commitment, the Secretary assured PFOCN of the agency’s readiness to offer assistance at any stage of the investment process. The Green Lane Certificate opens access to expedited inter-agency coordination and streamlined processing of permits—helping accelerate project timelines and implementation.

PFOCN welcomes this recognition and looks forward to deeper collaboration with the Philippine government as it continues to expand and develop next-generation connectivity solutions across the country.

CEO Ms. Alice Xie and CFO Ms. Sunny Wang accepted the certificate on behalf of PFOCN.

At PFOCN, we believe our strength is measured not only by our business achievements but also by the positive impact we create in the community. This holiday season, we are honored to reflect on a meaningful milestone: the third consecutive year of our collaborative Outreach Program with the Singapore Philippines Association Inc. (SPA) at the Lourdes Handicapped Center.

This enduring partnership, championed by SPA’s dedicated leaders and brought to life by the generous spirit of PFOCN employees and partners, embodies the core values we hold dear: compassion, community, and shared humanity. This year’s efforts were further strengthened by the hands-on participation of our CEO, Ms. Alice Xie, who joined our volunteer team—demonstrating leadership in action and PFOCN’s deep, company-wide commitment to giving back.

Together, we have transformed the holiday season into a time of genuine connection, delivering tangible support and warmth to those in need.

We extend our deepest gratitude to SPA for their unwavering collaboration and to every PFOCN team member and sponsor whose contributions—whether through volunteerism, resources, or heartfelt effort—made this initiative possible. Your involvement is a powerful testament to what we can achieve when united by a common purpose.

As we look ahead, PFOCN remains dedicated to building a legacy of meaningful action—where partnership extends beyond business, and success is measured by the positive change we create together.

In line with our mission to support young local artists and strengthen the partnership between De La Salle University and PFOCN, we launched the PFOCN Culture Wall Art and Design Competition in collaboration with DLS-College of Saint Benilde (CSB).

Inspired by a professional advice session with renowned Singaporean artists in November 2024, the competition officially launched in February 2025. It featured two categories—Hangable Artworks and Sculptures—and provided participants with materials to bring their visions to life. We received an enthusiastic response, with around 40 entries submitted. The shortlisted works were exhibited on campus for two weeks.
