In line with its thrust of empowering and equipping local businesses with connectivity solutions, Philippine premier telecommunications company Eastern Communications sealed partnerships with local Community Antenna Television (CATV) and Internet Service Providers (ISP) Mendez Cable TV Inc. and Clare Cable Television (TV). “We are thrilled to forge our partnerships with Mendez Cable TV Inc. and Clare Cable TV. This helps us recognize our goal of expanding our regional presence and likewise helps our Ka-Easterns get the connectivity that they deserve. Cavite and Batangas are identified as key areas for us at Eastern, and with these partnerships, we hope to see its residents and local businesses flourish,” shared Eastern Communications VP and Head of Sales Michael Castañeda.
Forging Strong Connections In Cavite
Through the partnership, Eastern Communications will provide Mendez Cable TV Inc. its Internet Direct Service (IDS), reinforcing the local provider’s connectivity services to residential and commercial customers within the 24 barangays of Mendez and 36 barangays of Indang in Cavite. Eastern Communications’ IDS is a country-centric and dedicated high-speed Internet service that offers lower latency and better quality of service to customers who require very particular connectivity requirements. Moreover, the reliable speed of IDS is highly recommended for provinces like Mendez as this will allow local subscribers to enjoy an improved network experience and help businesses fulfill their day-to-day operations smoothly.
Established in the municipality of Mendez from where the company took its name, Mendez Cable TV Inc. has been committed to providing quality cable tv and internet connectivity services to Cavite province for over eighteen years, including interconnection with larger telecommunications companies for fiber optic services, among others. “Providing quality services to our subscribers has always been our mission, and this support from Eastern Communications meets that promise. This endeavor will allow us to respond to the growing need for a stronger connectivity in our service areas, especially since Cavite has seen much economic growth in the last few years,” stated Rodelito Bay, owner of Mendez Cable TV Inc.
Expanding Connectivity Services In Batangas
Eastern Communications plants roots of partnership with Clare Cable TeleVision based in Taal, Batangas. The telecommunications company will provide IDS allocation to Clare, further strengthening the local provider’s services to its over 2,000 customers in the towns of Taal, San Luis, and Sta. Teresita in Batangas, as the operator expands. With its resilient connectivity to the world’s largest service providers, IDS is ideal for business startups and entrepreneurs seeking growth and catering to high demands. It can give your company the connectivity it deserves and let you stay confident at constant speeds you can’t experience anywhere else.
“When it comes to businesses with critical operations or those that require a special bandwidth, we always say that it’s best to go for Eastern IDS. Because not only will you enjoy a dedicated internet connection not shared by any other residents or businesses in the area, but also experience high-speed internet with no downtime. It’s clear that IDS is the ideal choice for stable internet connectivity in a Batangas-based company like Clare,” said Castañeda. “Since we’re in the business of keeping people connected, it was important for us to find a partner that understands this goal. In that way, Clare and Eastern Communications are alike, in that they may help us in achieving this connectivity with ease. At the same time, cable operators, just like other businesses, need to adjust digitally in order to strengthen our services and expand. We are very hopeful that the fruits of this partnership will satisfy all our users,” shared Engr. Corazon Reyes of Clare Cable TV.

Awarded by the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) for its Pipol Konek project, it provides the internet highway to public Wi-Fi government sites in the three areas of Batangas.
