Manila, Philippines (April 24, 2026)  — HUAWEI redefines how runners train and perform with the HUAWEI WATCH GT Runner 2, the lightest and most accurate titanium smartwatch in its class. The device was co-developed with King of Marathon Eliud Kipchoge, the first and only human to have covered a marathon distance in under two hours. Long advocate for running as a universal pursuit, his “No Human Is Limited” ethos reflects a belief that running belongs to everyone, not just elite athletes, regardless of pace or distance. The HUAWEI WATCH GT Runner 2 was powered by this idea, bringing elite-level training intelligence into the everyday routines of both recreational and competitive runners. “What made me collaborate with HUAWEI is that we have the same values.

The Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA) and GCash have partnered to enable OFWs to pay their membership fees via the GCash app. OFWs can now pay membership fees conveniently and securely using the Bills Pay feature of GCash, anytime, anywhere.

By digitizing the renewal process, OWWA and GCash are helping ensure that Filipinos have uninterrupted access to these benefits and protections, especially during crises.   “Digitizing the OWWA membership renewal via GCash is a vital component of how our agency is continuously modernizing for the benefit of our countrymen working abroad,” said Atty. Patricia Yvonne “PY” Caunan, OWWA ...

GCash has extended zero fees for transfers to and from the Middle East until April 30, 2026 to help ease the financial burden of its users and their families amid the ongoing developments in the region.   The initiative allows overseas Filipinos in affected areas to stay connected with loved ones back home and to receive assistance without added costs.

No registration is required, eligible fees will be automatically returned to GCash user accounts, and users will receive an in-app notification confirming that the cashback has been successfully credited. ...
