The level of concern surrounding the spread of Novel Coronavirus 19 continues to rise. At DOCOMO PACIFIC, we recognize the impact it has on the communities we serve and want to ensure you that our response will remain proactive.

NTT DOCOMO Japan, the sole shareholder of DOCOMO PACIFIC has encouraged its 200,000 group employees in Japan to make use of telework and off-peak commuting as of Monday, February 23, 2020. Remote work is experiencing a boost as more people avoid physical gatherings where the likelihood of contamination is higher.
