Microsoft Philippines preps local arm on Windows Vista
Microsoft is preparing its Philippine office in briefing customers on the next version of Windows, called Vista, scheduled for launch next year.
Aaron Turner, a security expert based in Microsoft’s headquarters in Redmond, Washington, visited the country to train local employees on “how to communicate better with customers on security.” Microsoft plans to train a workforce of about 300 Microsoft employees in the region.
Turner, whose expertise is on security readiness, also met with some of Microsoft’s local clients. “They felt like they’re not getting enough information,” he said when asked during an interview what common issues were raised by users.
