Senator Nancy Binay remains upbeat that ABS-CBN will be back on air despite the denial of its franchise application by the House of Representatives.
In a statement Friday (July 10), Binay said ABS-CBN will emerge “stronger” from the ordeal.
“Sa ngayon, tinapos na po nila ang palabas. Inilabas na wala nang palabas. But consider everything as a pause or an intermission. Tulad ng radyo’t telebisyon, ipanalangin nating maibalik ang inyong mga paboritong programa makalipas itong malungkot na patalastas,” she said.
Binay asked the government for its plans for ABS-CBN employees who will lose their jobs because the network doesn’t have a franchise.
“I can only ask our leaders what their plans are for the thousands of workers who have lost their jobs. Sa panahon ngayon, lalong kailangan maramdaman ng mamamayan ang malasakit mula sa pamahalaan,” she said.
Voting 70-11, the House committee adopted the resolution denying ABS-CBN’s franchise application following exhaustive hearings on the network’s alleged legal violations.
