Stars and reporters of GMA Network are expressing solidarity for their counterparts in rival TV network ABS-CBN, whose franchise renewal remains in limbo.

Dingdong Dantes, the star of the Philippine adaptation of 'Descendants of the Sun,' said that although ABS-CBN is the direct competitor of his broadcast network, they belong to one industry.

Magkaiba man ng bakod, we are one in the media industry. We have one love for the many talents and crafts under this Network, the products and output of which, directly or indirectly, benefit the lives of millions of Filipinos."Magkaiba man ng bakod, we are one in the media industry. We have one love for the many talents and crafts under this network, the products and output of which, directly or indirectly, benefit the lives of millions of Filipinos," he tweeted on Tuesday.

He shared quotes from Buhay Party-List Rep. Lito Atienza during his privilege speech on Tuesday. He noted that Congress should act on several franchise renewal bills languishing in the House. The actor said lawmakers should set aside politics and act based on the laws. "In the end, I pray that the true interests of the people, under the rule of law, will prevail over any other political agenda conveniently veiled as a countermeasure against alleged abuses," he said.

Kapuso actress Eugene Domingo shared an Instagram post of the ABS-CBN logo and signal tower, saying that at the end of the day, both networks are one family.
