Boxing icon Senator Emmanuel D. Pacquiao said on Monday that the Senate and the House of Representatives should set aside their differences and act on the renewal or non-renewal of the ABS-CBN network franchise without any further delay.
“You cannot be neither here nor there on this issue. We all have to make a stand on the basis of what we know is right and just. Any more delay in making the appropriate action on this issue is causing panic and fear for thousands of ABS-CBN employees and their families. It is also being weaponized by some groups to destabilize the government,” he said.
Pacquiao said many of the thousands of ABS-CBN employees who might lose their jobs in the event that ABS-CBN’s operation is terminated are prominent media and showbiz personalities who can influence the public to discredit the government here and abroad. ABS-CBN’s head of human resources said the network itself has 5,918 employees of different employment categories.
They said the bulk of their programs carried on The Filipino Channel are also produced in the Philippines. He added that if proven guilty of the alleged abusive practices, the network should face charges rather than government pushing for its total shutdown.
