Citing rules and procedures of the commission, Cordoba said the NTC could issue a cease-and-desist order motu proprio if a radio station or a broadcast is operating illegally without any permit.” “We have already issued them because sometimes, especially during elections, there are illegal stations that crop up. They start broadcasting, so what we do is we issue cease-and-desist orders right away to stop their illegal operations because they don’t have any franchise, no permit from the government,” he added.

“During the 2019 elections, we issued cease-and-desist orders because most of these illegal stations crop up and start operating without any franchise or license during elections, madami po yun ,” he further said. Senator Francis Pangilinan, chair of the constitutional amendments and revision of codes and on public services committee, then asked the NTC officials to submit a list of cases wherein it has issued CDOs in the past.
