Sen. Bong Revilla supports ABS-CBN franchise renewal

The returning Kapuso Sen. Revilla has expressed his support to the franchise renewal of ABS CBN.


Revilla expressed support to the franchise renewal during thanksgiving event for members of entertainment press in Quezon City on Tuesday, Jan. 5. Joining the senator was his wife Bacoor City Mayor Lani Mercado.


“From the very beginning naman, kahit na may sama ako ng loob sa kanila, supportive ako sa ABS-CBN franchise, at hanggang ngayon, iyon pa rin ang stand ko,” said Senator Bong.


The “Ang Panday” star also expressed his belief that ABS-CBN had already “paid” the consequences of their actions.


“Ilang buwan na ring walang trabaho iyong mga kababayan natin na nagtatrabaho sa showbiz. Saka kung meron man silang nasagasaan noon, siguro nag-suffer na rin sila diba?”


Now is the time to help the most affected with the network’s shutdown, said Bong.


“Ang importante ngayon, matulungan natin iyan, maibalik natin, mabigyan ng trabaho ang mga nawalan ng trabaho,” he said.


Revilla, 54, clarified that he had some bad-blood with ABS CBN’s News and Current Affairs team, not the Entertainment department.


According to the Senator, he has forgiven them.
