Kim Chiu apologized after her statement during the ‘Laban, Kapamilya!’ Facebook Live Event gave confusion to the netizens.

During the said event, Chiu made a remark that has gone viral on social media after she compared the issue of ABS-CBN to what’s happening inside the school classrooms.

“Sa classroom may batas, bawal lumabas, oh bawal lumabas. Pero ‘pag sinabi, ‘pag nag-comply ka na bawal na lumabas pero may ginawa ka sa pinagbabawal nila, inayos mo ‘yong law ng classroom niyo at sinumbit mo ulit ay pwede na pala ikaw lumabas,” said the actress in the Facebook live event.

Chiu was criticized by the many netizens for her confusing statement and even the ABS-CBN social media team took an action to save the actress from her own statement.

In a Facebook post on Saturday, ABS-CBN said that they didn’t post a graphic about Kim Chiu’s classroom remark.

According to them, what they posted is the clearer message of Kim Chiu that was disregarded on social media.

“Bakit ninyo tatangalan ng pangarap at pag-asa ang isang ordinaryong tao? Bakit niyo tatanggalan ng pag-asa ang tao na, ‘Gusto kong sumali sa ganito dahil kapag nanalo ako ay maipapagamot ko iyong lola ko.’… Iyong saya ng bawat Pilipino, kahit maliit lang, pinagkaitan niyo sila ng saya sa panahon na ito,” the graphic posted by ABS-CBN reads.

The actress didn’t realize that she already went viral until she woke up and surfed the internet.

“Hahaha nagising ako na trending na pala ako! Okay po. Hahah natawa nalang ako sa sinabi kong about classroom. Nadala lang ng emosyon. Sensya na,” Chiu said.

However, some followers of Chiu said that she’s making a point on her statement but the supporters of President Duterte couldn’t understand it because of their low IQ.

“Actually tama yung analogy mo. Hirap lang maintindihan nung mahihina ang kukoteng dds,” @AymJung said.

Zanjoe Marudo and Angelica Panganiban couldn’t stop themselves from cursing the people who supported the shutdown of television network giant ABS-CBN.

In a now-deleted Instagram post, Zanjoe Marudo who’s working for ABS-CBN since 2006 cursed at the people who supported ABS-CBN and vowed that the people who mocked them will thank them once they returned to television.

“Sige tumawa kayo, pero t*ng*na nyo, pagbalik namin magpapasalamat kayo!” Marudo who is known as Natoy in ABS-CBN’s “Tubig and Langis” said in his post.

Angelica Panganiban commented to Marudo’s post and made an expletive-laden rant towards the people who were happy about what happened to ABS-CBN.

Panganiban is a former supporter of President Rodrigo Duterte and even campaigned for the latter in 2016.

The post of Marudo and Panganiban was deleted after it became viral on social media and received criticisms from the netizens.

“Certainly, ABS CBN will bounce back. But of course, the network, together with its employees, should learn the “lessons” first,” netizen Ser Tristan said.

“The SCRIPTS they are reading do not tell them why their company was ordered to cease and desist. ABS CBN should educate its talents of the legal implications due to the non-renewal of their franchise. Bring your battle in proper court not on trying to manipulate people’s emotions. Enough of the DRAMAS! NO ONE CAN BE ABOVE THE LAW!” Anjh Bruzola commented.

“Tao din yang mga yan. May mga bagay din naman tayo na di na natin kayang pigilin. Sobrabg nainis na siguro talaga sya. Besides grabe mambash yung iba kala mo namang sila di nag mumura,” Angeline Joan remarked.

‘Ang Probinsiyano’ leading star Coco Martin couldn’t hide his frustration and concern over his future after his home network, ABS-CBN was forced to shut down by the government due to their expired franchise.

During the ‘Laban, Kapamilya!’ Facebook Live Event on Friday, Martin expressed his anger towards the actions of the government against ABS-CBN, saying that they already lost his job.

According to him, diplomacy was already useless in the current situation of ABS-CBN because of what the government did to them.

“Binarubal na tayo, tinarantado na tayo, kinuha na ‘yung bahay natin, ano ang i-expect natin diba… na ipagdarasal natin sila? Pinagdasal na natin sila, tiniis na natin sila,” Martin said.

He urged the people working with ABS-CBN to stood up against the people behind the franchise expiration of the Kapamilya network.

“Dapat iparinig niyo kung ano ‘yung nawala sa atin, diba? Yung 11,000 na nasa ABS-CBN iparinig niyo, kasi kung habang buhay tayong mananahimik ay aabusuhin tayo niyan, parang bata tayong kinotongan,” Martin said.

Martin argued that he already lost his job so he doesn’t care about his choices of words anymore.

He also said that he would fight for his family until the end.

“Wala na akong trabaho eh, anong ipapakain ko sa pamilya ko? Kapag ang pamilya ko ay kinanti, kahit sino ka pa, lalaban ako ng p*tayan sayo, kahit na pat*yin mo pa ako!”

Coco Martin is one of the successful talents of ABS-CBN and according to some websites, he already has a net worth of $20-M (1-B) and living in a lavish 2,000 sqm home in Quezon City.

One evidence of Martin’s wealth is when he promised to give a business package to a man who tattoed himself with ABS-CBN shows.

“PAG NAKABALIK KAMI PINAPANGAKO KO SAYO BIBIGYAN KITA NG PANGKABUHAYAN NG PAMILYA MO MAG TAYO KA NG TINDAHAN DYAN SA LUGAR NYO KAMI NAPO ANG TUTULONG SA INYO WALA NA TAYONG IBANG AASAHAN KUNDI TAYO ANG MAG TUTULONGAN!” Martin said on his Instagram post.

Veteran radio host and showbiz columnist Jobert Sucaldito revealed several details about the work environment inside ABS-CBN, saying that many workers of the television network giant experienced unfair treatment from the management.

In a Facebook post, Sucaldito clarified that he’s sympathizing with the people affected by the ABS-CBN shutdown, however, the management of the Kapamilya network should stop using the ‘11,000 employees’ as ‘human shields’.

Sucaldito said that ABS-CBN should stop using their employees to get the support of the public as he heard stories about former workers of the Kapamilya network being dismissed unfairly in different ways, including him.

The columnist also mentioned the story of former cameraman of ABS-CBN Journalie Payonan who narrated how the management of the Kapamilya network invited his colleagues who are expecting for promotion to a feast only to be told that they’re going to lose their jobs.

“Yung mga iba nabubulagan lang. Nadadala sa matatamis na dila ng ilang bosses diyan. Kung naalala niyo pa, maraming cameramen ang na-dismiss illegally diyan – maraming anchors ang pinagtatanggal nila dahil hindi nila kaalyado and kasali na ako diyan. Sabihin niyo nang I have an axe to grind against DZMM and ABS-CBN pero you have to realize also some truths behind all their dramas and all,” Sucaldito said.

“Nasa news iyan before – nung pinatawag ng mga bosses ang maraming cameramen sa isang five-star hotel and were served the best lunch in the world and after nilang kumain tsaka ibinigay ang walking papers nila. Masakit iyon sobra!!!! Sobrang sakit para sa mga cameramen na dekadang nagserbisyo sa kanila ‘tapos bigla na lang nilang tatanggalin nang ganoon-ganoon. Parang nasilya-elektrika ang mga iyon,” he added.

“SAAN ANG SINASABI NINYONG PUSO NG KAPAMILYA? SAAN? Ganoon ba ang Kapamilya? Walang puso? Dahil contractual lang sila kaya anytime ay puwede niyo silang sipain palabas? Anong kasalanan nila?” he asked.

Sucaldito also said that some popular artists are only being vocal in supporting ABS-CBN because they’re earning big money from the network while disregarding the other issues being faced by the television network giant.

“Kung napansin ninyo, sino ba ang yumaman sa ABS-CBN – silang magkakuntsaba lang naman sa loob ah. Sa rank and file, may gumanda ba ang buhay? Sa mga artists? Ilang libo ba ang mga artista at singers na walang trabaho? Kung mapansin ninyo, sila-sila ring mga alaga ng mga tagaloob ang napapanood sa mga teleserye – judge sa mga pakontes – regular sa ASAP – ano pa? Kung freelancer ka, mapalad kung makapag-guest ka once in a while. Natural na ipagtanggol sila ng mga piling-artistang ito dahil nakikinabang pa sa kanila. Ilan lang iyon,” the columnist said.

According to Sucaldito, artists should not defy the high-ranking officials of ABS-CBN or their favorite talents because they might face trouble inside the network.

The columnist even challenged the officials of ABS-CBN, not to argue with him because he might disclose more details about the Kapamilya network.

“Pag napag-initan ang isang artista sa loob, nunca nang makakalabas sa mga shows nila iyan. Subukan mong kalabanin si Cory Vidanes, Johnny Manahan, Deo Endrinal, Lauren Dyogi, etc., tingnan natin kung makakabalik ka pa diyan. Kailangang himurin mo mga puwet nila or sumunod ka sa mga gusto nila,” he said.

Sucaldito then narrated how he was ‘illegally dismissed’ in ABS-CBN-owned DZMM, after working there for 17 years because of the ‘Nadine Lustre issue’.

He claimed that he was forced to sign a voluntary indefinite suspension, but he refused to do it.

On March 5, Sucaldito filed an illegal dismissal complaint against ABS-CBN Network and DZMM.

“Subukan ninyong pumalag ngayon at baka ilabas ko ang mga baho ninyo. Don’t provoke me! Yung ginawa nila sa mga cameramen and other previous illegally-dismissed employees ay nagawa rin nila sa akin. Yes, January 7, 2020 pa lang ay di na ako pinapasok sa program ko sa DZMM because of the Nadine Lustre issue na iyon. Ang masaklap, pinag-apologize nila ako the day after my commentary then di na ako pinag-show,” he said.

“January 10, 2020 ay pinatawag ako ng meeting with my very competent kunong station manager na si Marah Capuyan at pilit akong pinapipirma ng indefinite suspension ng aking contract. And may go-signal ito sa ilan naming bosses. G*go ba ako para pirmahan iyon? Pinapunta ako para tanggalin ang sarili ko. Gin*go ako, di ba? Hindi ako ulol, ‘oy! Kaya wala akong choice kungdi ang ireklamo sila sa DOLE dahil kahit contractual ako, 17 years akong nagsilbe sa DZMM and almost 20 years sa ABS-CBN. Ilalaban ko lang ang karapatan ko and nothing more,” he added.

Before ending his post, Sucaldito said that ABS-CBN should not claim that the issue they’re facing is about politics or freedom of the press.

He also called what’s happening to ABS-CBN as ‘karma’ for using God in the issue.

“Ngayon sasabihin ninyong pinulitika lang kayo ng pamahalaan kaya pinasara kayo at dumadrama pa kayong papaano na lang ang mga pamilya ng more than 11,000 employees na damay sa pagsara nito. Hoy, magtigil kayo! Kayo nga itong mga walang pusong pinagtatanggal ang mga cameramen na iyon – pinakain pa ng masarap bago tsinugi. Kahudasan, di ba? Sa totoo lang, mas grabe ang pulitika sa loob ng istasyon. Iyan ang totoo riyan,” he said.

“Huwag tayong maglokohan. Anong pagkitil sa malayang pamamahayag? Kami nga’y halos scripted na lang ang puwedeng sabihin dahil bawal ang ganito…bawal ang ganyan. Alin ang malaya roon? Mabuti na lang at showbiz ang beat namin kaya we can sometimes play with words. Kaya stop the drama. Ilaban na lang ninyo legally ang pagbabalik ng ABS-CBN – stop using the people as human shields. Kaya tigilan na yang mga kiyemeng pagkalap ng 6 million signatures, etc. Let’s not tolerate kahayupan on earth. Tingnan niyo nga at naka-karma na tayong lahat dahil gamit na gamit na ang Panginoon sa mga kagagahan nating lahat. Tamaan na ng COVID 19 ang nagsisinungaling dito para matapos na ang isyu,” he added.

Sucaldito is one of the most controversial workers of ABS-CBN.

In 2010, Willie Revillame, the host of now-defunct noontime show in ABS-CBN ‘Wowowin’ said that he would leave the network unless they fire Sucaldito who became critical of his show.

On May 5, NTC ordered ABS-CBN to close down its operations and now airing their shows on the internet.

A fan writes a lengthy open letter to ABS-CBN’s ‘Ang Probinsiyano’ leading star Coco Martin after the latter made a series of posts against the critics of his home network.

Netizen EL Ai Ne saw the Instagram posts of the actor, calling the critics of ABS-CBN as ‘trolls’ and even told them to kick them in the face if they attempted to watch ‘Ang Probinsiyano’ if ever that the network’s franchise finally gets a renewal.

According to the EL Ai Ne, she’s admiring Martin and always watching his shows, however, she became disappointed with the actor’s recent social media post, saying that not only the ABS-CBN employees are having problems right now.

“Noon hinahangaan kita, tuwang tuwa ako tuwing napapanood ka. Pero bakit sa isang iglap nagbago ang lahat?” 

“Baby Coco, naiintindihan namin na tao kalang, nagagalit, naiinis, napipikon at napupuno. Pero, sana maisip mo din na hindi lang kayo ng management ng ABS-CBN, mga artista at yung 11,000 na manggagawa na sinasabi nyo ang nawalan ng trabaho o nawala ng hanap buhay, hindi lang sila ang naghihirap madami sa iba’t ibang sulok ng mundo ang naghihirap at nagugutuman. Baby coco, sa buong mundo bilyon bilyon ang tao, ang iba mayaman, ang iba nasa gitna at ng iba naghihirap. Yung mayayaman nagsipag para magkaroon sila ng maayos na pamumuhay, yung nasa gitna ay nag sisikap para naman balang araw ay yumaman at yung mahihirap karamihan ay nagpupursige para kahit paano ay umangat at maka alwal sa buhay, kaya baby Coco abot ka nmin, abot namin yang hinaing mo,” 

She reminded Martin that he should not blame the people for what’s happening to ABS-CBN, but fans like her are the reason why he achieved a successful career.

The netizen urged the actor to calm down because many fans like her don’t like to see him being angry.

“Baby coco, buong mundo may dinadanas ngayon, buong mundo ay nahihirapan 3 days palang nawala ang ABS-CBN. At ang pagkawala sa ere ng abs-cbn ay hindi kasalanan ng mga tao o ng kapwa mo Pilipino na supportes mo, tandaan mo na kung di dahil sa mga Pilipino hindi ka makakarating kung nasaan ka man ngayon kahit pa sabihin mo na may management ka, kaya baby coco iyang pag hahamon mo sa amin ay sobrang mali! Wala ka sa pedestal kung di ka namin pinanood at sinuportahan,” 

“Baby Coco, stop na kase madaming nasasaktan na nakikita kang nagkakaganyan, hindi yan ang ine expect namin sayo. Akala ko ba ang abs-cbn ay in the service of the Filipino worldwide? Pero bakit parang ang dating eh hinahamon mo pa ang mga Pilipino, bakit parang kasalanan namin? Bakit parang dapat damay kami? Nakikita mo ba ang batuhan ng salita ng mga kapwa mo Pilipino sa mga comment section ng mga post nyong mga artista? Nagkakagulo sila at nag aaway away, nagmumurahan at naghihiyaan. Baby Coco nilalalamon na ng galit ang puso mo, wag mong hayaan umabot sa punto na wala nang matirang pagmamahal sa loob mo,”

Before ending her post, EL Ai Ne urged the actor to let the rule of law prevails and support the right process of getting a franchise renewal.

“Baby Coco, hindi lahat nadadaan sa paninindak, hindi lahat nadadaan sa dahas at hindi lahat madadaan sa paspas. May tamang proseso ang lahat, may batas ang Pilipinas, may batas ang Diyos, nakikita nya ang lahat pasasaan pa at sa huli ang katotohanan ang mananaig. May awa ang Diyos, this too shall pass… Sending love and prayers to all of you na bumubuo ng ABS-CBN,” 

Yesterday, Coco Martin posted a series of Instagram posts criticizing the move of the government against ABS-CBN and also the critics of his home network.

“NGAYON ANG PAGKAKATAON PARA MAKAGANTI TAYO AWAYIN NATIN SILA AT WAG BASAHIN ANG MGA COMMENTS NILA HAYAAN NATIN SILA MAG COMMENTS PARA MAG MUKA SILANG T*NGA!!!” Martin said in one of his Instagram post.

ABS-CBN is facing its biggest problem right now after NTC decided to close down its network citing that its franchise was expired already.

Actress Kim Chiu made a message to the critics of ABS-CBN after her home network was forced to shut down by the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC).

In an Instagram post, Chiu who’s a Kapamilya for 14 years, explained what’s currently happening to ABS-CBN via a slideshow claiming that her network was forced to stop their operations because of politics.

Chiu stated that it’s already time to fight the ‘trolls’ who support the government’s action against NTC.

The actress said she became successful in life despite not being a lawyer, unlike the critics of ABS-CBN who only achieved little.

“Hindi na sapat ang manahimik lang sa situwasyon ngayon. Lalo na’t puno ng trolls, tards, bashers at kung ano man ang tawag sa kanila. Sa mga taong nagtatago sa likod ng sampu, benteng account! Para lang murahin kami! Pagsalitaan ng masama! Apak apakan!!!ikinayaman nyo ba yan?!!! Ang sabihan kami ng masasamang salita?!!!!” Chiu said.

“Oo hindi ako graduate ng LAW. Per   o nagsikap ako para marating kung nasaan ako ngayon DAHIL YUN SA KUMPANYANG ITO NA HANDANG TUMULONG SA BAWAT PILIPINO!!! Nakilala nyo kami dahil napanood nyo kami sa ABSCBN!” she added.

Chiu vowed to become vocal against the critics of ABS-CBN because the network gave her a successful career.

“Hindi na kami dapat matakot sa inyo!!!Kailangan na natin magsalita at Ipaglaban ang tahanang nagbigay sa atin ng inspirasyon, ng ngiti sa labi at lumalaban ako ngayon dahil ito ang tahanang naglagay sa akin sa kung nasaan man ako ngayon. Malaki ang utang na loob ko sa ABSCBN,” she said.

She also urged Solicitor General Jose Calida who opposed the franchise renewal of ABS-CBN and the NTC to let ABS-CBN exercise freedom of the press.

“SA LAHAT NG BUMUBUO NG NTC, kay solgen calida at sa lahat ng may tao sa likod ng cease and desist order sana po ay IBALIK NINYO ANG KARAPATAN NG ABSCBN SA MALAYANG PAMAMAHAYAG,” she remarked.

The post of Chiu already reached 90,000 likes as of writing.

‘Ang Probinsiyano’ leading actor and Kapamilya Coco Martin reacted on Chiu’s post, urging the actress to be more vocal against the critics of ABS-CBN.

According to him, they’re not afraid anymore because they already lost their job.

“Sige Kim, nasa likod mo kami. ‘Wag kang matakot sa mga ‘yan. Puro lang satsat ang mga ‘yan. Wala na tayo trabaho, pwede na tayong makipag-basagan ng mukha!” Martin said.

On May 5, the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) ordered ABS-CBN to stop their operations because of their expired franchise.

ABS-CBN quickly complied with the orders of NTC and signed off around 7 PM on the same day.
