"Nakabibigla na isasara ang ABS-CBN habang muling pinapayagang magbukas ang mga POGO" - Robredo

Vice President Leni Robredo cannot hide her dismay over the action of the National Telecommunication Commission’s (NTC) cease-and-desist order(CDO) on the Lopez owned ABS-CBN. She even concluded that the shutdown will “cost lives” amid the country’s battle with the coronavirus pandemic.

She questions the timing of the NTC’s order when we are in the midst of the health crisis where information dissemination is vital in this time.

The Vice President slams the Duterte administration when it would allow the partial resumption of operations of the Philippine Offdhore Gaming Operations (POGOs) in the midst of the novel coronavirus 2019 disease or COVID-19 pandemic and letting the giant television network to be off the air.

“Lalong nakabibigla na isasara ang ABS-CBN habang muling pinapayagang magbukas ang mga POGO. Hindi mahirap matukoy kung alin sa dalawang ito ang mas nakatutulong sa pagtugon sa krisis na kinakaharap natin ngayon,” said Robredo.

[Translation: It’s surprising that ABS-CBN will have to stop operating while the POGOs were allowed to resume their business. It’s not difficult to distinguish which one of these policies is more beneficial in solving the crisis we are facing now.]
