Re ABS-CBN shutdown: ‘Kung lahat tayo mananahimik, aabusuhin tayo’ - Coco Martin

Coco Martin aka Cardo Dalisay to the millions of his fans in “Ang Probinsyano” is no longer holding back his emotions against the government when the Lopez owned station ABS-CBN had to go off the air following the cease and desist order issued by the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC).

In a Facebook live video dubbed “Laban Kapamilya” slammed the decision made by the NTC and has called other artist and celebrities to push back in support of ABS-CBN.

“Hindi labanan ’to ng diplomasya. Binarubal na tayo. Tinarantado na tayo. Kinuha na iyong bahay natin. Anong ie-expect natin? Pagdadasal natin sila? Pinagdasal na natin sila. Tiniis na natin sila. Dapat kumilos na tayo. Magsalita tayo,” he said.

“Kasi kung lahat tayo mananahimik, aabusuhin tayo niyan . . . Kasi ito iyong pagkakataon natin. Wala na tayong trabaho. Ano ang iingatan natin?”

The “Ang Probinsyano” actor lashed out at the Duterte government for shutting down the Lopez owned company that has helped different communities during the novel coronavirus 2019 disease or COVID-19 pandemic.

“Ano ang uunahin natin ngayon? Tanggalin ang kompanya na tumutulong sa ating kapwa, sa lahat ng mga Pilipino, o ’yung sugal na pinapasok sa ating bansa? Buti pa ’yung POGO, pinaglalaban niyo. Itong kompanyang tumutulong sa lahat ng mga tao ngayon, pinasara niyo," Martin said.

Martin also slammed Presidential Spokesperson Atty. Harry Roque as regards his remark that the ABS-CBN employees can ask for aid from the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) following its closure.

“Ang buong Pilipinas nga hindi niyo masuplayan, pati pa kami makikidagdag?” he said.

“Kasi po ito ang pagkakataon namin para tumulong. Kasi po ‘yong mga hindi nagagawa ng iba, kami na po ang gagawa. Kasi nakakahiya naman po sa inyo,” he said.

ABS-CBN is the network that gave Martn his big break in showbiz, that is why the actor would not just sit down and allow ABS-CBN forever closed.

“Wala po akong talento. Ang liit ko. Ang pangit ko. Itim ako. Bulol ako. Hindi ako marunong mag-Ingles. Wala akong kapasidad, walang katangian para maging artista, pero hindi po ’yun ang tiningnan ng ABS-CBN. Ang tiningnan nila ay kung ano ang kapasidad mo para magtrabaho at ipakita ang talento mo,” he said.

“Kapag ang pamilya ko kinanti, kahit sino ka pa, lalaban ako ng patayan sa iyo kahit patayin mo pa ako,” he said.
