The Lopez controlled ABS-CBN
Corporation bid for a new legislative franchise is under way.
The House of Representatives
conducted its joint panel hearing and one of its guest is the current Chief
Executive Officer (CEO) Carlo Katigbak.
Katigbak categorically
denied the accusations in social media that the giant tv station is mustering
public sympathy and insists that the law was on their side.

Sinasabi po ng mga
bumabatikos sa amin, the law is the law and we agree, the law is the law and
under the law we are innocent unless proven guilty,” Katigbak said during his
opening remarks at the inquiry held by the House committees on legislative
franchises and on good government and public accountability.
“Up to now there is no court that has
determined we have broken any laws,” he said.
“Sabi po ng BIR, bayad ang aming
buwis. And Department of Justice ang nagsabi na hindi labag sa prangkisa ang
KBO (pay per view channel). Ang DOLE naman ay nagsabi na sumunod kami sa lahat
ng compliance orders nila. Wala po kaming nilabag na batas,” Katigbak said.
Katigbak also gave an
update that the family of the 11,000 employees was suffering while the tv station
is shutdown.
“Ang pagmamahal sa pamilya
ang pinakamahalaga. Sa mga nakalipas na linggo, nagdurusa ang pamilya ko.
Natatakot sila sa kinabukasan at kinabukasan ng mga mahal sa buhay,” Katigbak
said.
