“Nasa panahon tayo ng humahagupit pa ang mata ng covid 19 sa labas ng mga bahay natin at nagbabanta na makapasok at manalanta hindi po mainam na magtagal ang pagsasaayos ng franchise ng aming network ito ang oras para harapin ito dahil kailangan ng information ng mga pilipino sa buong mundo at lalong kailangan ng trabaho ng nasa industria ng telebisyon at pelikula,” he added.


“Umpisahan na kagyat ang pagdinig dito at unahin harapin ang mga dapat baguhin,” with this said, the actor some DDS and started calling him as "balimbing."


Because aside from the disagreement about the network's channels and pay per view issue, it can be remembered that the president countlessly called out ABS CBN for being "bias" and for "hurting his feelings."

“Mga kababayan nasa peligro ang bawat buhay ng Pilipino at ang economia ng bansa naniniwala ako na ang lahat ngayon ay bukas sa pagbabago at handang sumunod sa kung ano ang dapat, maitawid lang nating lahat sa pagsubok at makaahon ang Inangbayan Pilipinas,” the action star continued.
