Robin Padilla has once again shown his full support for President Rodrigo Duterte against the ABS-CBN’s franchise renewal.
The “Bad Boy” of the Philippines mentioned that the giant network should admit the black propaganda it has committed last Election 2016.
Robin also commended Risa Hontiveros for stating that ABS-CBN should be a pro-worker franchise.
Robin stated: “Sa oras na ito ay parehas kaming para sa maliliit na manggagawa ng abscbn na gawing regular na empleado kung bibigyan ng muling pagkakataon in shaa Allah mabuhay ang ating adhikaing para sa Dios para sa Inangbayan para sa Taongbayan POLITIKO – The bible of Philippine Politics.”

Hontiveros urged the giant network to implement changes to benefit workers, not just for when they are applying for a franchise renewal.
Hontiveros: “Dapat genuine ang pagkalinga sa mga 11,000 manggagawa at hindi lang dahil may banta ng pagsasara.”

Robin also praised Ronald “Bato” dela Rosa, considering the senator as the one true war hero.
He defended Bato against DJ Chacha who suggested that the senator resign for being loyal to the president rather than the country.
“Hindi naman manipis ang mga yan pero wag naman for the sake of their service wag natin po kalimutan ang mga kabayanihan ng mga taong ito literally they made the Pilipino spirit live in the hearts of our countrymen especially to our soldiers and policemen who are on call in giving their life and sacrificing their most precious families. The Man is the meaning of duty to the country and loyalty to the Flag whatever he is accused now and presently undergoing sanction from a foreign government we should be on his side how can we talk about freedom when senators from another country are exerting their sovereignty on us.”

The Philippine Constitution does not allow foreigners to own media companies in the Philippines, which is why during the Senate hearing last Monday, February 24, 2020, Senator Dela Rosa asked ABS-CBN’s Carlo Katigbak if Chairman Emeritus Gabby Lopez is a US citizen.
To address the issue raised by Dela Rosa, Katigbak confirmed that Gabby holds a Philippine passport.
Katigbak: “Gabby Lopez is a Filipino citizen. Tatay niya po is a Filipino at may hawak din po siyang Philippine passport.”
