Kapamilya stars Xian Lim and Ryza Cenon shared their hope that Congress would grant a franchise renewal to ABS-CBN.
At the story conference of the movie, Sana Muli, last January 23, Xian and Ryza Cenon were asked along with other actors about the franchise renewal of ABS-CBN.
Ryza shared how she hopes that the franchise renewal will be approved.
“Ako naman po, siyempre pinagdadasal namin lahat na sana ma-renew siya. Ang mas maaapektuhan kasi ay yung mas maliliit na nagtatrabaho sa ABS.
“Kasi, may mga family rin sila, na doon sila nakasandal doon sa trabaho nila na yun .Kasi kami, puwede kami magpelikula, puwede kami magganyan.
“So, yung mga nagtatrabaho dun, yung ang pinaka-main concern namin. Kaya talagang ipinagdadasal namin lahat na sana ma-renew.”
Kapamilya actor Xian believes that the network knows what to do about it.
“A, kaya na po nila yun. Di ko po alam kung ano ang mangyayari, e. Hindi ako updated sa nangyayari.
“Sa ngayon daw, patuloy lamang siyang magtatrabaho. Basta po ako, nagtatrabaho. Kung ano po yun, wala sa control namin… let it be.”
“Let it be. Just take it one day at a time.”
Some anticipated that the ABS-CBN franchise extension bills would finally move forward, following the resumption of Congress last January 20. But the action on the bills were still stalled.
