After a week of thinking, I shot this last night as a response to the shutdown. Right now, thankfully, Speaker Cayetano files a bill granting ABS-CBN provisional authority. Here’s to hoping things get better from here.

The approval on the second reading of the House Bill No. 6732 came after the National Telecommunications Commission issued cease and desist order against ABS-CBN last May 5, 2020, as the broadcast network’s franchise was expired last May 4.

As per the report, Hon. Alan Peter Cayetano said that ABS-CBN may be back on air starting June 2020.
