Congressman Salceda has no doubt that ABS-CBN's franchise renewal will not make it through with the House's scheduled hearing on the March 10 proposal.
According to Albay Rep. Joey Salceda's decision to open the initial hearing is a great step forward in relieving the perceived tension between those who favor and oppose the matter.
However, Salceda said he saw no reason to disapprove the renewal of the franchise of the TV network because he also saw positive signs from key groups directly related to or involved in the matter.
The congressman further referred to President Rodrigo Duterte who first expressed his dislike for the TV network but also saw his position weakening.
In addition, Salceda exemplified the CBCP franchise which was known by the President but also passed the franchise renewal.
Salceda is one of the principal authors for the CBCP franchise renewal and co-author of House Bill 676, which is among the remaining eleven proposals calling for an extension of ABS-CBN's 25-year renewal.
