TUNGKOL ito sa hinaing ng TFC subscribers sa hindi na umeereng The Voice Kids 3 sa ibang bansa na sinulat namin kahapon.

Ang official statement ni Ms. Marianne de Vera ng ABS-CBN Global Corporate Communication, na nakausap namin tungkol dito, ay halos kapareho rin ng mensahe sa aming Tito Bonggo Calawod sa Florida, USA.

“Hi Ms. Reggee,” ani Ms. Marianne, “as a result po of programming changes, TVK3 has been discontinued on all linear platforms effectively immediately.

“Pakisabi po sa kamag-anak ninyo, we understand they may have concerns regarding this development, rest assured that they can still enjoy our other offerings under the variety of genre.”

'Para pa ba sa akin 'to?' Zephanie, muntik nang umexit sa showbiz

Ipinarating namin kay Tito Bonggo ang pahayag na ito.

“They gave me a standard reply, which did not address my concern. Yes. If they are able to continue airing other programs, which I’m sure, are not being watched by TFC subscribers here, why single out TVK3? I suspect that they just really want TFC TV subscribers to patronize their other media platforms.

“Tell them, that if they really are taking care of their Fil-Am subscribers, they should also consider their entertainment preferences and needs.”

Hirit pa sa amin, “The reply they gave me is not in any way able to explain why we TFC subscribers shouldn’t feel shortchanged. It was too general and at the very least, is sending the message: ‘That’s our decision, and you need to accept it.’

Tinatawagan namin si Ms Marianne kahapon pero busy na siya sa kanyang inaasikasong event.

Samantala, nag-message rin sa amin ang kumare naming si Grace Lacayanga ng Vancouver, Canada kahapon ng, “Sayang, dami namin nag-aabang din. Sana ibalik lalo na weekend ilan lang palabas ng TFC, ‘yung iba replay pa. Buti na lang sulit kami ‘pag weekdays.” (REGGEE BONOAN)
