[아시아뉴스통신=페이 기자] National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) said that there is nothing illegal with ABS-CBN's airing of multiple programs in one channel through its digital television service.
Insofar as 6 programs in 1 channel is concerned, okay po ‘yun (it’s okay),” said NTC Commissioner Gamaliel Cordoba during the continuation of the hearings on the television giant’s franchise at the House of Representatives.
The NTC further explained that digital television broadcasting companies are entitled to own 6 megahertz of frequency allowing them to broadcast in not more than 6 programs in a channel.
Meanwhile, AKO-Bicol Partylist Rep. Alfredo Garbin also questioned the legality of the pay-per-view services of TV Plus.
NTC quickly pointed out that it asked the network to defer from offering such service in the absence of implementing rules and regulations.
