Manuel V. Pangilinan, Chairman of Mediaquest Holdings said, “We welcome the entry and investment of ABS-CBN in TV5, as ABS-CBN has always been the leading developer and provider of Filipino-related entertainment content not only in the Philippines but overseas as well. Our companies have always had these cherished values of providing top and quality programs in the service of the Filipino people and together we believe we can achieve this in greater measure and success”.
Mark Lopez, Chairman ABS CBN said “We are excited with this partnership as we see the opportunity to help TV5 grow and strengthen its free to air network.

Julie Anne San Jose and Gary Valenciano Take Their Collaboration To New Heights In New Song 'Di Ka Akin'
The Asia's Limitless Star and Mr. Pure Energy are joining forces for a collaboration.
That’s right, Julie Anne San Jose and Gary Valenciano have a new melodic single called “Di Ka Akin” released under Universal Records. (WATCH OFFICIAL LYRIC VIDEO HERE)
Celebrated as two of UR’s most sought-after artists for many years, this collaboration surely is a treat to their long-time fans. The track features a hypnotic mellow vibe, giving listeners an opportunity to really just let out their emotions during the times that they feel like they can’t move on from a lost love.
“Di Ka Akin” also marks as the first release after Universal Records Philippines announced its official partnership with Singapore-based music label Cross Ratio Entertainment. The partnership aims to strengthen and promote Southeast Asian music around the globe and bridge the gap between artists and audiences in neighboring countries, bringing them closer to new and existing fans in the SEA region.
The gorgeous pop ballad with Julie Anne’s writing and vocals on full display easily impressed Gary V., a reason why he said Yes to this collaboration in a heartbeat. For the OPM icon, an excellent artist like JAPS does not come very often and you really don’t want to miss an opportunity like this. And if you ask Julie Anne who wrote this song last year, she still finds the whole experience about this collaboration a dream come true.
“Di Ka Akin” is part of the New Music Friday Philippines playlist on Spotify this week.
