Solicitor General Jose Calida attended the committee hearing at the House of Representative to break his silence regarding the ABS CBN franchise renewal.

Calida also thrown strong words regarding the previous statement of Kapamilya actor Coco Martin about the closure of the media giant.



He said, Coco seems to have “tantrums” and calling for a “fight” with his rants on social media.

“It appears that he feels he can solve the problems the same way as he solves them on screen, with macho bluster and bravado,” Calida said.

“If I had not been the Solicitor General, I would have called his bluff and make him eat his words,” he added.

The solicitor general, said that the actor’s outburst clearly showed “lack of understanding” of the franchise issue.

He also insisted that granting of a franchise is not a right but a “privilege subject to regulation.”



Calida quoted Coco’s earlier statement: “Kapag ang pamilya ko kinanti, kahit sino ka pa, lalaban ako ng patayan sa iyo kahit patayin mo pa ako.”

“Maraming maraming salamat Solicitor General Jose Calida at sa bumubuo ng National Telecommunications Commission sa kontribusyon niyo sa ating bayan! Tinatarantado ninyo ang mga Pilipinas!” the actor added

“Pasensya na po kayo, sobrang galit na galit lang po ako, ngayon lang po kami maglalabas ng sama ng loob. anong klaseng mga tao ito? sa gitna ng pandemya, nauna nyo pang isipin na ipasara ang ABS-CBN kesa tugunan ang problema ng bansa! Bakit sa panahon ngayon, kami pang mga artista ang naisip nyong tanggalin, nasaan ang hustisya?" he said


Coco Martin is one of the famous actors in the Philippines. He is popularly known for his role as “Cardo Dalisay” in FPJ’s remake of Ang Probinsyano.
