MANILA, Philippines - TV5 and Philippine Children’s Television Foundation, Inc. (PCTVF) recently inked a deal to bring every Filipino child’s playmate Batibot back on air. Under the agreement, TV5 was granted broadcast and line production rights to air a new season of the child-oriented show from PCTVF. This further strengthens TV5’s position as the most child-friendly station with most number of Anak TV seals because of its program line-up skewed to cater to children.
Present during the contract signing were (from left) TV5 president and CEO lawyer Ray Espinosa, PCTVF executive director Feny delos Angeles-Bautista and TV5 EVP and COO Roberto Barreiro.
The return of Batibot signals the commitment of TV5 and PCTVF to deliver knowledge-based entertainment to kids through an iconic program a generation of Filipinos had grown up with.
