Veteran broadcast journalist Tony Velasquez will anchor the noontime newscast “Headline Pilipinas” on DZMM TeleRadyo.

DZMM, ABS-CBN’s flagship AM radio station, continues to revolutionize its delivery of news with the launch of the noontime national newscast “Headline Pilipinas” on Monday (October 10), 12:30pm, that will air exclusively on DZMM TeleRadyo on cable and ABS-CBNTVplus.

The announcement came as a welcome surprise during the station’s 30^th anniversary celebration held at the Marriott Grand Ballroom in Pasay City early this week that was attended by past and present anchors, reporters, and employees of DZMM 630, which was established in 1986 at the end of Martial Law.

“Headline Pilipinas,” a stand-alone program on TeleRadyo, DZMM’s news channel on television, will be helmed by veteran broadcast journalist Tony Velasquez, who together with ABS-CBN Cebu’s Leo Lastimosa and ABS-CBN Davao’s Melanie Severino will deliver the latest and most relevant news gathered from all over the country, giving voice to Filipinos from different regions across the country.

ABS-CBN Integrated News & Current Affairs head Ging Reyes said this is just a part of DZMM’s continuous evolution to keep Filipinos updated on things that matter to them, to  help them make informed decisions in their day-to-day lives.

“We are building upon the gains of Teleradyo by transforming it into a nationwide platform.  This way, DZMM continues to be relevant to our news audiences. Expect stronger programming, more current affairs content, and a fusion of style and substance that will continue to improve as technology evolves and as we become more and more present in the digital space,” she said.

ABS-CBN Integrated News & Current Affairs head Ging Reyes with DZMM anchors Kabayan Noli De Castro, Gretchen Fullido, and Ted Failon at the 30th anniversary celebration of DZMM at the Marriott Grand Ballroom last Tuesday, October 4.

Reyes led a “who’s who” list of attendees to the station’s anniversary party, which featured production numbers by singers Jona, Morissette, Kyla, Imelda Papin, Rico J. Puno, Darren Espanto, Arnel Pineda, Noel Cabangon, Jed Madela and actor Piolo Pascual, who sang in DZMM’s latest station ID. DZMM anchors Doris Bigornia, Gerry Baja, Anthony Taberna, DJ Richard, Carl Balita, Marc Logan, Gus Abelgas, and Kabayan Noli De Castro also showcased their singing talent while Radyo Patrol Reporters like Angel Movido, Robert Mano and Raya Capulong danced to the hits of the ‘80s to the present, with anchors Nina Corpuz, Atty. Claire Castro, Maresciel Yao, Toni Aquino, Jasmin Romero, Neil Badion, DJ Chacha, DJ Bea, Gretchen Fullido, and Ahwel Paz.

DZMM anchors Carl Balita, Anthony Taberna, Gerry Baja, and DJ Richard showcase their singing prowess to entertain fellow anchors, reporters, and employees of DZMM in the past three decades.

ABS-CBN president and chief executive officer Carlo Katigbak stressed the station’s strong commitment to public service, a core value of the news organization.

“We have two larger goals, the first is to stay relevant to our audience and continue to deliver useful information that matter to them by the people that matter to them. Our second goal is to fulfill our mission to be in the service of the Filipino people. It means we’re not just journalists and nation builders. We are also advocates that champion the causes that are closest to our values as an organization. It means that we need to help find solutions to the problems that we discuss on air,” Katigbak said, after highlighting DZMM’s many public service programs, including the Teaching Learning Caring (TLC) classroom and clinic-on-wheels that served victims of calamities in the past years.

Other ABS-CBN executives also paid tribute to the men and women who contributed in making DZMM the number one AM radio station in Mega Manila, and TeleRadyo as the number one Filipino news channel on cable.

Charo Santos-Concio, host of “MMK sa DZMM” and ABS-CBN Chief Content Officer said, “Maraming dapat ipagdiwang at ipagsalamat kagaya ng inyong husay, sipag, at tibay sa loob ng 30 taon na siyang dahilan bakit patuloy na nagbabaga ang tungkulin nating magsilbi at tumulong sa ating kapamilya.”

Overall, the show will be helping people get linked to proper government agencies that can best help or respond to their concerns swiftly and efficiently. The program will also have on-ground public service activities in the future.

Get to know the new tandem in public service – Julius Babao and Bernadette Sembrano – on “Lingkod Kapamilya sa DZMM,”  Monday to Friday, 11am on DZMM Radyo Patrol 630 on AM radio, on DZMM TeleRadyo on cable and ABS-CBN TVplus, and online via livestreaming on www.dzmm.com.ph.

Napuno ng tuwa at pag-asa ang isang covered court sa Barangay Sta. Ana sa Pateros kung saan ginanap ang kauna-unahang “DZMM Kapamilya Day” noong Biyernes (March 10) bilang pagdiriwang ng ika-10 taon sa telebisyon ng DZMM TeleRadyo ngayong 2017.

Sa unang arangkada ng proyekto, live na isinagawa nina Julius Babao at Bernadette Sembrano ang kanilang programang “Lingkod Kapamilya sa DZMM” sa barangay, kung saan nakahingi ng tulong ang mga taong may panawagan at malubhang pangangailangan. Bago ito ay nagbigay din ang DZMM ng blowout para sa mga may kaarawan, livelihood seminar, at para sa pagkakatong ito, isang medical mission para sa mga dumalo, na nakakuwentuhan din ng mga anchor.

Isa sa mga benepisaryo ng libreng gamot at konsultasyon noong DZMM Kapamilya Day si Myrna Alire, isang nanay na may diabetes at mild heart condition. Bukod sa natugunan ang kanyang pangangailangan sa kalusugan, ikinagalak din niya ang makilala ang mga anchor na kanyang napapanood o napapakinggan lang dati.

“Masayang-masayang masaya ako! Lalo na nung nayakap ko si Bernadette. Tuwang-Tuwa ako at saka nagpapasalamat ako na nakarating kayo dito at nabigyan din ako ng gamot.” aniya ni Nanay Myrna.

Bukod sa kanya, aabot sa 200 ang iba pang naserbisyuhan ng DZMM kaagapay ang volunteer doctors ng Sagip Bayan-St. Luke’s Medical Center, habang ang ilan ay nabigyan din ng wheelchair o nebulizer.

Malaking bagay din sa mga dumalo ang seminar sa paggawa ng tocino, na kanilang maaaring pagkakitaan. Limampung residenteng nagdiriwang ng kaarawan naman tulad ng DZMM TeleRadyo ang binigyan din ng regalo.

Labis-labis naman ang pasasalamat ng alkalde ng Pateros na si Miguel Ponce III at ni Barangay Captain Benny Santinida sa DZMM dahil sa pagbisita nito sa Sta. Ana para sa DZMM Kapamilya Day.

“Napakaimportante nito dahil maraming natulungang Kapamilya at mayroon tayong nabigay na solusyon agad-agad,” pahayag ni Santinidad.

Bukod kina Julius at Bernadette, naroon din sina Radyo Patrol reporter Raya Capulong at “Mismo” anchor Ahwel Paz upang maghatid ng balita at saya sa mga taga-Pateros. Tuloy ang pagbisita at pagdala ng balita at serbisyo ng pinakabagong public service project ng DZMM Kapamilya Day ngayong Biyernes (March 17), kasama naman sina Gerry Baja at Anthony Taberna ng programang “Dos Por Dos” sa Lungsod ng Pasay.

Abangan kung saan tatahak ang “DZMM Kapamilya Day” sa mga susunod pang Biyernes sa pagpapatuloy ng ika-10 anibersaryo sa telebisyon ng himpilang “Una sa Balita. Una sa Public Service.” Tumutok sa DZMM 630 sa AM radio of DZMM TeleRadyo sa cable at ABS-CBNTVplus para sa karagdagang impormasyon, o kaya’y sundan ang @DZMMTeleRadyo sa Facebook o Twitter.

DZMM TeleRadyo turns 10

JULIUS AND BERNADETTE, BRING JOY AND PUBLIC SERVICE

IN FIRST “DZMM KAPAMILYA DAY”

Hope and joy filled a covered court in Barangay Sta. Ana, Pateros where DZMM, the flagship AM radio station of ABS-CBN, recently held the first “DZMM Kapamilya Day,” in celebration of DZMM TeleRadyo’s 10^th year on television this 2017.

In the first leg, Julius Babao and Bernadette Sembrano brought their “Lingkod Kapamilya sa DZMM” program on location, enabling residents to ask for help and assistance through the show. Before going live on-air, they were also able to bond with the people, who enjoyed the livelihood seminar and birthday blowout prepared by DZMM.

As an added offering, DZMM also had a medical mission for its first Kapamilya Day, and one of those who received free medicines and medical consultation was Myrna Alire, a diabetic mother with a mild heart condition. Aside from the free check-up she received, she was also grateful for the chance to see and meet the anchors she would only watch on TV or hear on the radio.

“I’m just really so happy! Especially when I got the chance to hug Bernadette, I’m just very thankful that ABS-CBN was able to come here, and I was able to get free medicine,” Nanay Myrna shared.

Around 200 people lined up for the medical mission that was done in partnership with volunteer doctors from Sagip Bayan-St. Luke’s Medical Center. Others, meanwhile, were also able to get free wheelchairs and nebulizers. People also learned a new source of income after attending the seminar on tocino-making. To complete the family day experience, those celebrating their birthdays like DZMM TeleRadyo were also given gifts.

Pateros mayor Miguel Ponce III and Barangay Captain Benny Santinidad expressed their gratitude to DZMM for choosing Sta. Ana as the first stop of the “DZMM Kapamilya Day.”

“This is very important because many Kapamilyas got assistance and we were able to give solutions immediately,” Santinidad said.

Radyo Patrol reporter Raya Capulong and “Mismo” anchor Ahwel Paz were also present to give news and entertainment to the people of Pateros. DZMM, which just celebrated 30 years on-air last year, will continue its delivery of news and public service to the barangays on the next legs of “DZMM Kapamilya Day.” This Friday (March 17), Gerry Baja and Anthony Taberna of “Dos Por Dos” will be visiting Pasay City.

Watch out for the next “DZMM Kapamilya Day” in the coming Fridays as DZMM continues its celebration of 10 years of DZMM TeleRadyo. Stay tuned to DZMM 630 on AM radio or DZMM TeleRadyo on cable and ABS-CBNTVplus. For follow @DZMMTeleRadyo on Facebook and Twitter.

About DZMM

DZMM Radyo Patrol 630 is the flagship AM radio station of ABS-CBN, the leading media and entertainment company in the Philippines. With a slogan “Una Sa Balita, Una sa Public Service” (First in News, First in Public Service), DZMM has been delivering breaking news, extensive news coverage, hard-hitting radio commentary, and various public service projects and programs for the benefit of Filipinos worldwide for already three decades. In 2007, DZMM launched TeleRadyo, the first to simulcast radio programs on cable television in the Philippines. Currently, DZMM TeleRadyo is the country’s most watched news and information channel on cable TV, offering a unique programming of DZMM radio shows and ABS-CBN content. It is also available in different parts of the country via SKYcable, Destiny TV, and on various local cable providers; on digital television via ABS-CBN TVplus; and overseas via TFC, the Filipino Channel and TFC.tv. It can also be streamed at www.dzmm.com.ph.

As he would every weekday, broadcast journalist Ted Failon reported for boardwork ‪at 8am last March 31 for his program “Failon Ngayon” on DZMM radio and TeleRadyo. The only – and big – difference in his routine that day was he and co-anchor DJ Chacha were not delivering and discussing the morning’s biggest news and issues inside a radio booth. Instead, they are in the heart of Brgy. San Dionisio in Parañaque City, face-to-face with the station’s loyal listeners and viewers in the community.

Ted and Chacha were there for the fourth leg of “DZMM Kapamilya Day,” the AM radio station’s latest offering that will tour different barangays in Metro and Mega Manila to bring joy and public service to Filipinos in celebration of the 10^th year of DZMM TeleRadyo on television.

Julius Babao and Bernadette Sembrano’s “Lingkod Kapamilya sa DZMM” kicked-off the caravan last March 10 at Barangay Sta. Ana, Pateros, whose residents were able to air their concerns, and benefited from DZMM TLC’s medical mission.

A major part of “DZMM Kapamilya Day” is to bring a DZMM program to a barangay and air it live via satellite. This allows the anchors to bond and interact with more Kapamilyas, and focus on the specific concerns in their communities.

“Dos Por Dos” partners Anthony Taberna and Gerry Baja gamely listened to sentiments of residents at Brgy. 162, Pasay City over chichirya in front of a local sari-sari store last March 17. Meanwhile, in the event’s third leg at Brgy. Molino 2, Bacoor, Cavite last March 24, “Pasada Sais Trenta” anchors Karen Davila and Vic Lima tackled the traffic problems of the province, and helped provide immediate solutions by organizing a sit-down between the local government, the Cavite Road Safety Division, and local PUV drivers.

“Pumunta tayo dito para makialam at tumulong na makarating sa mga kinauukulan sa provincial and even national level (ang problema ng mga tao dito sa trapiko). Kaya kami sa DZMM ay umaasa na sana magpatuloy ang DZMM Kapamilya Day mula dito sa Luzon hanggang sa Visayas at Mindanao,” said Vic de Leon Lima.

DZMM’s bonding with the people would continue off the air, as it conducted a special program in every community with Zumba sessions and parlor games led by “Mismo” anchor Ahwel Paz. Moreover, various public service activities were held like medical mission and livelihood seminars. To add excitement, residents celebrating birthdays were given a special treat and raffle prizes were drawn.

“Importante na makita natin sila at malaman ang problema nila at malaman nila na mahal natin sila,” according to Karen Davila.

DZMM will continue bringing the Kapamilya brand of genuine public service and heartfelt ‘malasakit’ to Filipinos with “DZMM Kapamilya Day” heading to more barangays until June.

For news and public service, stay tuned to DZMM 630 on AM radio or DZMM TeleRadyo on cable TV and ABS-CBN TVplus. For updates, follow @DZMMTeleRadyo on Twitter and Facebook.

Mula sa radio booth hanggang sa mga baranggay

DZMM ANCHORS NAGHATID NG KAPAMILYA PUBLIC SERVICE
SA MGA KOMUNIDAD

Katulad ng ginagawa nya araw-araw, nagbalita para sa kanyang boardwork ng bandang alas-otso ng umaga si Ted Failon noong Marso 31 para sa kanyang programang “Failon Ngayon” sa DZMM TeleRadyo. Ang pagkakaiba lang, hindi sila sa loob ng radio booth naghahatid ng serbisyo ng co-anchor na si DJ Chacha. Sa halip ay nasa Brgy. San Dionisio sa Parañaque City sila at kasalamuha ang mga masusugid na tagapanood at tagapkinig ng himpilan sa komunidad.

Sila Ted at Chaha ang pang-apat na umarangkada sa “DZMM Kapamilya Day” na kasalukuyang proyekto ng AM radio station na maglilibot sa iba’t-ibang barangay sa Metro Manila at Mega Manila upang makapaghatid ng saya at public service sa mga Pilipino para sa ika-sampung anibersaryo sa telebisyon ng DZMM Teleradyo.

Una nang umarangkada sila Julius Babao at Bernadette Sembrano noong Marso 10 sa Sta. Ana, Pateros upang malaman ang mga saloobin at mga kinakailangan na tulong medikal ng mga residente ng lugar sa kanilang programang “Lingkod Kapamilya sa DZMM.”

Sa “DZMM Kapamilya Day,” mas personal na naihahatid ng mga anchor ang mga balita at public service at nakakapag-pokus sa mga komunidad, dahil doon mismo nila isinasagawa ang mga programa na ineere sa TV at radyo live via satellite. Ang “Dos Por Dos” partners na sina Anthony Taberna at Gerry Baja nga, sa harap ng isang sari-sari store sa Brgy. 162 sa Pasay City ginawa ang kanilang mga panayam at kasamang kumain ng chichirya ang mga residente noong Marso 17.

Layunin ng DZMM na bigyang atensyon din ang mga dapat aksyunan sa mga binibisitang komunidad.  Sa Brgy. Molino 2, Bacoor, Cavite noong Marso 24, pinag-usapan ang problemang pang-trapiko ng probinsya nina Karen Davila at Vic Lima sa “Pasada Sais Trenta.”  Dito agad-agad natugunan ang problema sa pagtatagpo ng lokal na gobyerno, ang Cavite Road Safety Division, at ng mga lokal na PUV drivers sa programa.

“Pumunta tayo dito para makialam at tumulong na makarating sa mga kinauukulan sa provincial and even national level (ang problema ng mga tao dito sa trapiko). Kaya kami sa DZMM ay umaasa na sana magpatuloy ang DZMM Kapamilya Day mula dito sa Luzon hanggang sa Visayas at Mindanao,” ani ni Vic de Leon Lima.

Bukod pa riyan, hatid ng DZMM ang iba pang bonding activities para sa mga Kapamilya. May Zumba sessions at pa-parlor games na pinagungunahan ni “Mismo” anchor Ahwel Paz. At sa bawat lugar, may public service na hatid ang himpilan, kagaya ng medical mission sa Pateros, livelihood seminars para mapagkakitaan ng mga residente tulad ng tocino-making, massage services, at iba’t-iba pang mga ideyang pang-negosyo. Kaabang-abang din ang mga papremyong na pinamimigay at ang birthday blowout para sa mga residenteng may kaarawan.

Habang masaya ang mga taong kumuha ng litrato kasama ng mga paboritong brodkaster, tuwang-tuwa rin ang mga anchor sa pagkakataong makasama ang mga tagapakinig at tagapanood ng DZMM. “Importante na makita natin sila at malaman ang problema nila at malaman nila na mahal natin sila,” ani ni Karen Davila.

Patuloy na maghahatid ng tulong at public service sa mga Kapamilya ang “DZMM Kapamilya Day” upang maipadama ang taos-pusong malasakit at pasasalamat. Mas madaming baranggay pa ang makakadaupang-palad ng himpilan hanggang Hunyo. Para sa balita at public service, tumutok sa DZMM 630 sa AM radio at DZMM TeleRadyo sa cable at ABS-CBNTVplus.

The Top 10 contestants (in no particular order) vying for chance to be part of the global representatives to the grand showdown at Tawag ng Tanghalan sa “It’s Showtime” this December 2017.

From an iconic singing competition that became the staple of every Philippine household’s afternoon radio listening and eventually TV viewing for nearly two decades since 1953, “Tawag ng Tanghalan (Call of the Stage)” continues its symphony as the Philippines’ all-time favorite search for outstanding amateur talent, to date.  As the latest revival at top-rating variety show “It’s Showtime” continues the tradition of providing the platform for singers with nary a professional exposure but with a gamut of talent, ABS-CBN and The Filipino Channel (TFC) take it even further as they bring the tour de force that is Tawag ng Tangalan globally.

After a good turnout of Filipino amateur singers who could very well be professional performers themselves, at the launches in June in North America, Asia and Europe, anticipation is high this quarter as the region finals begin, starting in Europe this September 17 at the Halle E + G MuseumsQuartier, Museumsplatz 1, 1070 Wien, Austria.

In mid-September, ABS-CBN, TFC and DZMM’s Global Pinoy Singing Idol, will pit the best of the best from the continent — performers who garnered the highest judges’ scores and online votes:

• Bernardite Steiger is a Filipina married to an Austrian in Wien who once dreamt of becoming a famous singer but first parked her dream to help her family and then to raise her own, next. Now, she is taking chances to fulfill her dream once again
• Louise Denciv Auman was born and raised in Wien, Austria. Before joining Global Tawag ng Tanghalan, she had been in fact, a youtuber who had her own channel of uploads.  She has then become inactive because of work.  Now with Global Tawag ng Tanghalan it seems that she is up for a revival.
• Austrian born and raised Annabel Hernandez had also been part of the Austrian music industry even before joining but had to postpone for her studies. Now she returns to try to make her mark once again.
• Fellow Austrian-born Rinnalyn Silang’s entry into Tawag ng Tanghalan is accidental. Originally just a companion of friend who vied for a slot, she went on to shine on her own.  Now, she is continuing the battle to win for her friend.
• Geraldine Marsak-Lopez of Vienna, Austria has a unique story to tell. Her left thyroid had been removed and there continues a chance for her to lose her voice. So, before she possibly loses it, she sent her video to Global Tawag ng Tanghalan and the rest, they say is history.
• Paris, France-based Marnelli Oliva was originally from Bulacan in Luzon Philippines.  Her voice is as sweet as the delights for which her province is known.  She is set to prove she is a talent to reckon, proud to represent her province and to dedicate her performance to her mother.
• Alexandra Yatco of Varby Gard, Sweden is perhaps the youngest in the group but she can prove that age is not a deterrent to one’s pursuit of talent. In fact, she was also beset with health problems that forced her to stop schooling. However, she is proud to have turned her time off from school into an opportunity to learn the guitar.
• Marlita Schon of Stockhom, Sweden has a unique motivation for joining — to be able to help poor children in her community. If she wins the Region Finals, she hopes to use the prizes for her MSJ Foundation.
• Joy Bautista of Madrid, Spain was a teacher before she first set foot in Europe as an au pair (defined by the Commission on Filipinos Overseas as a young, unmarried Filipino without children who is placed under a cultural exchange arrangement with a European host family for a maximum period of time).  Driven by her sister, she pursued a life in Spain.  Wherever life takes her, she brings her music everywhere she goes, even at church.
• Arnold Soria of Madrid, Spain is adopted and was raised by his aunt and uncle like he was their own. Soria draws emotion from this and his experience as an overseas Filipino in his songs which he offers for people he considers his family in the Philippines.

Known for the Filipino wealth in talent and this line-up, both judges and voters will face the toughest challenge yet — identify who will be the first Global Tawag ng Tanghalan representatives from Europe.

These contestants face the challenge of becoming the first global representative and the second grand champion following the footsteps of Tawag ng Tanghalan greats that include Superstar Nora Aunor, Perry Como of the Philippines Diomedes Maturan and director Bobot Mortiz.

Judges include ABS-CBN Integrated News Head Ging Reyes; Toolstation Chief Finance Officer Alfonso Pinto and ABS-CBN Europe Ltd. Officer-in-Charge (OIC) Luis Bariuan.

Two winners will be declared winners and will flown in to represent Europe and compete with other regional finalists in the global showdown happening at the “It’s Showtime” studios in Manila on December 2017.  

Meantime, paying tribute to the Filipino talents are two iconic artists: Rockoustic Princess and Tawag ng Tanghalan sa It’s Showtime hurado (judge) Yeng Constantino and multi-faceted actor, athlete and singer Matteo Guidicelli, in song.

“Tawag ng Tanghalan” patuloy na nagbibigay kasiyahan at inspirasyon mula noon hanggang ngayon, mula Pilipinas at sa ibang bansa
Kauna-unahang Global Tawag ng Tanghalan sa “It’s Showtime” regional finals maguumpisa na, simula sa Austria sa September 17; pinakamagagaling na singers sa Europe, magtatagisan na

Mula sa pagiging pinakapaboritong search para sa outstanding amateur talent noong dekada ’50, patuloy pa ring inaabangan ang “Tawag ng Tanghalan” sa pagbibigay nito ng pagkakataon para sa mga di pa kilala ngunit hitik sa talent na mga Filipino singers.  Nagsimula sa radyo at umabot sa telebisyon, patuloy ang pag-level up ng pagbibigay-saya at inspirasyon ng pamosong kompetisyon dahil mula sa Pilipinas via “It’s Showtime, may global version na ito via The Filipino Channel (TFC).

Matapos ang matagumpay na pagbubukas ng global search noong mid-June inaabangan na ngayon ang napipintong tagisan ng mga winners sa regional finals na gaganapin sa bawat kontinente, simula sa Europe na magaganap sa Septmber 17 sa Halle E + G MuseumsQuartier, Museumsplatz 1, 1070 Wien, Austria.

Sa Europe regional finals na isasagawa ng TFC sa pakikipagtulungan ng DZMM Pinoy Singing Idol, magtatapat ang sampung finalists mula sa iba’t-ibang parte ng kontinete, para sa pagkakataong maging kauna-unahang global representative at nang magloan ay magkaroon ng pagkakataong maging ikalawang Tawag ng Tanghalan Grand Champion.

Matindi ang pamantayang una nang nilatag ng mga produkto ng iconic competition mula kay Superstar Nora Aunor hanggang sa Perry Como of the Philippines na si Diomedes Maturan at kabilang pa si Direk Bobot Mortiz.  Dahil dito, todo ang preparasyon at pati na rin excitement ng sampung finalists na iba’t iba ang pinangagalingan.

Ngayon pa lang ay excited na si Bernardite Steiger, isang Filipina na nakapangasawa ng isang Austrian dahil ito na ang pagkakataon niyang maging pamosong singer — isang panaginip na isinantabi para sa pamilya at para bumuo ng sarili niyang pamilya.

Natigil din ang pangarap ng Austria-born and raised na si Annabel Hernandez.  Sa kaniyang kabataan, bahagi na siya ng Austrian music industry ngunit dahil sa trabaho ay natigil ito.  Ngayon, siya ay nagbabalik sa kaniyang industriyang kinalakihan.

Isang youtuber naman ang isa pang Austria-born and raised na si Louise Denciv Auman.  Dahil sa trabaho, natigil siya sa pag-upload ng video pero ngayon, mukhang magkakaroon ito ng motibo para balikan ang naiwang mundo.

Kakaiba naman ang inspirasyon ng Austrian-born na si Rinnalyn Silang.  Noong una ay sinamahan lamang ang kaibigan sa audition ngunit naging regional finalist nang kalaunan.   Ngayon, itinutuloy niya ang laban para sa kaibigan.

Nakaka-inspire naman ang ipinaglalaban ni Geraldine Marsak-Lopez ng Vienna, Austria.  Noong July 2017 tinanggal ang kaniyang kaliwang thyroid at nanganganib itong mawala. Bago pa ito tuluyang mawala, nagdesisyon siyang ipadala ang kaniyang video sa Global Tawag ng Tanghalan.

Tubong Bulacan naman si Marnelli Oliva ng Paris, France.  Tulad nang tamis ng mga sweets kung saan nakilala ang kaniyang home province, kasing tamis din ang boses at ngiti ng dalaga. Ngayong Global Tawag ng Tanghalan Region Finals, papatunayan ng dalaga na karapat-dapat siyang maging bahagi ng global showdown sa Manila. Inaalay niya ang kaniyang performance sa mga kababayan at sa mga magulang.

Matindi naman ang inspirasyon ni Marlita Schon ng Stockhom, Sweden para manalo — ang mga batang mahihirap.  Kapag nananalo siya, popondohan niya ang kaniyang foundation para sa mga bata –ang MJS Foundation na hango sa kaniyang initals.

Isa sa pinakabata sa grupo si Alexandra Yatco ng Varby Gard, Sweden. Ngunit bata man siya, ipapakita niyang hindi balakid ang edad sa tagumpay na matatamasa ng isang singer. Sa katunayan, nasadlak sa isang health condition noong bata na nakapagpatigil sa kaniyang magaral ngunit ginamit niya itong motivation para magdagdag kaalaman, partikular sa pagigitara.

Isa pang young Filipino ang kabilang sa region finals — Joy Bautista ng Madrid, Spain.  Teacher siya sa Pilipinas na nagpunta sa Europa bilang au pair (ayon sa Commission on Filipinos Overseas ay isang young, unmarried na Filipino na walang anak at nakapaloob sa isang cultural exchange arrangement sa isang European host family sa loob ng isang particular period of time).  Ngayon, hudyat ng kaniyang kapatid, ay tumuloy na siya pagsimula ulit sa Spain.  Nalipat man siya, dala-dala niya ang hilig sa musika at pagawit.

Dala naman ng experience niya sa pamilya, gamit ito ni Arnold Soria ng Madrid, Spain sa bawat performance. Pinalaki ng kaniyang tito at tita na para bang siya ay tunay na kanila kaya naman inaaalay niya ang bawat tagumpay sa tinuturing na pangalawang magulang.

Dahil sa pambihirang anking talento ng mga finalists, pati na rin ang kanilang pinanggagalingan, tiyak ang mga judges na haharap sila sa isang matinding pagsubok.

Kabilang sa judges na ito sina ABS-CBN Integrated News Head Ging Reyes; Toolstation Chief Finance Officer Alfonso Pinto at ABS-CBN Europe Ltd. Officer-in-Charge (OIC) Luis Bariuan.

Samantala, magbibigay-pugay rin ang Kapamilya celebrities tulad nina: Rockoustic Princess at Tawag ng Tanghalan sa “It’s Showtime” hurado na si Yeng Constantino at multi-faceted actor, athlete and singer Matteo Guidicelli.

Inaanyayahan ang mga supporters ng region finalists na sumuporta.  Mabibili ang tickets sa FORTEPINO At Your Service ni Aries Fortuna sa telephone no. ‎06763573492; Andrea Dano Gomes na may tel. no. na +436764667844; Pinoyloading mula Schellhammergasse 22; Adel Calanog sa tel. no. 0676 56 11162; Sunshine Hair Salon sa Heine Strasse 42 1020 Vienna in Austria na may tel. no. +43 5322653; at Marizel Rojas sa numerong + 43 699 14596190.

Samantala, may special privileges ang VIP ticket holders tulad ng tsansang makakuha ng  photo opportunity kasama ang celebrity guests at makasama ang surprise guests para sa pre-event cocktails. Ang tickets ay nagkakahalagang €50 samantalang ang General Admission ay nasa €25.  Magbubukas ang gates open ng 1 p.m. at magissimula ang show ng 3:00 p.m.

With ten years of experience covering crime, disasters, and armed conflicts, ABS-CBN journalist Jeff Canoy fits in perfectly as the new anchor of the three-year old ABS-CBN current affairs program “Red Alert.”

In the past weeks, we finally got to see him dive into his new mission of promoting public safety and emergency-preparedness to Filipinos as he tackled timely issues of flashfloods, hazing, and gun-related violence.

Now that we will be seeing him more often (“Red Alert” airs every Wednesday after “Bandila”) let’s get to know him better.

Here are seven fun facts about new “Red Alert” anchor Jeff Canoy:

1)   He is a Blue Eagle

Jeff was an AB Communication major at the Ateneo de Manila University.

Jeff Canoy took up AB Communication at the Ateneo de Manila University. Up to this day, he still cherishes the values he learned from Ateneo. Proof? His greatest goal in life other than to be a good journalist is to be a better man for others, very much in tune with Ateneo’s teachings as well as with ABS-CBN’s mission and vision to be in the service of the Filipino.

2) He co-founded an independent student paper

Before learning how to report and write, Jeff was first into graphics design. He joined “The Guidon,” the official student newspaper of the Ateneo, as one of the layout crew. A year later, he got together with other student journalists who wanted to do more for reportage on campus. They started their own publication, KATIPUNAN magazine, where they did some solid reporting on issues beyond campus while raising funds on the side for the printing of the newspaper.

3. He is a travel nut

Jeff has been to over 27 countries.

Being a journalist has brought Jeff to places for out-of-town coverage but he rarely gets to look around because of his work. Hence, he goes on his own adventures where he does not have to think about news. Jeff has gone to over 27 countries all over the world. His favorite destination so far? Israel, because of the powerful experience he had in the capital city of Jerusalem. Craziest thing done while on vacation? He said, he once swam with elephants while on vacation in Laos.

4. He was an ABS-CBN News intern

Jeff was an ABS-CBN News intern back in 2006.

Jeff started out as an intern for ABS-CBN back in 2006 and was assigned to be at the news desk to do usual OJT stuff like photocopying documents and filing press releases from different agencies. Things drastically changed when one of the bosses then told him to shadow reporters on the field to get a real sense of what they do. One of the reporters was the legendary Gus Abelgas.

5. He always had an affinity for disaster coverage

Jeff finds covering disasters a chance to help people get their stories heard.

Jeff said covering disasters both excites him and satisfies his desire to help. “There’s something about being on the ground, talking to the people affected by disasters and making sure that you do right by them by producing a piece that truthfully captures their narrative. In that moment, you’re more that just a reporter of events. You’re a witness to the stories of these people. They trusted you with their voice. You have to make sure that the story you write reflects what they feel, what they need and what the rest of the country can do to help them,” he said.

6. The song “Bro, Ikaw ang Star ng Pasko!” once made him cry

An ABS-CBN Christmas theme song once made him cry.

In 2011, during the aftermath of Bagyong Sendong, Jeff spent his first Christmas away from his family and friends in an evacuation center in Iligan. He recalled that when someone suddenly played the popular ABS-CBN Christmas Station ID theme, the evacuees started gathering together and singing the song in unison. Jeff and his crew could not stop tears from falling as they witness that special moment during a very depressing time.

7. He has gone through many “Red Alert” moments

Jeff has experienced many red alert moments at work.

Jeff said he was carried away by strong winds and flashfloods before during a coverage. He has experienced running away from an erupting volcano. He had to stay in a safe house because of death threats. And more recently in Marawi, they almost got hit when enemies opened fire on the building they were staying in. Jeff said reporters have the tendency to feel a false sense of invincibility on the field. But he credits the training given to them by ABS-CBN on what to do in in hostile environments and dangerous situations. “Parati naming baon ‘yung mantra na no story is worth dying for. We always hope for the best. But it’s also important that we prepare for the worst,” he said.

Halloween is not complete without veteran broadcaster Noli De Castro’s “Kababalaghan” TV special and this year, “Kabayan” promises four stories that will bring friends and families together for a good scare this Sunday afternoon (October 29) after “Banana Sundae” and once again after “Gandang Gabi Vice” on ABS-CBN.

The first story involves veteran TV host Cory Quirino, who experience being haunted by a spirit living inside an antique Bu-lul fertility idol that her then husband brought to their home. She and their househelp started to feel eerie around the house until a dark and creepy creature finally appeared before them and spoke to them.

The second story is about a woman who practiced witchcraft and was possessed by many demons. She was able to hide her identity and even served as a choir member, until a priest came to visit their church and felt that an evil presence is entering her again. This led to the woman revealing her past where she admitted to have hurt and killed many people using her powers.

In the third story, “Kabayan” will take us to the old Clark Air Base hospital, which has been a popular destination for ghost-hunting. Built in the ‘60s, the facility treated wounded American soldiers who fought in the Vietnam war. Up to this day, the spirits of those who did not make it continue to haunt the abandoned hospital.

To wrap up this year’s “Kababalaghan” special, “Kabayan” will also visit the old house in Sta. Mesa, Manila where lost souls are said to be staying. The family renting the worn down house said they have experienced many scary instances that prove they are not alone in their home. Even the neighbors have attested to seeing ghosts and even elementals in the building beside the haunted house.

Find out the stories behind the scary experiences of these Kapamilyas and witness what action was done to bring back peace in their lives on Noli De Castro’s “Kababalaghan” special this Sunday afternoon (October 29) after “Banana Sundae” and once again after “Gandang Gabi Vice” on ABS-CBN and ABS-CBN HD.

TV host Cory Quirino, nabiktima ng masamang ispirito

SAMAHAN ANG PAGBABALIK NI NOLI DE CASTRO PARA SA MGA KWENTONG “KABABALAGHAN”

Hindi makukumpleto ang Halloween kung wala ang nakaugaliang tradisyong Kapamilya na “Kababalaghan” TV special ni “Kabayan” Noli De Castro. Ngayong taon, apat na kwentong siguradong magbibigay ng katatakutan sa mga manonood sa darating na Linggo (Oktubre 29) pagkatapos ng “Banana Sundae” sa hapon at pagkatapos ng “Gandang Gabi Vice” naman sa gabi sa ABS-CBN.

Tampok sa unang kwento ang beteranang TV host na si Cory Quirino na ginulo ng masamang ispiritong naninirahan sa antigong Bu-lul fertility idol na inuwi ng noon ay asawa niya. Simula nang madala ang idol sa kanilang bahay, nakaramdam na sila ng kakaiba at tumindi pa ang kanilang takot nang minsang magpakita at magsalita ang itim na nilalang mula sa Bul-lul.

Ang pangalawang kwento ay tungkol sa isang babaeng may itinatagong madilim na nakaraan. Isang choir member sa simbahan si Alice nang minsan ay maramdaman ng isang bumibisitang pari na may pumapasok sa kaniyang masamang espiritu. Doon na siya napapayag na magpa-exorcise para mailabas ang mga demonyo sa kanyang katawan. Dito na rin niya inamin na siya ay dating mangkukulam na marami nang nasaktan at napatay dati gamit ang kanyang kapangyarihan.

Sa pangatlong kwento ay dadalhin tayo ni Kabayan sa ospital ng Clark Air Base na sikat puntahan ng mga gustong maghanap ng multo. Unang itinayo ang ospital noong ‘60s para sa mga Amerikanong sundalong nakipaglaban sa giyera sa Vietnam. Hanggang ngayon ay naglipana pa rin ang mga kaluluwa ng mga yumaong sugatan sa ospital.

Sa pang-apat na kwentong “Kababalaghan” naman, bumisita si “Kabayan” sa isang lumang bahay sa Sta. Mesa kung saan nagkalat daw ang mga ligaw na kaluluwa. Ang pamilyang naguupa mismo sa lumang bahay at kanilang mga kapitbahay ang nagpatotoo sa mga nakakatakot at hindi maipaliwanag na mga pangyayari doon, pati na ang pagpapakita ng kaluluwa at maging lamang-lupa sa katabing gusali ng bahay.

Alamin ang mga kwento sa likod ng mga nakakatakot na karanasan ng ilang Kapamilya at kung ano ang ginawang paraan upang maibalik ang katahimikan sa kanilang mga buhay sa “Kababalaghan” special ni “Kabayan” Noli De Castro sa Linggo (Oktubre 29) pagkatapos ng “Banana Sundae” sa hapon at pagkatapos ng “Gandang Gabi Vice” naman sa gabi sa ABS-CBN.

Candice Santos and Shaira Garrido bested other talented Filipino singers in Canada to advance to the GPSI grand finals.

DZMM Radyo Patrol 630, “Umagang Kay Ganda,” (UKG) and “TV Patrol” (TVP) put on a show for overseas Filipinos in Ontario, Canada last November 18 in celebration of DZMM TeleRadyo and UKG’s 10^th anniversary and 30 years of TVP.

Dubbed as “Gabi ng Pasasalamat: A Thanksgiving Show” the event featured iconic DZMM and TVP anchor Noli “Kabayan” De Castro, UKG anchor Winnie Cordero, DZMM anchor Ahwel Paz, TFC Adobo Nation anchor Ginger Conejero, Queen of Soul Jaya, and Kapamilya actor Xian Lim.

It also showcased the wit, heart, and talent of Filipinos abroad with the contenders in UKG’s “Nanay Kong Kay Ganda” and DZMM’s “Global Pinoy Singing Idol” (GPSI) taking the stage. “Nanay Kong Kay Ganda” is UKG’s search for outstanding Filipino mothers, which will also go to Hong Kong this month. GPSI, meanwhile, is DZMM’s long-running talent show for overseas Filipinos that will have its grand finals in February 2018.

DZMM station manager Marah Capuyan shared that the show, which is a collaboration between ABS-CBN News and TFC, the Filipino Channel, received a very warm reception from Filipinos abroad, some of them even coming from outside Ontario.

“We are very happy to be able to celebrate these major milestones with our Kapamilyas overseas. The fact that they took time – and for some traveled far – to be with us, warms our heart and inspires us even more to deliver to them news and public service through DZMM, UKG, TV Patrol, and other ABS-CBN News platforms,” she said.

Meanwhile, here in the Philippines, DZMM Radyo Patrol 630 continues to top the Metro Manila AM radio survey according to Kantar Media. In its survey conducted last September 22 to 28, DZMM garnered an audience share of 31%, well ahead of DZBB Super Radyo with 21% and DZXL RMN Manila with 18%.

The result shows that more Filipinos continue tune in to DZMM for news and information. However, aside from being first when it comes in news, DZMM also continues to be first in public service with its various programs and projects for the benefit of Filipinos.

Recently, the program “Dr. Love” of anchor Bro. Jun Banaag celebrated its 20^th anniversary by giving free haircuts, check-ups, and eyeglasses to senior citizens at the Manila Boystown Complex in Marikina City. This December, DZMM’s award-winning TLC (Teaching, Learning, Caring) mobile clinic and classroom will also be going to the Quezon province, while its “Maligayang Paslit” gift-giving activity for children will be held in Enchanted Kingdom.

DZMM, UKG, AT TV PATROL, NAGDIWANG NG MGA ANIBERSARYO KASAMA

ANG MGA PINOY SA CANADA

Isang gabing puno ng aliw at saya ang hinatid ng DZMM Radyo Patrol 630, “Umagang Kay Ganda,” (UKG) at “TV Patrol” (TVP) sa mga Pilipino sa Ontario, Canada noong Nobyembre para sa pagdiriwang ng ika-sampung anibersaryo ng DZMM Teleradyo at UKG, at tatlumpung taon ng TVP.

Bumida ang mga Kapamilya artists na sina Jaya at Xian Lim kasama ang DZMM at TVP anchors na sina Noli “Kabayan” De Castro, UKG anchor na si Winnie Cordero, DZMM anchor Ahwel Paz, at TFC Adobo Nation anchor na si Ginger Conejero sa programang tinawag na “Gabi ng Pasasalamat: A Thanksgiving Show.”

Ipinamalas din dito ang talino, puso, at talento ng mga Pilipino sa ibang bansa sa pamamagitan ng “Nanay Kong Kay Ganda” ng UKG at “Global Pinoy Singing Idol” (GPSI) ng DZMM. Ang “Nanay Kong Kay Ganda” ay patimpalak ng UKG para sa mga Pilipinong ina na kanilang dadalhin din sa Hong Kong ngayong Disyembre. Samantala, ang GPSI naman ang paligsahan ng DZMM para sa mga Pilipinong mangangawit sa ibang bansa, na magkakaroon naman ng kanilang grand finals sa Pebrero 2018.

Taos pusong tinaggap ng mga Pilipino sa ibang bansa ang isinagawang programa, kung saan ang ilan pa ay nanggaling sa malayong lugar, ayon kay DZMM station manager na si Marah Capuyan.

“Masaya kami na makapagdiwang ng aming mga tagumpay kasama ang mga Kapamilya na malayo sa atin. Nakakataba ng puso na tayo ay dinayo pa nila kaya naman lalo pa kaming inspirado na makapagbigay ng de-kalibreng balita at serbisyo publiko sa lahat ng Pilipino,” ani pa niya.

Samantala, sa Pilipinas naman, patuloy na nangunguna ang DZMM Radyo 630 sa Metro Manila ayon sa Kantar Media. Sa survey na isinagawa noong Setyembre 22 hanggang 28, nakakuha ng 31% audience share ang DZMM, lamang sa 21% ng DZBB Super Radyo at 18% ng DZXL RMN Manila na may 18%.

Patunay lamang ito na mas maraming Pilipino pa rin ang tumututok sa DZMM para sa balita at impormasyon. Bukod dito, nangunguna rin ang himpilan sa serbisyo publiko. Kamakailan, namigay ng libreng gupit, check-up, at salamin ang “Dr. Love” ni Bro. Jun Banaag sa mga matatanda sa Manila Boystown Complex sa Marikina City. Ngayong Disyembre, pupunta rin ang premyadong TLC (Teaching, Learning, Caring) ng DZMM na mobile clinic at classroom sa Quezon province, samantalang  ang “Maligayang Paslit” naman ay magbibigay ng regalo sa mga bata na kanilang ipapasyal sa Enchanted Kingdom.

Para sa pinakamainit na balita at impormasyon sa mga parating na public servie event, tumutok sa DZMM Radyo Patrol 630 sa AM radio at via audio livestreaming sa dzmm.com.ph, sa DZMM TeleRadyo sa cable at ABS-CBN TVplus, at sundan ang @DZMMTeleRadyo sa Facebook at Twitter.

Another pair of Marawi survivors will share their stories of struggle and hope in the second part of “Red Alert’s” Marawi special airing this Wednesday (December 6) after “Bandila” on ABS-CBN.

Jeff Canoy meets Saripada Pacasum Jr., who witnessed unity and compassion during the bloody war. Saripada shared how the lack of electricity and severed communication lines made it even difficult to save trapped residents as terrorists and the military exchanged gunfire. Add to that the shortage on food, water, and shelter for civilians.

One of those caught in the battle area was PO1 Lumna Lidasan, who served as the beacon of courage and hope for five other policemen he was with during the crossfire.

Meanwhile, while the war has ended, danger remains for the people of Marawi with improvised explosive devices (IEDs) left behind by terrorists in the city. While our soldiers are already doing clearing operations, civilians should know how to keep themselves and their families safe from these devices.

Gain knowledge and courage in the face of danger as we relive the stories of Marawi with Jeff Canoy on “Red Alert” this Wednesday (December 6) at 9:30pm on DZMM TeleRadyo, and after “Bandila” on ABS-CBN and ABS-CBN HD. Watch online  via iwant.com.ph or skyondemand.com.ph. For updates, follow the program on Facebook at www.facebook.com/RedAlertABSCBN or on Twitter: @ABSCBNRedAlert.

Jeff Canoy gets to know more stories of struggle and hope in the second part of the Marawi special.

IBA PANG KWENTO MULA SA MARAWI, IHAHATID NI JEFF CANOY SA “RED ALERT”

Muling babalikan ni Jeff Canoy ang mga kwento ng hirap at pagasa mula sa Marawi ngayong Miyerkules (Disyembre 6) sa “Red Alert” pagkatapos ng “Bandila” sa ABS-CBN.

Sa ikalawang bahagi ng Marawi special ng programang tumutulong sa mga Pilipinong makaiwas sa kapahamakan at maging handa sa sakuna, makikilala ang dalawang nakaligtas sa digmaan. Nakita ni Saripada Pacasum Jr, ang patuloy na malasakit at pagkakaisa ng mga tao sa gitna ng digmaan sa kabila ng kakulangan sa pagkain, tubig, at ligtas na matutuluyan. Nakadagdag pa sa hirap sa pagsalba sa mga sibilyan ang pagputol sa mga linya ng komunikasyon at kawalan ng elektrisidad.

Isa sa mga naipit sa gitna ng hidwaan si PO1 Lumna Lidasan, na sa kabila ng hirap ay nagsilbing huwaran ng katatagan at pag-asa para sa lima pa niyang kasamahang pulis.

Samantala,  nanatili pa ring mapanganib sa ilang parte ng Marawi dahil sa mga iniwang bomba o improvised explosive devices (IEDs) ng mga terorista. Habang sinisiguro ng mga sundalo na maayos at ligtas ang  lugar, kinakailangan ding armasan ng kaalaman ang mga residente kung paano mapo-protektahan ang sarili at pamilya.

Dahil ligtas ang may alam kapag nalagay sa peligro, panoorin ang mga kwentong Marawi ni Jeff Canoy sa “Red Alert,” 9:30pm sa DZMM TeleRadyo at pagkatapos ng “Bandila” sa ABS-CBN at ABS-CBN HD ngayong Miyerkules (Disyembre 6).

Upcoming comedienne Donna Cariaga takes a serious turn as she reflects on the big changes in her life in “Tapatan ni Tunying” this Friday (January 5).

After winning in the “Funny One” segment of “It’s Showtime,” Donna said the last months have been hectic for her as opportunities, fame, and projects came storming in. While she now has few days to rest because of her work, the proud mother said she is more than thankful for the changes in her life.

“We are planning to invest to prepare for our baby’s education. We don’t know how long this lucky break given to me will last so we need to invest what we have now so it doesn’t go to waste,” she said of her plans.

She also shared that she is willing to go outside her comfort zone of comedy, if given the opportunity.

“If ever there I will be given roles in other genres, I will still accept them. Right now, I am willing to accept any offers,” she said.

Just like Donna, transgender beauty pageant patron Jennifer Collins is also experiencing big changes in her life. The former “It’s Showtime” Miss Q&A contestant lost her leg after being involved in a vehicular accident in August last year.

With her disability, she can no longer travel around Luzon as easily to work on pageants, where she would do make up, dress up contestants, train people, and even join the pageants herself, to help her family financially. Yet, she remains hopeful and positive.

“I can now stand and use a walker which is good. Many cannot believe how fast I have recovered in just four months. Perhaps I can thank my positivity for it,” she told Anthony.

Get to know Donna and Jennifer and be inspired by how they embraced the changes in their lives with an open mind and open heart this Friday (January 5) with Anthony Taberna on “Tapatan ni Tunying” at 9:30pm on DZMM TeleRadyo and after “Bandila” on ABS-CBN.
