‘Buti pa ‘yung POGO.’ Coco Martin boldy called out government’s move on ABS-CBN shutdown

Coco Martin, one of ABS-CBN’s biggest talents, did not hold back his words after the National Telecommunications Commission shut down the Kapamilya network.

During the Kapamilya stars’ gathering for an online protest #LabanKapamilya, the FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano star once again called out the government’s incompetence.

In the Facebook Live session, he first questioned the government’s priorities especially in this time of the pandemic, where it decided to let a giant media network shut down instead of focusing on the pandemic.

“Sabi ko, anong klaseng taong ‘to? Sa gitna ng pandemya, sa gitna ng nangyayari sa ating bansa, nauna niyo pang isipin ipasara ang ABS-CBN kaysa tugunan ang lahat ng pangangailangan ng ating bansa?”

He also lamented that ABS-CBN stars are usually the first ones who reach out to help when the country is hit with a disaster.

“Sa panahon ngayon, ang ABS-CBN at ang mga artista ang isa sa mga tumutulong sa mga tao ngayon. Ano pong malaking problema dun?”

Coco boldly called out the government for resuming Philippine Offshore Gaming Operations (POGO) amid quarantine period, “Ngayon po, ano po bang uunahin natin ngayon? Tanggalin ang kumpanya na tumutulong sa ating kapwa, sa lahat ng mga Pilipino? O ‘yung sugal na pinapasok sa ating bansa? Buti pa ‘yung POGO, diba, pinaglalaban ‘nyo.”

Coco strong statements has led netizens to ‘stan’ him for bravely naming government officials who don’t seem to be competent and fair.

Coco Martin:
Calling out POGO
Name-dropping Harry Roque

Tell them like it really is. Coco Martin is a principled person and because of this he is able to characterize into his roles like the great actor that he is. Audience-rating wise, he is very profitable for any TV station production.https://t.co/y93ejilsg5

mocks trolls and Harry Roque; slams the government and POGO…Spell F-E-A-R-L-E-S-S …Coco Martin is our spirirt animal #LabanKapamilya #LabanCardo

Coco Martin, like many thinking Filipinos has the right to compare ABS-CBN closure to POGO operations. He thinks logically, reasonably. Don't try to make fools of Mr. Martin and many Filipinos just because you are protecting a Chinese lackey with Kiss China Ass Foreign Policy. https://t.co/FKm9vfeTAw

This wasn’t the first time the Kapamilya actor name-dropped a government official after ABS CBN shut down, Coco also called out Solicitor General Jose Calida and sarcastically thanked him for the said shutdown.

“Alam ko at malinaw sa akin na MALI at KAWALANG KATARUNGAN ang tanggalan ng hanapbuhay ang ilang libong empleyado ng isang kumpanyang naglilingkod sa sambayanang Pilipino ng ilang dekada! Maraming maraming salamat Solicitor General Joe Calida at sa bumubuo ng National Telecommunications Commission sa kontribusyon niyo sa ating bayan!”

Coco soon became the target of bashers and trolls.

Malaking mawawala sa kanyang pera sa Ang Probinsyano. Baka nga sa kanya na yung production kaya sobrang galit ni Coco
