ABS-CBN’s tradition in creating values-filled Christmas and Summer Station IDs for Filipinos all over the world marked a milestone as the company was named a Hall of Famer for winning six Best Station ID awards through the years at the 44th Catholic Mass Media Awards (CMMA).

Aside from this, ABS-CBN won the Best TV Ad (Public Service) award for its PSA featuring Filipino Olympic medalists titled “Sa Likod ng Medalya.”
“It’s Okay Not To Be Okay,” written and sung by Angela Ken and co-written by ABS-CBN Music creative director Jonathan Manalo, bagged the Best Secular Song award.
Meanwhile, Knowledge Channel’s “Ready, Set, Read!”, a video series aimed to improve English reading competencies among Filipino elementary students, received a special citation for the Best Children and Youth Program award.
