People’s Television Network (PTV-4), the state-run broadcaster, is exploring potential partnerships with major private television networks, its general manager Lino Cayetano says. Cayetano announced that GMA, ABS-CBN and MediaQuest’s TV5 have expressed interest in partnering with PTV-4. He said the PTV Board adopted a resolution authorizing him to enter into these partnerships to further advance the network’s mandate.
The announcement comes after Cayetano was named PTV-4 general manager by President Ferdinand Marcos, according to references in the reporting. The statements describe the effort as “exploring” partnerships rather than announcing specific deals or program schedules. The reports also cite the names of PTV Board members involved in adopting the resolution, including chairperson Victoria Recio and other board members.
No details are provided in the available accounts on the scope, timeline, or expected terms of any prospective collaboration. The reports focus on the board authorization and the expressed interest from the three networks.
