RESOLUTION NO. 48 
(Series of 2014)

A RESOLUTION OPPOSING THE APPLICATION OF RINCONADA BROADCASTING CORPORATION  FOR  THE  ISSUANCE  OF  A  CERTIFICATE  OF  PUBLIC CONVENIENCE   (CPC)  TO  INSTALL,  OPERATE  AND  MAINTAIN A UHF TELEVISION BROADCAST STATION IN OLONGAPO CITY, ZAMBALES


WHEREAS, at present there are three (3) FM Radio Stations (DWOK, DWSL, DWSB) operating in Olongapo City, two (2) AM Radio Stations (DWGO and  DWHL) and two (2) TV Stations (MyCable TV Service Provider and SBC TV 22) . Moreover, the City also receives the radio frequencies of other AM and FM stations as well as the signals of other television stations from other parts of the country;

WHEREAS, the said radio and television stations are under privately-owned corporate media that invested and gave support to the endeavors of the city despite the difficult times, barely making a profit;

WHEREAS, with the application of Rinconada Broadcasting Corporation to operate and maintain a UHF Television Broadcast station in the city, filed at the National Telecommunications Commission, another media station will be in competition with the existing media facilities servicing the City where at the current time are suffering from economic pinch due to global financial crisis, high cost of operation, maintenance and the meager advertising market to depend on;

WHEREAS, while the city appreciates the good intention of Rinconada Broadcasting Corporation to set up a UHF TV station in the city, the City Government of Olongapo find it logical to oppose the application at this time due to its foreseen better financial viability which may negatively affect even the existing radio stations. However, this does not prevent them from submitting another application in the future when the over-all state of businesses situation becomes conducive to accepting additional media stations in the city and all required documents are ready for presentation;

Con’t. of Resolution No. 48, Series of 2014.
