This is the Summer Station ID of ABS-CBN in 2007. The Summer Station ID was themed “Piliin Mo Ang Pilipinas”.
The Summer Station ID theme song was performed by Filipina OPM singer and songwriter Regine Velasquez featuring Filipino singer, songwriter, rapper, dancer, television host, actor and comedian Ogie Alcasid who is Regine Velasquez's husband when they got married in December 30, 2005 which was 1 day before Ogie Alcasid's birthday. Somehow, They had their first child who was born in May 1, 2007. Also starting in June 1, 2007, The theme “Piliin Mo Ang Pilipinas” can be heard on DZMM Radyo 630 and various radio stations nationwide.
The Summer Station ID features Ritz Azul, Alice Dixson, Arcee Muñoz, Tuesday Vargas, Eula Caballero, Roxanne Guinoo, Valerie Concepcion, AiAi delas Alas, Cherry Pie Picache, Carmina Villaroel, Eugene Domingo, Nora Aunor, Lucho Ayala, Gil Cuerva, Rainier Castillo, Raymond Bagatsing, Bayani Agbayani, JC de Vera, Martin Escudero, Gerald Anderson, Sef Cadayona, Edgar Allan Guzman, Cherie Mercado, Kara David, The Tulfo Brothers, Bernadette Sembrano, Mariz Umali, Kim Atienza, Jiggy Manicad, Ted Failon, Arnold Clavio, “Kabayan” Noli de Castro, Marc Logan, Vicky Morales, DingDong Dantes, Marian Rivera, Andi Eigenmann, Dominic Roco, Felix Roco, Bong Revilla, Emman Abelda, Joshua Dionisio, RJ Padilla, Tito Sotto, Vic Sotto, Joey de Leon, Heart Evangelista, Erich Gonzales, Dimples Romana, Robin Padilla, Paolo Ballesteros, Oyo Boy Sotto, McCoy de Leon, Jhong Hilario, Claudine Barretto, Judy Ann Santos, Jodi Sta.

The Summer Station ID contains the supergroup Bravo All-Stars, the Sexbomb dancers like Shalani Soledad, Iya Villania and Niña Jose and the Goin Bulilit original cast members from TV5 like child actors Angelica Panganiban, Alex Gonzaga, Cristine Reyes, Nash Aguas, Valeen Montenegro, David Licauco, Vince Gamad, Lianne Valentin, Vin Abrenica, Sophie Albert, Mark Neumann, Shaira Mae Diaz, Akihiro Blanco and Chanel Morales. The Summer Station ID also features British boy band One Direction in their pre-debut and Australian born American actor, producer and comedian Will Smith who portrayed Jack Frost in the 2002 movie Frozen as a special guest. Red, Green, Blue and Black Balloons will also be scattered around the world to literally bring forth the summer fun.
The Summer Station ID was filmed in Hollywood, Singapore, Germany, Italy, France, London, Jamaica, Australia, Kenya, Japan, Quezon City, Boracay and New York in June 2006 whenever the ABS-CBN, GMA and TV5 crew members are having a hot summer day into a big summer party.
The Summer Station ID clips will be re-used in the 2013 Summer Station ID of TV5 which is “Bida Best sa Tag-Araw”, The 2014 Summer Station ID of TV5 which is “Pinoy Summer, Da Best 4 Eva!” and the I Gotta Feeling music video from the future movie Ready Player One which will be releasing in March 21, 2013 from Walt Disney Pictures, Walt Disney Animation Studios and Pixar Animation Studios. However, The Summer Station ID reuses the clips of the music videos from those deleted songs Without Me by Dr. Dre and The Real Slim Shady by DMX from the movie Frozen where Will Smith as Jack Frost and Luis Manzano, Xian Lim, Enchong Dee, Matteo Guidicelli and DingDong Dantes as “The Backstreet Boys” were seen including Little Bo Peep from Toy Story and Gelli de Belen as “The Beauty Queen” who also make a cameo at the near end.
But somehow, This is the only Summer Station ID to feature the crew of ABS-CBN, GMA and TV5.

This is the 2005 Christmas Station ID of GMA. The Christmas Station ID was themed “Kapuso, Ikaw ang Star ng Pasko”.
The Christmas Station ID Theme was sung Martin Nievera, Sharon Cuneta, Gary Valenciano, Pops Fernandez, Ogie Alcasid and Regine Velasquez featuring the Christmas Carollers from GMA and the original cast from the TV5 sketch comedy show Goin’ Bulilit. Somehow, The Christmas Station ID was shortened due to the video. Somehow, Starting in December 1, 2005, The song “Star ng Pasko” can be heard in DZBB Radyo 594 and various radio stations nationwide where it was extended. Somehow, This Christmas Station ID occurred before Ogie Alcasid and Regine Velasquez’s wedding in December 30, 2005 which was 1 day before Ogie Alcasid’s birthday.
The Christmas Station ID contains Martin Nievera who is riding on a Jeepney featuring the crew members, Heart Evangelista, Erich Gonzales, Dimples Romana, Gabby Concepcion with his daughter KC Concepcion, Eddie Gutierrez and Ruffa Gutierrez, Kim Chiu, Xian Lim, Zoren Legaspi, Arcee Muñoz, Alice Dixson, Tuesday Vargas, Ritz Azul, Eula Caballero, Paolo Bediones, Sharon Cuneta, Piolo Pascual, Willie Revillame, Janno Gibbs, Mike Enriquez, Henry Omaga-Diaz, Karen Davila, Cheryl Cosim, Jessica Soho, Amelyn Veloso, Anthony Taberna, Alvin Elchico, Sunshine Dizon, Sue Ramirez, Cesar Montano, Ogie Diaz, Arthur Solinap, Joem Bascon, Christopher de Leon, Rodolfo “Dolphy” Quizon, Albert Martinez, IC Mendoza, Arjo Atayde, Jayson Gainza, Patrick Garcia, AJ Perez, Carl Cervantes, Jerome Ponce, Christian Bables, Terence Baylon, JM de Guzman, Jeric Gonzales, Albie Casiño, Chad Kinis, Derek Ramsay, Carlos Agassi, Eric Fructuoso, Michael V., Allan K., Edu Manzano, Jericho Rosales, JC de Vera, Martin Escudero, Gerald Anderson, Sef Cadayona, Edgar Allan Guzman, Paolo Serrano, Sam Milby, Luis Manzano, Matteo Guidicelli, John Prats, Ces Oreña-Drilon, Carmina Villaroel, Eugene Domingo, Nora Aunor, Leandro Muñoz, Kristine Hermosa, Meg Imperial, Gelli de Belen, Janice de Belen, Mark Lapid, Cherie Gil, Raymart Santiago, Enrique Gil, Lovely Abella, Carlo Aquino, Jake Cuenca, Wendell Ramos, DingDong Avanzado, Rene Hawkins, Pen Medina, Ping Medina, Alex Vincent Medina, Julia Montes, Angel Locsin, Coleen Garcia, Shaina Magdayao, Ellen Adarna, Louise de los Reyes, Jessie Mendiola, Ivana Alawi, Maja Salvador, Eric Quizon, Epy Quizon, Richard Gutierrez, Raymond Gutierrez, John Lloyd Cruz, Ken Alfonso, Zanjoe Marudo, Polo Ravales, Richard Gomez and his wife Lucy Torres-Gomez, Janine Gutierrez, Roxanne Guinoo, Joyce Jimenez, Maricel Soriano, Candy Pangilinan, Jodi Sta. Maria, Richard Yap, Mariel Rodriguez, Krystal Reyes, Toni Gonzaga, Camille Prats, Jennylyn Mercado, Pooh, Pokwang, Valerie Concepcion, Shawn Yao, Keempee de Leon, Eula Valdez, RK Bagatsing, Ian Veneracion, Claudine Barretto, Jose Manalo, Wally Bayola, Kim Atienza, Charo Santos-Concio, Cherry Pie Picache, Judy Ann Santos, Tito Sotto, Vic Sotto, Joey de Leon, Jess Lapid Jr., Vhong Navarro, Billy Crawford, Teddy Corpuz, Isko Moreno, Mico Halili, JP de Guzman, Mel Martinez, Neil Ryan Sese, Long Mejia, Jolo Revilla, Bong Revilla, Paolo Ballesteros, Oyo Boy Sotto, McCoy de Leon, Jhong Hilario, Ryan Agoncillo, Maine Mendoza, Catherine Bernardo, RJ Padilla, Aga Muhlach, Bembol Roco, Geoff Eigenmann, Gabby Eigenmann, Bernard Palanca, Mico Palanca, featuring child actress Angelica Panganiban who is an original cast member of Goin’ Bulilit. The Christmas Station ID includes the Spice Girls, the supergroup Group of 30, DJ Lance the Dinosaur from Sesame Street and the original cast of Goin’ Bulilit like Vin Abrenica, Sophie Albert, Mark Neumann, Shaira Mae Diaz, Akihiro Blanco and Chanel Morales. The Christmas Station ID also features the pre-debut of South Korean boy band BigBang, the characters from Disney’s Blues Clues including Wayne Allwine, the voice of Mickey Mouse with his wife Russi Taylor, the voice of Minnie Mouse and president Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo who turns on the Christmas Lights and hugs Angelica Panganiban at the very end. Sadly, Fernando Poe Jr. and Mark Gil don’t appear in the 2005 Christmas Station ID because Fernando Poe Jr. died in September 11, 2005 of leukemia and Mark Gil died in November 11, 2005 due to a respiratory failure.
But eventually, This was the only Christmas Station ID of GMA to feature the crew from ABS-CBN, GMA and TV5. But somehow, The clips will look different in the 2010 ABS-CBN Christmas Station ID which is “Da Best ang Pasko ng Pilipino” where they set up Christmas decorations in the house. Luckily, Martin Nievera can create a portal that could transport other crew members into other dimensions.
Somehow, Arcee Muñoz, Alice Dixson, Tuesday Vargas, Ritz Azul, Eula Caballero, Aga Muhlach, Sam Milby, Maja Salvador, Geoff Eigenmann, Gabby Eigenmann and Willie Revillame moved to TV5 in 2005. But Ryan Agoncillo, Jose Manalo, Wally Bayola, Paolo Ballesteros, Judy Ann Santos and IC Mendoza moved to ABS-CBN in 2005.

Matagal na to gusto ipanood saken ni choykie yung movie ng LOLO nya. Last time ko lang napanood dahil gusto ko kasama sya. Nagulat ako kase all this time akala ko goons, shutaaa yun pala magaling na pulis lolo nya noon sa makati. Sobrang nakakabilib dahil di ko expect na ang galing ng lolo nya sa larangan ng pinili nya, at ang bait pa sa mahihirap.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ang galing gumanap ni Bong Revilla. Napaka angas ng pagkakaganap nya. Nakakatuwa pa kase sakto kahawig ng Lolo nya noon. Kuhang kuha yung bigote. Kaya siguro napaka daming chicks ng lolo nya noon chos.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
sobrang saludo talaga ako sa galing at kabaitan ng lolo nya noon. Siguro nga kung hindi sya namatay baka naging Mayor to ng makati o kaya naging magaling na opisyal na naglilingkod sa bayan. Medyo awkward lang talaga kase biruin nyo yon pinapanood ko kung paano pinatay yung Lolo ng girlfriend ko habang kasama sya. Di ko ma imagine yung naramdaman ng Lolo nya habang binabaril sya. Nakakaasar at nakakainis lang kase ang dami bumaril sa kanya tapos isa lang sya.
Tumblr media
basta Lodicakes ko na tong Lolo nya hehehe! Galing galing kaya kwento ko to dito. Bitin nga ako sa 2hours movie. Parang gusto ko pa makita lahat ng ginawa nya noon, dahil alam kong napaka buti nyang tao.

PCSO Extends Invitation to Senate Committee on Games and Amusements for Transparent Oversight: General Manager Mel Robles Welcomes Senators to Observe Lottery Processes and Ensure Integrity
MANILA — On Tuesday, January 24, 2023, General Manager Mel Robles of the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) announced the extension of an invitation to members of the Senate Committee on Games and Amusements. The purpose of this invitation, he stated, is to enable senators to observe lottery processes and form unbiased conclusions and recommendations.
GM Robles expressed confidence in the integrity of the lottery procedures, emphasizing that allowing senators to witness the draws firsthand is the best way to dispel any doubts.
“For the past 89 years, the PCSO has maintained unquestionable integrity, and we are committed to upholding that untarnished reputation,” affirmed Robles.
He further stated, “That’s why we are inviting our honorable senators to witness the actual processes in action.”
Going the extra mile, GM Robles encouraged senators to conduct unannounced inspections to provide additional assurance of the integrity of lottery operations.
In a letter dated January 22, GM Robles invited the lawmakers to witness the entire lotto draw process, from pre-draw preparations to the actual draw, on any day without prior notice, in the interest of transparency.
The letter was addressed to Committee Chairperson Sen. Manuel Lapid, Vice-Chairpersons Sen. Christopher ‘Bong’ Go and Sen. Raffy Tulfo, and committee members Senators Jose Ejercito Jr., Francis ‘Chiz’ Escudero, Ramon Bong Revilla Jr., Francis Tolentino, and Risa Hontiveros.
“If you choose to send a representative, we simply ask for official written authorization for him or her,” added GM Robles.
“We are committed to openness and accountability in the conduct of all our lottery activities. Fostering transparency in the lotto draw process is crucial in maintaining public trust and confidence in the integrity of our operations,” emphasized GM Robles. (Elami Go/PAN)

(5th UPDATE) Estrada was convicted of one count of direct bribery and two counts of indirect bribery. He will remain free as he appeals those convictions.
MANILA, Philippines – Senator Jinggoy Estrada was acquitted of plunder, but convicted of bribery in the pork barrel scam. 
The anti-graft court Sandiganbayan released this verdict to Estrada on Friday, January 19.
Estrada was convicted of one count of direct bribery and two counts of indirect bribery. Those carry a sentence of 8 to 9 years for direct bribery and 2 to 3 years for indirect bribery. He was also ordered to pay a P3-million fine.
Estrada will remain free as he appeals those convictions.
Estrada’s indirect bribery conviction carries an accessory penalty of suspension from public office. It is uncertain if this is immediately executory or if he has a chance to appeal. 
Co-accused Janet Lim-Napoles, who owns most of the NGOs in the pork barrel scam, was convicted of a total of 7 counts of corruption of public officials. She was ordered to pay a fine of P262 million. 
Like Estrada, Napoles was acquitted of plunder, but she remains in jail for other convictions, including plunder in relation to the Bong Revilla case where the senator was acquitted.
Estrada’s staff Pauline Therese Mary Labayen, and Napoles’ staff John Raymund de Asis remain at-large; their cases are archived, and warrants of arrest have been re-issued.
Estrada had been accused of pocketing P183 million in kickbacks from his Priority Development Assistance Fund or PDAF, discretionary funds for lawmakers which were corrupted by using bogus NGOs whose projects turned out to be fake.
He is the second of three senators to be acquitted of plunder in the pork barrel scam, a decade-long trial that has seen lower-ranked staff fall but lawmakers free.
Estrada, who won a senatorial comeback in 2022 with the Marcos-Duterte slate, is not completely off the hook on the graft allegations over the same controversy. Plunder has to involve an amount of P50 million and above, and has to prove earning a kickback. Graft is a lesser crime that can cover several offenses from negligence to partiality in government transactions.
Estrada has been out on bail for almost seven years now after the same court granted his bail petition in 2017. The Sandiganbayan approved the bail then using the novel principle of proving a “main plunderer,” which Estrada was not, at that point in the trial, according to the court.
Former senator Juan Ponce Enrile, who is now chief presidential legal adviser, is the only one with a pending plunder case. His case notoriously dragged on in the Sandiganbayan because of technical petitions. Revilla, the first to be acquitted, has also been cleared of his graft charges, ending his criminal trials over the pork barrel scam.
Like the others, Estrada has always maintained that he only endorsed the NGOs, and did not earn from the scam.
This is Estrada’s second plunder win. He was charged alongside his father, former president Joseph Estrada, over the accusation that they earned P4 billion from jueteng operations, among others.
Jinggoy Estrada was cleared, but his father President Estrada was convicted and pardoned later on by former president Gloria Macapagal Arroyo.
Estrada’s plunder charges from the pork barrel scam began in June 2014, when the Office of the Ombudsman, then under Conchita Carpio Morales, charged him, Revilla and Enrile – all big fish at the time. Enrile got bail on humanitarian grounds, and his chief-of-staff Gigi Reyes also recently secured a humanitarian release.
