Duavit Clarifies Philippine Star article

GMA Network President and Chief Operating Officer Gilberto R. Duavit, Jr. clarified certain points raised in a news article by Mary Ann Ll. Reyes published in the Philippine Star last April 14 headlined “MVP offers up to P45 B for GMA Network.”

Duavit said that it is not true that two out of the three major stockholders of GMA “are already amenable to selling their respective 33-percent stake.”

He added that the major and controlling shareholders have not yet received a price that is acceptable to them. “We are presently not in serious negotiations with the PLDT group as we have not yet received an offer price that is acceptable to us. The Network is not for sale but that is not to say it may not be sold, depending on the offer price,” Duavit reiterated.

REEL DEAL: Prometheus 3D SPOTLIGHT

“PROMETHEUS 3D” – Creating Shaw and Meeting Her Maker

There has been a lot of speculation that “Prometheus” is a prequel to Scott’s highly acclaimed earlier film, Alien. The director wants to keep the story under wraps so that audiences view the film without preconceived ideas.

But he has admitted that there are links.  In “Prometheus,” the mission is funded by Peter Wayland (Guy Pearce), the ageing head of a huge corporation.  The action takes place 30 years before the story told in Alien.

 

Leading the Prometheus expedition is the character of Elizabeth Shaw, played by Noomi Rapace. From director Ridley Scott, who delivered the likes of “Thelma & Louise” and “Alien,” we can immediately expect a strong character to inhabit Shaw's spacesuit. And at the hands of Rapace, best known for her work in the tremendously-popular Swedish Millenium series, she comes alive as a new action heroine for the 21st Century.

SNICKERS® Launches "Not Yourself When You Are Hungry"

Have you ever felt that hunger has sometimes changed you into someone else?  

“You’re not you when you’re hungry!” said Lizette de Guzman, National Sales Manager of MARS Philippines Inc.

SNICKERS® today launched its newest campaign In the Philippines, dubbed “You’re not you when you’re hungryTM,” a concept which was developed behind universal insights that hunger makes a person weak and behaves differently, ultimately affecting the people around us and our performances. The campaign runs simultaneously in two other countries, Malaysia and Singapore.

“You’re not you when you’re hungryTM” is another innovative ad campaign that brings out the benefit of SNICKERS®, especially for the Filipinos; that it is a substantial bar that combats hunger to keep you going while satisfying their sweet tooth,” explained Lizette.

Gracing the launch at the SM Mall of Asia Music Hall are Azkals Skipper Aly Borromeo, Striker Phil Younghusband, and Midfielder James Younghusband, as they can very well attest to how as an athlete, they need their bodies to be at the optimal condition to perform at the highest level.
