ABS-CBN launched its much-anticipated summer station ID with the theme “Ipanalo ang Pamilyang Pilipino.” It calls on the people to elect the leaders who will champion the Filipino family — leaders who are trustworthy and who will take action on the important issues of the Filipino families.
The summer station ID, which airs after TV Patrol encapsulates the very urgent and timely message for Filipinos who are faced with the important task of electing the leaders on May 9.
The campaign sends the strong message that we cannot just sit and watch election mistakes to happen. The station ID hopes to help Filipinos to make the right moves if we want to never again experience graft and corruption, among other political wrongdoings.
The Halalan-inspired summer station ID features Kapamilya stars, ABS-CBN News anchors, and executives, like Piolo Pascual, John Lloyd Cruz, Noli “Kabayan” De Castro, Bernadette Sembrano, and Ted Failon of TV Patrol, and ABS-CBN chief content officer, executive adviser to the chairman, and ABS-CBN University President Charo Santos-Concio. They are seen rallying on the streets, markets, schools, and depressed areas, calling for change and talking to the people about their views on what kind of leader the country needs. Kapamilya stars running for office and those who are endorsing or are related to a candidate were not included in the station ID.
Pascual and Sarah Geronimo sang the theme song together with Ebe Dancel and Elmo Magalona with Erik Santos, Angeline Quinto, Yeng Constantino, Jed Madela, KZ Tandingan, Richard Poon, Morissette, Bradley Holmes, Jason Fernandez, and Daryl Ong.
The ABS-CBN Creative Communication Management Division (CCM) produced the “Ipanalo ang Pamilyang Pilipino” station ID. Inspired by the musical composition of Thyro Alfaro and Yumi Lacsamana, the station ID theme song was given a special musical arrangement by Marcus Davis and Jan Duran with lyric by Lloyd Oliver Corpuz and Christian Abuel.
ABS-CBN, through its Integrated News Division, has mounted a comprehensive, in-depth, and up-to-the-minute news coverage of the 2016 national elections via its year-long Halalan 2016: Ipanalo Ang Pamilyang Pilipino campaign, which includes series of election-related special reports in “KampanyaSerye,” debates and forums, mobile application, and citizen journalism and engagement via “Bayan Mo, i-Patrol Mo.”

The restaurant, said Picache, is under the umbrella of Moderne Group of Restos Inc. and is one of two branches, the other is at UP Town Center on Katipunan. It will have a third that will open on the first week of April in Venice Piazza, McKinley Hill.
Picache also announced that three more branches will be opened in the South Area by the end of 2016.
In the lunch get together, the editors learned that the restaurant’s chef, Chef Tatung, had left for good. And so, Picache said, the new direction of Alab Restaurant and its tin deli are directed towards being the melting pot of the best flavors and different dishes from across the regions.
She added, “To find the best, the group wants to find and invite chefs from various places, whether in this bustling city or the far flung barrio, in which these heirloom recipes can be featured in Alab’s events.”
The guys behind Moderne Group Inc. apart from Cherry Pie Picache, are her partners Joe Fernando of JB Music and JB Sports and Christine del Castillo of Moderne Culinaire academy.
UP Town Center just got hotter with the opening of Alab Restaurant on Feb. 11.
“We envisioned putting up a restaurant where anyone who visits can have a taste of the best food across the regions without having to set foot on a plane to do so,” explained Picache.
