HATAW! D'yaryo ng Bayan hatawtabloid.com

KAPIPIRMA lang ni Boy Abunda ng two-year guaranteed contract sa ABS-CBN, which would expire in 2016, of course.
Sa ngayon, tatlo ang existing shows ng King of Talk: his nightly Aquino and Abunda, his Saturday night program na The Bottomline at ang Buzz ng Bayan tuwing Sunday.
We can just imagine kung paanong milagrong napaglalaanan ni Kuya Boy ang tatlong programang ito with equal dedication, gayong there are also days in a week when there arise intervening interviews in his Sunday show.
Bukod pa ito sa napakaraming preoccupations ni Kuya Boy bilang: a.) resource person sa mga speaking engagement; b.) endorser ng mga patalastas; c.) consultant ng mga premyadong showbiz personalities; at d.) pribadong indibidwal that he’s also supposed to be.
And by private, we mean the Boy Abunda na wala sa harap ng kamera who simply deserves to be himself.
Tamang-tama ang inilatag na ring time table ng ABS-CBN para kay Kuya Boy with respect to the expiration of his contract.
Year 2016 ang susunod na much-anticipated period in the electoral calendar.
This writer takes pride in engaging casual conversations with Kuya Boy sa kanyang mga hakbang sa hinaharap sa larangan ng paglilingkod sa bayan. Neither a Senatorial nor a Congressional seat ang kanyang nais sungkitin, confidently saying: ”Madali lang gumawa ng batas.”
Having seen the face of his native Eastern Samar through the years, mas prioridad ni Kuya Boy na mamuno sa mga bayan na sakop nito para matugunan ang mga problemang kinakaharap ng kanyang mga kapwa Waray.
And if we may commit a “crime of betrayal” sa pribadong tsikahan namin ni Kuya Boy, nais niyang sundan ang mga yapak ni Batangas Governor Vilma Santos-Rectowhose commitment to public service and governance are way beyond question.
Ikaw na, Kuya Boy!
