In addition, Willie will also be a member of the executive committee tasked with developing programs for AMBS in collaboration with TV network president Beth Tolentino.
“Actually, I’ll be honest with you, sabi nga ni Ms. Beth, we are now open for hiring, of course, production staff, sa technical, we are now open. That’s why we are discussing this dahil nag-open kami ngayon ng live sa FB at YouTube. So, puwede nang mag-apply lahat kasi dati, puro salita,” said Willie.

Meanwhile, Willie denied speculations that AMBS Channel 2 already has a star-studded lineup. According to earlier reports, he met with Viva CEO and AMBS partner Vic del Rosario to recruit talent for the network.
“Sa ngayon, wala pa yun, e, kasi nga binubuo pa lang. Sabi ko nga, meron tayo, I would say, na gamit pero wala naman tayong paggagamitan. So kailangan natin ng makakasama at iko-conceptualize ang mga programa,” explained Willie.
