Korina Sanchez-Roxas has officially signed on as the host of “Face to Face: Harapan,” a new chapter for TV5’s iconic program.
Starting today, “Face to Face: Harapan” will air from Monday to Friday at 4:00 PM, before “Wil to Win” on TV5.
Award-winning journalist Korina Sanchez will bring a unique and authoritative perspective to the program.
Korina was warmly welcomed by MediaQuest and TV5 executives, including Jane Jimenez-Basas, President and CEO of MediaQuest Holdings, Cignal TV, and MQuest Ventures; Guido R. Zaballero, President and CEO of TV5; and John L. Andal, Group Finance Officer of MediaQuest Holdings.
Produced by MQuest Ventures and Cignal TV, “Face to Face: Harapan” retains its original theme while providing a deeper and more balanced discussion of real-life issues.
In addition to hearing the sides of “Sa Pula” and “Sa Puti,” Korina will also provide her own evaluation of each episode, based on what she hears from both sides and the advice of the “Harapang Tagapayo.”
Korina stated : “Bata pa lang po ako, hanggang dito sa aking karera, malapit po ako sa masa. Ang akin pong hinahanap na mga kwentong buhay ay ang mga kwento ng mga totoong tao,
“At ako po ay sanay na mag-referee sa pagitan ng mga nag-aalitang panig. That led me to say YES!”
Korina also liked the format of the program, “I think it’s something that can still grow and improve. And malay n’yo, magka-spinoff pa ito, right? But again the brand is all about quality, consistency, and authenticity.”
TV5 President at CEO, Guido Zaballero said : “We welcome our newest Kapatid, Korina Sanchez-Roxas, as the new host of Face To Face: Harapan,
“Her ability to connect with people and tackle complex issues make her the ideal person to lead the show into this new era.” he added.
