In other news, radio broadcaster Erwin Segovia, 63, was shot dead outside Radio WOW in Bislig City after hosting his morning show. Authorities said Segovia discussed “social issues, local governance, and community concerns,” and two motorcycle-riding suspects were seen fleeing. The Philippines has recorded 147 journalist killings since 1998, making it one of the most dangerous countries for media workers. Few suspects in journalist killings are ever prosecuted, with most victims based in provinces where they risk offending powerful figures.
Still in other news, Meta, a social media giant has taken down the Facebook pages of 20 Filipino influencers for promoting illegal online gambl1ng, acting on a request from the Cybercrime Investigation and Coordinating Center (CICC). Among those whose pages were removed are popular personalities such as Sachzna Laparan (9.7 million followers), Boy Tapang (5.5 million followers), actor Mark Anthony Fernandez (242,000 followers), and Kuya Lex TV (100,000 followers). Digital Pinoys National Campaigner Ronald Gustilo stated that this action sends a clear message that authorities and advocacy groups are "serious" about cracking down on online gambl1ng violations, implying further actions will follow. This move represents the initial phase of a broader campaign by CICC and Digital Pinoys to curb illegal online gambl1ng promotions, with more pages expected to be flagged and removed in the future.
