Pokwang asserted there is no truth to claims she regrets having transferred from ABS-CBN to GMA Network, even as she slammed those spreading what she said are made-up stories.

The actress-TV host was responding to a tweet by X user @06Skyscraper that read: “Laos na si Pokwang simula lumipat sa Kamuning. Parang nagsisi nga daw na lumipat. [Akala kasi] nila hindi makakabangon ang ABS-CBN.”

(Pokwang has become a has-been since she moved to Kamuning. I heard she regrets transferring networks. [She] must have thought that ABS-CBN would not recover.)

The netizen apparently used “Kamuning,” where GMA is located, to refer to the Kapuso network.

Pokwang then replied, “Jusko, saan galing mga animal na ito? Dapat ito ang tinatapon sa China! Mga mapaggawa ng [usaping] walang kwenta!”

(Gosh, where do these animals come from? They should be the ones who should be thrown to China. They are making up useless stories.)

She castigated those behind these claims, saying they would “end up in hell.”

“Masaya po ako sa GMA at mataas din respeto ko sa ABS-CBN—both network at ang TV5 ay mga malaking pasasalamat ko po dahil binuksan nila ang kanilang mga pinto sa aking talento,” she stressed, adding the hashtag “grateful heart.” 

(I am happy with GMA and I have so much respect for ABS-CBN. I am thankful to both networks, including TV5, because they opened their doors for my talent.)

Pokwang had been with ABS-CBN for around 15 years before she transferred to GMA in June 2021. The comedian has since become part of several Kapuso shows including “Pepito Manaloto,” “Magpakailanman” and “TiktoClock.”
