Broadcasters awed by Boracay’s clean beach line


Malay, Aklan – Anchors and radio personalities of the Kapisanan ng mga Brodkasters ng Pilipinas (KBP) is met by the sight of a beach line that is now appealing to the eyes than before with the implementation of the “One Entry-One Exit” law and the prohibition of boats operating along the popular stretch of beach from the northwest to the southern part of the summer capital of the Philippines, Boracay Island.

Participating in the 10th National Chapter Leaders Conference held this March 9-11, 2007 and hosted by the KBP Aklan Chapter under IBC-DYRG Station Manager Agusto Tolentino, some of the KBP Chapter Leaders are a constant visitor and remembered that the front beach has long since been cluttered with boats of different sizes but it now looked more beautiful than ever with a beach line that all you can see are tourists taking a dip or sunbathing or just strolling down the stretch of sand.

The KBP leaders arrived on March 9 at the Kalibo Airport and met for an audience with Cong. Florencio Miraflores, Gov. Carlito Marquez and Kalibo Mayor Raymar Rebaldo at the Capitol before passing by on a tour around the Aklan State University campus in Banga, Aklan and headed to Boracay island afterwards.

It is in this conference that the Broadcast Code of the Philippines is unveiled being the new “bible” for broadcasters working both the television and radio industry to keep abreast in the changing times while adhering to the highest standards of broadcasting. Terence Toriano/
