10 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS: Is there stopping ABS-CBN from reaching out to its millions of audiences?
Network’s franchise may not have been renewed, but as they say, when God closes a door, He opens a window.

ABS-CBN announced recently its digital transformation with another milestone.
ABS-CBN News has reached 10 million subscribers on YouTube.
