UNTV Boycotts Sofitel for Refusing to Support Public Service Channel

10494859_929182000440547_8453887379863494231_n“Una sa lahat, hindi ito ordinaryong kampanya ng boycott.
I-binoycott po kasi nila ang UNTV na nag-iisang Public Service Channel ng Pilipinas.

Inalis din nila sa kanilang TV hotel programming ang isang istasyong nagkakawanggawa at sampung taon nang kumakalinga sa mga dukha, naaapi at itinatakwil ng lipunan.

Sa ginawa ng Sofitel, hindi ba malinaw na pangmamata, panghahamak sa isang istasyong bagamat maliit ay may puso sa kapwa tao nito.

Kaya kung naniniwala ka sa panawagang ito ng UNTV CEO and Chairman na si Kuya Daniel Razon, tara na! Ngayon na!

Kaya po sa lahat ng naniniwala sa kampanyang ito, tara na sa Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, at i-post po natin ito. Ibuhos ang ating hinaing at pagbatikos. SOBRA NA! TAMA NA!”

Translation

“First of all, this is not just an ordinary boycott campaign. They (Sofitel) were the first to boycott UNTV, the only Public Service Channel in the Philippines.

They even removed in their TV hotel programming a station that helps the poor and needy for almost ten years.

Because of what Sofitel did, isn’t this a clear indication of underestimation and disdain of small stations that have a heart for the people.

If you believe in this call by UNTV CEO and Chairman Bro Daniel Razon, let’s go! Now!

For those who believe in this campaign, let’s go to Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and post this. Let’s spill out our complaint and admonition. It’s enough! Stop this!”

A few hours ago, this was posted by UNTV – Your Public Service Channel Facebook Fan page. Immediately, the post received numerous likes, shares, and different reactions from the social media users.

UNTV claims that Sofitel boycotted them first. According to them, the five-star luxury resort hotel also removed the only station that helps the poor and those that were treated badly by the society. The station is very disappointed by what the hotel did to small channels like them that have a heart for other people.

Through their post, UNTV CEO and Chairman Daniel Razon encourages the public to support the Sofitel boycott campaign by spreading the word and posting the “No To Sofitel” campaign photo and using the hashtags #NotoSofitel #BoycottSofitelPH, SOBRA NA! TAMA NA!

As of writing, the boycott campaign post gained 738 likes, 1,716 shares, and 241 comments

  1. What exactly did Sofitel Philippines do? They just withdrew their ad? Is that it? Please clarify.

  2. Here’s a better response after some discussion> WHAT EXACTLY DID SOFITEL PHILIPPINES DO? They intentionally removed UNTV from their programming. Why? So that Centennial guests won’t view UNTV. Why? Because Bro. Eli will surely be found there criticizing their beliefs. So? This can be a deception of all deceptions! We now BOYCOTT SOFITEL!

  3. sa namahala ng ng SOFITEL balang araw tatawag din kayo sa DIOS at doon nyo malalaman na napakaling kamalian ang ginagawa nyo na panghahadlang sa isang estasyon sa paggawa ng mabuti sa kapwa. maawa po kayo sa inyong kaluluwa. kaya nyo bang tapatan ang mga kabutihan na ginagawa ng UNTV37???

  4. Hindi nyo kailangang pag sigawan na nkakatulong ang UNTV sa mga mahihirap, di nyo kailangang pag diinan na kayo ang numero unong estasyon na nkakatulong sa kapwa. Ang tunay na pag tulong di yan pinag sisigawan di yan sinusumbat. Kung inalis ng sofitel yang channel nyo desisyon nila yon kaya sana respetuhin nyo. Di mo pedeng isumbat yan dahil ang tunay na pagtulong hindi naghihintay ng kapalit, Hindi kailangang iboycott boycott pa. Paghihiganti tawag jan ganyan ba tinuro sa inyo? Ang paghihiganti sa kapwa? Ang paghihimok sa iba na i boycott ang Sofitel? Ang mali ay hindi naitatama ng isa pang pagkakamali. LOL

    • Natulungan din ako ng UNTV, wala namang panunumbat sa pagsasabing public service channel kasi yun naman talaga ang ginagawa nila, Paano kaya malalaman ng mahihirap na tao na may Charity sa UNTV kung di nila sasabihin at isesecret lang nila na may medical mission sila. Lagi kaya ako doon nag papacheck up kaya susuporta ako sa pag post ng boycott kasi mahirap lang ako di ko sila maboboycott sa di pagpunta doon. Hindi naman din po paghihiganti ang pagsasabi ng hindi hustisya. Lagi kaya akong binubuli hindi naman ako gumaganti ng suntok pero sasabihin ko na masama yun! gets mo po?

    • Halo halo naman ang argumento mo…

      Una walang karapatan ang sofitel na tanggalin ang UNTV sa channel listing nila dahil walang nilalabag na batas ang UNTV sa polisiya ng pagtetelibisyon. Sa halip, ang sofitel ang lumalabag sa isang desisyon ng NTC na ang UNTV ay isang “must carry” channel kagaya ng ibang local channel sa Pilipinas.

      Kung ang ABS-CBN Lingkod Kapamilya at GMA Kapuso Foundation ang nag sabi ng nakakatulong sila sa mga nasalanta ng mga kalamidad, panunumbat ba yon? Hindi naman siguro. Sa pagsasabi mo ba na tumulong ka e nangangahulugan na naghihintay ka ng kapalit? Hindi rin siguro.

      Ang Boycott ba eh maituturing na isang paghihiganti, lalong hindi. Boycott is just a staement na hindi ka sangayon sa ginawa ng isang individual o entity. Sa isang establishment na nagdedescriminate ng iba, dapat lang yun sa kanila.

  5. ang alam ko jan sir nagbbayad ang untv para sa mga cable channel sa ibat ibang lugar,,,nagbabaad sa mga cable operator then para putulin /alisin nila ung channel thats unaffair para sa mga partner nito logically it dictates some discrimination to some people,,,pagba pumasok sa sofitel puru untv mapapanuod nila? hind naman so,,,anung kaso bakit tinanggal ito ?maraming channel ang cable nyo bat un ang inalis? kung mag boycott man ang mga tao hind na natin maalis s knila un

  6. @ Arkhae – Natulungan din ako ng UNTV, wala namang panunumbat sa pagsasabing public service channel kasi yun naman talaga ang ginagawa nila, Paano kaya malalaman ng mahihirap na tao na may Charity sa UNTV kung di nila sasabihin at isesecret lang nila na may medical mission sila.

  7. If a hotel doesn’t have the tv channel that you want then don’t go to it. Basically, ang mga tao ba pumupunta ng hotel para manood lang ng TV? I think they would rather sleep, read and surf the net. Yung mga pumupunta ba ng hotel naghahanap ng charity na makakatulong sa kanila or tutulungan nila? I just really don’t see the point sa pag boycott ‘nyo. Chineck ‘nyo ba ung ibang hotel kung may telecast din na UNTV ‘nyo? kasi Sofitel lang ang pinupuntirya ‘nyo. If you’ve noticed, hindi nirereport sa news yang pag boycott ‘nyo kasi grupo ‘nyo lang yan. It doesn’t speak for all citizens.

    • I am a Citizen too, a viewer of UNTV, and currently in UAE. One of these days I’ll go home and find a decent hotel. Ofcourse I’ll sleep, read, check my email, and eat… and watch TV… and so on. I work abroad and I don’t have the chance to help people because nationals here are richer than me so going home is my Chance to Charity. My point to boycott Sofitel is on behalf of Pilipino Citizens who support Charity and Humanity. Oh My dear! I stayed in different hotels there and YES I can watch UNTV ( I prefer this channel than watching shows in big channels with half naked ladies!) “What you can see is only small, round view of a sky inside the well… try to climb up and see the vast, entirety, and wonder of our sky” =)

My point to boycott Sofitel is on behalf of Pilipino Citizens who support Charity and Humanity. Oh My dear! I stayed in different hotels there and YES I can watch UNTV ( I prefer this channel rather than watching shows in big channels with half naked ladies!) and I suppose I know why other channels do not report this boycott and I suppose you know also the answer. “What you can see is only small, round view of a sky inside the well… try to climb up and see the vast, entirety, and wonder of the sky”.

      • Like I’ve said, then don’t go to Sofitel! Go to the hotels you said have this channel. It’s as easy as that. I think the reason why none of the channels here publicized your issue is because like me, they don’t agree with you and that what you’re fighting for is just for your group. Also, if you really want to help a charity or whoever, then don’t find an excuse. It doesn’t matter where you live or what group you belong to just as long as you have the sincere intention to help. Like me, I just go online to donate. Try visiting World Vision Philippines 🙂

        • 1. I agree to that and thanks for supporting their campaign to boycott Sofitel by suggesting such (not to go there).

          2. I agree they are not mentioning (other channels) UNTV – Sofitel discrimination issue however, other form of discrimination issue was published by Ira Pedrasa, ABS-CBNnews.com

          3. What group do you mean anyway? boycott sofitel group? senior citizen group?

          4. Excuse? excuse me! you are on my way…my way of helping people is different than your point of view. kindly review my phrases up there I said I don’t have a chance for charity here because nationals are richer than me (you can not see them wandering around and asking for alms or medical attention) I am a nurse for your information. I need an action, so move a side! you are on my way out from a narrow and deep well of yours- I want to see the whole sky up there!

  8. Kapag di napaboran ng isang kumpanya ang ADD, dinidikdik ito hanggang sa madurog. Pero pag napaboran, halos itinatayo pa sa convention center nila sa Apalit at papalakpakan na parang Diyos palibhasa meron silang habol sa mga ito. Removal of UNTV from the list of channels are Sofitel’s business and not ADD. UNTV doesn’t deserve to be reinstated, ugali niong mapangboycott pag di nio nagustuhan ay asal di Kristiano. All hotels in the Philippines must boycott UNTV and remove them from the channel list. No foreigner even dare to watch programs of UNTV unless he or she’s an ADD cult member because UNTV’s programs are of no quality and sense.

  9. @IZAKYAKOV …UNTV’s programs are of no quality and sense? therefore, you claim yourself as quality and with sense? Sa pagkakaalam ko ang mga tv station pag nagbabalita may may source o basis… eh yung report mo po anong source at basis? sabi mo pa no foreigner even to dare to watch UNTV??? nag survey ka po ba? ang alam ko kasi basta hindi filipino citizen ang tawag po foreigner..linahat mo sila so natanong mo po sila lahat? just asking…
