Actor-director Cesar Montano is now a member of the Optical Media Board (OMB), a government regulatatory body that sees to it that illegal reproduction of optical media is penalized.

In a news article published by the Manila Bulletin today, February 1, the action star was reportedly appointed by President Benigno Aquino III to take on a post in the anti-piracy squad.

With occupying his first government post comes Cesar's responsibility of combating film and music piracy with OMB chairman and actor Ronnie Rickets.
