Nakikita natin dito na pinaiiral ang self-regulation ng mga produksiyon in line with the MTRCB’s policy.
Isusunod na rin ba yung mga nagpapalabas ng mga diretsahang live show acts online? Under whose jurisdiction yung ganito?
Tingnan natin kung may agarang epekto itong mga MOA na ito sa mga lalabas na mga content!
