The other notable portion of the stake are still currently owned Far Eastern Managers and Investors Inc. (32%) and by the State (20%). The rest (14%) are owned by private individuals.

Once the agreement has been settled, which is expected to take place next month, Cabangon-Chua will named the new chairman of RPN 9. Moreover, Cabangon-Chua will replace the name of the network to Aliw Channel which suits the name of his radio network.
