      It’s easy. For years, TV5 was being funded through PLDT’s Trust Fund. TV5 itself is a commercial failure, and PLDT is currently in a very intense competition with their main rival, Globe, and the looming arrival of the Chinese telco (na for some reason e nawala din haha). So they have to cut losses here and there.
