Multi-awarded news anchor and radio host Mike Enriquez is looking forward to more years of ‘Serbisyong Totoo’ after renewing his contract with GMA Network on Feb 13.
Present during the contract signing were GMA Network Chairman and CEO Felipe L. Gozon, President and COO Gilberto R. Duavit, Jr., EVP and CFO Felipe S. Yalong, and SVP for News and Public Affairs Marissa L. Flores.
Enriquez, who is also the president of RGMA Network, shared how he still looks forward to working with the leading broadcast company in the coming years.
“Tuloy-tuloy lang ang pagbibigay ng Serbisyong Totoo lalo na sa panahon ngayon na marami pang mga pagbabago na magaganap sa GMA. Kaya exciting na nakapirma na naman tayo ng kontrata dahil marami pa tayong proyektong gagawin,” he said.
GMA’s top management, in turn, recognized Enriquez’ unmatched competence, both in his work as a broadcast journalist and as an executive in the Network.
“Si Mike, if I recall correctly, siya na ang pinakamatagal na TV newscaster dito,” Gozon shared. “Palagay natin dito sa GMA ay siya na ang pinakamagaling na TV newscaster at radio anchor. Ang pinaka importante sa lahat, ang integrity at fairness ni Mike whether on cam or off cam, ay unquestionable,” he added.
Enriquez, who is the only Asian and only Filipino so far to win the Best Newscaster Award in the Asian Television Awards, co-anchors GMA’s flagship news program, 24 Oras, and hosts the investigative public affairs program Imbestigador. He is also heard on Super Radyo DZBB’s programs – Saksi sa Dobol B, Super Balita sa Umaga Nationwide, and Imbestigador sa DZBB.
