00:00Hello, sa presidiyosong Icons of Change International Awards 2025,
00:04ang ating PTV News Tonight anchor, Charms Espina.
00:07Yan ang ulat ni Gal Villegas.
00:11Pinarangalan sa katatapos lamang na Icons of Change International Awards 2025,
00:17ang PTV News Tonight anchor na si Charms Espina
00:20bilang changemaker for public trust, ethical journalism, and community advocacy
00:26sa ilalim ng Sustainable Development Goal 16 na Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions.
00:32Sa kanyang acceptance speech, ikinagulat ni Charms ang paggawad sa kanya ng parangal.
00:37This is a celebration of visionaries and changemakers
00:42who stand together to create meaningful and lasting change.
00:46And I think that's why it's so important, especially broadcast journalists like myself
00:52and everyone in media or has an impact to a lot of people,
00:56that you make sure that you stand for something significant.
01:00I have always stood for one of my biggest advocacies,
01:04which is environmental protection and conservation and animal rights.
01:10And being in media, especially in government media, is so important
01:14because you need to talk about the truth.
01:17We have a mandate to not just inform and educate the people
01:21about what government programs are being imparted to the people,
01:26but also to let people understand issues and the truth,
01:31what matters to them, so that they make better choices.
01:34That's the power of responsible media.
01:36It turns information into action, and action then turns into change.
01:42Dagdag pa niya, may kakayahan ang bawat tao na makagawa ng pagbabago sa mundo.
01:48Bukod pa sa responsable at malayang pamamahayag,
01:51personal rin na isinusulong ni Charms ang pangangalaga sa kalikasan at ang animal welfare.
01:57Nagpaabot rin ng mensahe si PTV General Manager Maria Lourdes Choa Fagar
02:02para sa nakamit na tagumpay ni Charms bilang isang changemaker.
02:06This recognition of our commitment to truth and transparency
02:10goes to the very heart of our mission as the country's state news network.
02:17Charms, your integrity and dedication represent the best of who we are,
02:22and we take immense pride in celebrating this achievement with you.
