Grace Poe Llamanzares, daughter of the late Fernando Poe Jr. (FPJ), will replace Consoliza Laguardia as Chairman of the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB).
The appointment of Llamanzares was revealed by Deputy Presidential spokesperson Abigail Valte. Emmanuel Borlaza, a movie director, is the newly appointed as MTRCB Vice-Chairman.
Here is Valte's statement in an interview in dzRB, a government-owned radio statio:
"Si Llamanzares ay dumaan sa screening natin.... may tiwala ang Pangulo ma-di-discharge niya ang function. Si direk Maning galing sa field na yan, so we trust na magiging… [good] additions [sila] sa MTRCB."
"Hindi naman po kailangan na taga-showbiz o naging isa kang artista para masabi na may kwalipikasyon. But from my personal recollection, Llmanzares is always involved sa [pag-archive] ng mga pelikula ng namayapa niyang ama... hindi po masasabi [na] dahil hindi siya artista, wala siyang karanasan sa magiging trabaho sa MTRCB."
The appointment of Llamanzares confirmed earlier reports that she was really President Benigno 'Noynoy' Aquino III's choice for the MTRCB post.
