Sought-after TV\u00a0host\u00a0Rovilson Fernandez\u00a0<\/strong>remains a\u00a0loyal\u00a0Kapuso after 12 years as he\u00a0renews his contract with GMA Network\u00a0on\u00a0October 18.<\/p>\n

Joining Fernandez in the signing were GMA Network Chairman and Chief Executive Officer\u00a0Atty.\u00a0Felipe L. Gozon<\/strong>; Senior Vice President for News and Public Affairs\u00a0Marissa L. Flores<\/strong>; and Senior Assistant Vice President for Public Affairs\u00a0Neil B. Gumban<\/strong>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cSi Rovilson ay isa sa mga popular at pinakamagaling na host natin kaya tayo\u2019y natutuwa na pinili na naman niya tayo para ipagpatuloy ang pagiging host niya sa \u2018Ang Pinaka\u2019. Ang kailangan sa \u2018Pinaka\u2019 ay pinaka rin ang mag-hohost,\u201d Atty. Gozon expressed.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, Rovilson shared how grateful he is to be with the Kapuso Network for over a decade now. \u201cJust an absolute blessing. I\u2019ve been happily employed by GMA and I\u2019m going on twelve years now since the QTV days. It\u2019s \u00a0been nice to be part of this family. This moment is the kind of contract signing I would see on TV or on the newspapers, and for them to extend the same courtesy to me as well and to our show, I\u2019m so grateful.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rovilson hosts\u00a0the\u00a0award-winning and long-running infotainment program\u00a0\u201cAng Pinaka\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0on GMA News TV.\u00a0<\/strong>Every week,\u00a0Ang Pinaka<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0lists down\u00a0the top 10 of\u00a0 anything worth “listing”, touching on topics that range from pop culture, entertainment, politics, travel, food, social media, music, trivia, and others.<\/p>\n

Now on its phenomenal 15th<\/sup>\u00a0year\u00a0<\/strong>on Philippine television,\u00a0some of the topics the show featured\u00a0were the oddest proposed bills and ordinances, amazing animals with super powers, national historical figures, amazing natural wonders, urban legends, and popular showbiz love teams, among others.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat is the genius of our writers and our production team,\u201d Rovilson proudly expressed. \u201cThey still keep it fresh\u2014we\u2019ve literally aired brand new episodes every week for 52 weeks, and rarely do we have repeat episodes. That\u2019s just kudos to them for always reinventing the show. I have the easy job; I just get to basically read out their work and, of course, what is vital is the participation of our viewers and our readers. We always engage them and they let us know what they want to watch and that\u2019s what keeps it fresh.\u201d<\/p>\n

Aside from hosting, Rovilson is also an appointed National Peace Ambassador of the country, the Philippines\u2019 first National Ambassadors for World Wide Fund (WWF) along with Marc Nelson. He is also Hong Kong & Singapore Tourism Board\u2019s Ambassador of Goodwill to the Philippines and Earth Hour Philippines Ambassador.<\/p>\n
