Controversy

The Commission on Audit (COA), in its audit findings, noted that there is a memorandum of agreement on file between the tourism department and the government-owned station requiring PTNI to air a 6-minute tourism advertisement section in PTVs Kilos Pronto, plus a 3-minute DOT spot within the program.^[2] This has been criticized, since at the time of the memorandum the Department of Tourism Secretary was Wanda Tulfo Teo sister of the hosts of the show.
