also, a few months ago, ABS-CBN has relaunched its main bulletin, TV Patrol World, which reverted to its original name, "TV Patrol" (in fact, the original TV Patrol logo appears at the start of the sequence):

Speaking of TV Patrol, here is a description of this unique newscast's first reincarnation -- from Timothy Green's 1972 book
The Universal Eye: World Television in the Seventies
:
"In the early evening ABS-CBN run a two-hour programme called Patrol which is really just a public noticeboard for the city of Manila. All kinds of local titbits turn up. Insurance agents are advised that their exams have been postponed. Boy scouts are told where to report to a jamboree. Payment is offered for 500 cc of a rare type of blood urgently required to help a fourteen-year-old boy suffering from bone cancer; anyone who can offer a transfusion is asked to phone the studio immediately. Even photographs and descriptions of several children missing from home in the slums of Manila are given. Patrol calls itself 'the public serviceprogramme that makes a city move' and it outranks the imported Bonanza in the ratings."
