History
After the cable television industry in the Philippines began in 1969 with the founding of Nuvue Cablevision (founded by American expatriate Russel Swartley) in Baguio, businessman Ramon "Jun" Magsaysay Jr. (son of the late President Ramon Magsaysay) followed the footsteps of Swartley's legacy. After spending his 4-year tenure as Congressman representing the lone district of Zambales and returning to work in the private sector, he founded Colorview CATV in Olongapo, Zambales.[1]
In 1977, Magsaysay expanded his cable business into the Southern Tagalog region by establishing Quezon CATV in Lucena.
In 1986, after the historic EDSA People Power Revolution where Corazon Aquino was elected president and toppled the regime of Ferdinand Marcos, Magsaysay established Batangas CATV in Batangas City.
