Comedian Pokwang is now a certified Kapuso after signing a contract with GMA Network. Pokwang signed the contract in the GMA Artist Center on Friday, June 18.

This is after she also became the mainstay of Kapamilya Network for several years. After the closure of her mother network, the ABS-CBN, Pokwang was also seen on TV 5.

At the media conference held for her, Pokwang said to the entertainment writers the reason why she decided to transfer to another network.


Pokwang admitted that she was the one who decided to transfer to GMA Network to become a Kapuso star.

In fact, according to Pokwang, she started having communication with GMA Network in 2019.

She shared,

“Actually ako ‘yung nagpapasalamat kasi sila ‘yung nag-yes sa akin.

“Ako talaga ‘yung lumapit since 2019 pa, 2019 pa kami naguusap-usap and, in all fairness naman, binuksan nila ang kanilang mga braso sa akin. Thank you.”


Pokwang also said she decided to do it because she wanted to continue sharing her talent and inspire everyone.

“Kasi, siyempre bilang artista, marami pa akong gustong i-share. Marami pa akong gustong gawin. Marami pa akong iano sa aking mga followers.”

Pokwang, on the other hand, became emotional when she expressed her gratitude for the opportunity given to her by her new home network.

According to the actress, the reason why she transfers to GMA Network is to do various projects while she still has the energy to work.

Pokwang emotionally said,

“Thank you po, maipagpapatuloy ko po ang gusto kong gawin bilang artista. Salamat po sa paniniwala ninyo sa akin.

“Isa pong malaking karangalan po na mapabilang ako sa tahanang ito. Maraming salamat po."

Pokwang will not be waiting long to have a project on GMA 7 because she was chosen to be one of the casts of the prequel of "Pepito Manaloto" called "Unang Kwento."
