My Answers to Hero TV Viewers' Survey

Naibalita ko this week ang tungkol sa pagsasagawa ng Hero TV, ang Tagalog-dubbed anime channel ng Creative Programs, Inc. (subsidiary ng ABS-CBN) ng kanilang kauna-unahang viewers’ survey. Ito ay sa layunin ng naturang channel na mapagsilbihang lalo ang mga manonood nito, lalo na ang mga anime fans. Makatitiyak daw ang mga sasagot sa naturang survey na ito ay makakarating sa management ng Hero TV ang ating mga komento at suhestiyon.

Keep up the good work. Sapat na sa akin ang sagutin ang 11 tanong. Nariyan na lahat ang mga nais kong sabihin. More manpower na lang siguro ang mahihiling ko. Pati na rin mabuting ugnayan sa pagitan ng mga namumuno (management, forum admins, mods) at ng mga viewers at forum members. Habaan ang pasensya ninyo sa mga tanong at inquiry na ibinabato ko sa kanila.

Nasa sa inyo kung gusto ninyong sumagot sa aking post (sa survey na ito).
