“I’m a fan of the film [Heneral Luna], with its inspiring story, growing box office draw and following. The decision to launch this business channel was because we believed the Filipino viewer was hungry for elevated discourse, critical insights, and capable of turning knowledge into action–to do better. So you can say, we’re the ‘Heneral Luna’ of the business world in a sea of ‘Praybeyt Benjamins,” Pastrana explained on Facebook.
