Commissioners for NTC requested to withdraw from the SMNI franchise matter

Philippines' Manila Sonshine Media Network International (SMNI), a suspended network, requested that the National Telecommunications Commission order its commissioners to recuse themselves from the network's case pertaining to a franchise violation.
