International Treaties and Convention: A part of theRadio Laws and Regulations

Under the international law, the InternationalRadio Regulation binds the Philippines being one of thesignatories at the administrative radio conference at Genevain 1959. Messrs. Jose Alfonso, F. Trinidad, GuillermoCanon, and A.P.B. Frago were the Philippinerepresentatives who signed for the Republic of thePhilippines the International Radio Regulations as annexedto the International Telecommunications Convention whichtook effect on May 1, 1961.

In the World Administrative Telegraph andTelephone Conference held in Geneva, Switzerland from

April 2 to April 11, 1973 under the auspices of theInternational Telecommunications Union, Messrs. CeferinoS. Carrreon and Manuel B. Casas were the Philippinedelegates who affixed their signatures on the Telegraph andTelephone Regulations and the final Protocol.

The latest conference of representative delegates of154 member countries of the InternationalTelecommunications Union (ITU) was held in Geneva onSeptember 24, 1979 for the World Administrative RadioConference (WARC 79). The primary objective was tokeep pace with scientific and technical progress in radio

communications by continuously revising the general provisions of the International Radio Regulations.

Constitution of the Philippines: A source of Radio Lawsand Regulations

Certain provisions of the Constitution particularlythe provisions on franchise and the Bill of Rights shouldserve as a guide in the interpretation of the Radio Laws andRegulations. Thus, the Philippine Constitution provides that

no franchise or rights should be granted to any individual,firm or corporation except under the condition that it shall be subject to amendment, alteration, or repeal by theCongress when the common good so requires. It further

provides that no franchise, certificate, or any other form ofauthorization for the operation of public utility shall begranted except to citizens of the Philippines, nor shall otherentities organized under the laws of the Philippines, sixty

per centum of the capital of which is owned by citizens ofthe Philippines, nor shall such franchise, certificate, orauthorization be exclusive in character or for a longer

period that fifty years. A person therefore who wishes toobtain a radio franchise must be subject to these provisionsof the constitution. (Article XII, Sec. 11, PhilippineConstitution)

The New Philippine Constitution provides thatThe ownership and management of mass media shall belimited to citizens of the Philippines or to corporation orassociations wholly owned and managed by such citizens.(Article XVI, Sec. 11). Under this provision, therefore,

broadcast stations should be owned by citizens of thePhilippines or by corporations or associations whollyowned and managed by Filipino citizens

The governing body of every entity engaged incommercial telecommunications shall in all cases becontrolled by citizens of the Philippines. (Article XV, Sec.7, New Philippine Constitution) The State may, in theinterest of national welfare or defense, establish andoperate xxx vital industries and upon payment of justcompensation, transfer to public ownership utilities andother private enterprises to be operated by the Government.(Article XII, Sec. 189 ibid)

The State shall regulate or prohibit monopolieswhen the public interest so requires. (Article XII, Sec. 19,Philippine Constitution)

Furthermore, the Congress shall regulate or prohibit monopolies in commercial mass media when the public interest so requires, no combinations in restraint of

trade or unfair competition therein shall be allowed.(Article XVI, Sec. 11, Philippine Constitution). On theother hand, it is provided in the Bill of Rights of thePhilippine Constitution that no person shall be deprived of

property without the due process of law. Hence, therevocation or disapproval of the application for a renewalof radio station license or operators license cannot belegally done without affording the license of theopportunity to be heard.
