[ICT Researcher]

Using this precedent, what would stop each of every the remainder of television broadcasters also demanding a license? On the grounds that every (corporate) person is equal before the law? Just wondering.

So the court finds cck was illegal, and its actions null and void, yet riding on the same nullify, the court proceeds to take over the CAK's presumed mandate and, sorry to say but ironically arbitrarily, without complying with any due process (since it had nullified the cck one that awarded pang and signet licenses) proceeds to award the media a license uncompetitively while depriving Pang? Isnt this synonymous with stealing from one and giving to another? Am Damned if this is justice.
