Actors-turned-lawmakers, Senators Jinggoy Estrada and Ramon Revilla Jr., filed Senate Bills 2150 and 2385, respectively.In his explanatory note, Estrada noted the "pervasiveness" of piracy in the country which he said severely hampers the growth of the creative economy and lead to loss of jobs or displacement of workers."here is a need to establish regulations and effective mechanisms to protect intellectual property rights.
The proposed amendments contemplate the new issues which enfeeble their growth and progress," Revilla said in his explanatory note.Both measures were already referred to the Senate committee on trade, commerce, and entrepreneurship but these have yet to be tackled and deliberated since 2023.
