TV Patrol Palawan (formerly Palawan TV Patrol) was a local news program of ABS-CBN Regional in Palawan, an island province under the Mimaropa region in the Philippines but considered as a separate television market. The newscast delivers news headlines about current events in the province's capital Puerto Princesa City and its surrounding areas. The newscast aired on ABS-CBN Regional transmitters across the province at 5:00 PM from Monday to Friday. It is also simulcast on radio via DYAP Radyo Patrol 765 Palawan and MOR 99.9 For Life!. TV Patrol Palawan was the only local television newscast produced by a major network. It has been given a Special Citation for Best Regional News Program in the 2014 UPLB Gandingan Awards,[1] and was a finalist for the Best News Program (Provincial) in the 2013 KBP's Golden Dove Awards. It also produces its bulletin version News Patrol Palawan airing several times a day every weekdays.

History

As Palawan TV Patrol (1997–2006)

As part of its expansion in the various regions of the Philippines, ABS-CBN set up various regional stations and affiliates throughout Luzon in 1996. That year, the network had an affiliate station in Palawan through DYPR-TV, a broadcast station established by the Palawan Broadcasting Corporation in 1965, and was launched as Palawan TV Patrol.

In 2002, Palawan TV Patrol obtained material on what was later known as the last TV interview of ABS-CBN personality Rico Yan who arrived at Palawan for the Holy Week break days before his untimely death. Footage was re-aired nationally on the ABS-CBN News Channel days after his death.

In 2006, Palawan TV Patrol covered the worst kind of flooding ever to hit Palawan. On February 24 of the same year, the newscast ended its 9-year run. Afterwards, the station downgraded into a direct relay of DWWX-TV Manila.

As TV Patrol Palawan (2011-present)

Mendizabal-Saunar era

On October 7, 2011, ABS-CBN reopened the station as an originating outlet, allowing to produce local content for the province once again.

Following the relaunch of ABS-CBN Palawan is the return of its local newscast as TV Patrol Palawan, which premiered on the same day. Kris Saunar was the first anchor, later joined by Butch Mendizabal. Saunar did his first special assignment abroad by interviewing Palaweño OFWs that maintain business outside the Philippines. Mendizabal has two special assignments: one about the two giant crocodiles named "Valentino and Valentina" caught in the town of Bataraza on Valentines Day 2012; and the other on the Tapping of the Cast of Born Legacy in the Town of Coron. Mendizabal also introduced the Ronda Probinsya segment, where it features provincial stories outside Palawan but relevant to Palaweños. Saunar and Mendizabal both left the program in April 2012.

Zabanal–Dela Cruz era

In May 2012, reporters Lynette dela Cruz, a proud Cuyonon, and Jay Zabanal a native of Palawan with Agutaynen roots, replaced Saunar and Mendizabal, respectively.

Dela Cruz currently presents two segments: Choose Palawan: Sariling Atin, a segment featuring the beauty of places, food, souvenirs, and other products made in Palawan; and Homework, where it teaches basic Cuyonon, a native language in Palawan, to the average Palaweño. Zabanal, meanwhile, presents Abante Palawan Special Report, a segment addressing different issues within the community that the province need to resolve.

Every Friday, the program broadcasts reports outside the studio in every barangay in Palawan. This concept led to the launch of the Barangay Patrol segment.

Zabanal era

Dela Cruz left the newscast from July 31, 2015, leaving Zabanal as the solo anchor from August 3, though the former continues to sit-in for the latter.

On January 16, 2017, TV Patrol Palawan updated its logo and graphics and its lower thirds are changed to Gotham font to match the national TV Patrol. This is the tenth newscast to update its graphics. Today, it is also the first and only regional edition to upgrade its production to High Definition. Cameras and studio facilities are widescreen-ready, but rescaled to suit in the 4:3 ratio output.

On April 27, 2020, the program started its live simulcast over MOR 99.9 Puerto Princesa, Palawan For Life!, becoming the third TV Patrol Regional newscast to simulcast on both a Radyo Patrol and an MOR station.

The newscast temporarily suspended airings for the second time from May 5 until May 7, 2020, as a result of the cease and desist order of the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) to stop the broadcasting operations of ABS-CBN, but the newscast resumed on May 8, 2020 via Facebook's live streaming platform Facebook Live and YouTube, the newscast aired its final episode on August 28, 2020 as a result of retrenchments after bills for the renewal of ABS-CBN's franchise was denied by the Congress of the Philippines.[2]
