Beginning October 18, GMA Public Affairs brings both Serbisyong Totoo and good vibes to viewers as it launches the fresh and fast-paced news magazine program “Dapat Alam Mo!” airing weekdays at 5:30 p.m. on GTV.

Dapat Alam Mo!  is anchored by Emil SumangilPatricia Tumulak, and new Kapuso Kuya Kim Atienza.

One of GMA News’ most senior reporters, Emil brings with him two decades of broadcast journalism experience. He is considered a veteran of the police beat covering exclusive after exclusive of the biggest headlines of the day. Having been at the forefront many times, his reports from the field have been providing viewers a closer look at the news by immersing in the conflict and plight of the personalities and regular people he covers.

As news anchor of Dapat Alam Mo!, Emil not only delivers the news of the day but also extends Serbisyong Totoo to viewers in need of help.

“Ever since I started in the industry, nais ko nang ipadama sa taumbayan na ang paghahatid ng balita ay hindi lang para sa impormasyon, kundi para maghatid din ng serbisyo publiko,” said Emil. “Dito sa programang Dapat Alam Mo!, naglaan kami ng oras para tugunan ang mga hinaing na ‘yan ng ating mga kababayan.”

Emil calls the attention of authorities and concerned groups to resolve concerns raised by viewers. And during calamities, he leads Dapat Alam Mo! to coordinate with government and private groups for rescue and relief operations.

“Galing na ako sa iba’t ibang sulok ng bansa, marahil lahat na rin ng klase ng tao ay aking nakasalamuha. Kahit papaano, tumatak na sa isipan ko ang kanilang pinagdaraanan at pangunahing pangangailangan. Sa ganitong paraan, mas komprehensibo nating malilikha ang isang istorya na siyempre daglian natin ipaparating sa mga kinauukulan,” he added.

Meanwhile, already a familiar face on television, Patricia embraces a new chapter in her career as one of Dapat Alam Mo!  hosts. She joins Emil in giving viewers light, feel-good features that are sure to inspire and entertain.

For her, Dapat Alam Mo!  is an answered prayer. “It’s always been my dream to become an anchor for GMA News and Public Affairs. This is what I’ve prayed for, envisioned, and dreamed about. I am beyond blessed,” she shared.
