“Well, hopefully it is fair and equitable agreement that will not be for the disadvantage of Mahalima, imagine how it caused so much pain to so many people that were impacted. You wouldn't like to be in the same shoes with TAPE who lost their trademark to TVJ. SB19 is Pablo, Josh, Stell, Ken, and Justin and it was never about ShowBT,” a fan wrote in the comment section.
