“Opo totoo ang balita na ako po ay na suspended sa DZRH dahil sa video na ito. Naintindihan ko po ang desisyon ng DZRH News Television dahil meron silang pamantayan na sinusunod bilang isang miyembro ng KBP. Gayun pa man ang boses ng ordianryong [sic] Pilipino ay patuloy kong isisgaw dito sa ating Blog. Maraming Salamat,” she wrote.

Just this week, Mocha backed out of a speaking engagement with the Philippine Army’s Senior Leaders’ Conference (SLC) after she suffered backlash online after posting the invite on her social media accounts. A source later told Philippine Daily Inquirer that the invitation for Mocha was actually recalled after the army bosses became displeased that Mocha posted the said invitation online.
