This July, the Philippine Heritage Map shall feature several milestones in Philippine History. On October 23, 1953, Alto Broadcasting Television (ABS) launched DZAQ-TV, marking the first-ever official telecast in the country. This first-ever broadcast was aired at the residence of Judge Antonio Quirino at Sitio Alto. DZAQ-TV started on a four-hour-a-day schedule, from six to ten in the evening, with programs ranging from borrowed films from embassies, imported cowboy movies, the actual coverage of a variety of events, and even stage plays – the first of which is the Cyrano de Bergerac, a play produced by Father James Reuter.
