Editor-in-Chief Roby Alampay received the Excellence award for “InterAksyon.com: Saan man, Kailan man, Kapatid” at the recently concluded 10th Philippine Quill Awards of the International Association of Business Communicators (IABC) Philippines.

After just eight months of operations, TV5’s online news portal InterAksyon.com has launched Traffic Navigator (TNAV) – a joint project with the Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) – the first and only web application in the country that delivers real-time traffic situation in nine major roads in Metro Manila. InterAksyon also offers a comprehensive and more relevant weather forecast and includes one of the most popular sports sites in the country, InterAKTV. With all the special features of TV5’s news portal, InterAksyon still delivers 24-hour coverage of all major news and events relevant to Filipinos here and abroad.

The Philippine Quill is awarded to excellent communication tools and campaigns that help an organization achieve its business goals. Interaksyon.com competed in the Communication Skill division under the category of electronic and digital communication.
