What is kapamilya in English?

"Kapamilya" is a Filipino word that literally translates to "family member."

However, it has a specific meaning in the context of Philippine media and entertainment:

* It's a term used by ABS-CBN, a major Philippine television and media company, to refer to its loyal viewers and supporters.

* It signifies a sense of belonging and community, emphasizing the close relationship between ABS-CBN and its audience.

So, while a direct translation might be "family member," the closest English equivalent would be "fan" or "supporter".
