Since October 3, 2016, the operations of GMA Ilocos (TV-5 Ilocos Norte, TV-7 Abra, TV-48 Ilocos Sur and TV-5 Mountain Province) was absorbed by the Dagupan station which led to simulcast Balitang Amianan and other regional interstitials, as well as some of the editorial and reportorial staff that are employed by the latter.
