History
Kasangga Mo Ang Langit was first aired on July 10, 1998, via Radio Philippines Network. Rey Langit, who had an unsuccessful senatorial bid in the 1998 Presidential Elections through the Partido ng Demokratikong Reporma–Lapiang Manggagawa (Reporma–LM), was joined by his late son Reyster Langit.[2]
On June 3, 2005 Reyster died of heart failure due to cerebral malaria, a disease he contracted while on assignment in Palawan.[3] Following his death, Rey's surviving son, JR, has since joined him not only for Kasangga Mo Ang Langit but also for Biyaheng Langit.
