Sentro (Filipino word for "center") was an evening news broadcast of Associated Broadcasting Company in the Philippines anchored by Martin Andanar.
The newscast premiered on April 12, 2004, replacing Balitang Balita. It was first anchored by John Susi and Ali Sotto. On October 2, 2006, the newscast exchanged timeslots with Big News, the evening news program of the network. Susi and Sotto were replaced by Martin Andanar, who became the final anchor of the newscast.
On June 25, 2007, Sentro was reformatted into an all-English news show, despite the retention of the name and some of the opening text and ending reminders still in Filipino. This used to be the language of Big News from 1962 until 1972 and again from 1992 until 2004 before its main language was changed to Filipino in 2004.
On August 8, 2008, Sentro, together with Big News aired its final broadcast.
