Energy Food and Drink Inc. , owner of the original Barako Bull Energy Boosters franchise , had informed the PBA board on March 2011 that they intend to fold , citing the plan to shift their business strategy due to its ongoing lawsuit against TC Pharmaceuticals Industries Co. ( manufacturer of Red Bull in Thailand ) and the death of board governor Tony Chua at the height of Tropical Storm Ondoy ( Ketsana ) . Barako Bull had been on leave since the 2011 PBA Commissioner 's Cup and was planning to sell the franchise to Phoenix Petroleum Philippines , Inc. , the sponsor of the league 's games outside Metro Manila . On the PBA board meeting , the board disallowed the sale of the franchise to Phoenix , failing to get at least two-thirds of the ten board members , although they allowed Barako Bull to stay on leave until the 2011 PBA Governors Cup
