Lawmakers Michael Romero, Mark Aeron Sambar and Conrado Estrella 3rd promised to expedite the passing of a resolution that would transform the current Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) into a Department of Sports.

“We want to be proactive. It’s about time that we have a Department of Sports to be able to lay down a comprehensive program that may lead us to our quest for gold in the Olympic Games. It is the solution to solve this problem in sports. Let us try to be No. 1 again in Southeast Asia,” said Romero of Partylist Pacman 1, during the Top-Level Consultative Meeting on Development Plan for Philippine Sports at the Century Park Hotel on Thursday.
