MONICO O. PUENTEVELLA

Our winning athletes never had it so good. Cash bonanza never seen in history before, coming from Malacañang, POC, PSC, and private sponsors, not only for Olympic sports, but even non-traditional games never heard or seen before like sambo, underwater hockey, kurash, obstacle course, sibol, esports, floorball, etc etc. Good for them, coz they might not see the light of day in the next SEA Games two years from now in Vietnam, who will also do the same trick we did last week. At least they have some savings this Xmas until they see the revival of their sporting events whenever and wherever that will be. Cause I’m pretty sure, we won’t see most of them in the next SEA Games. Cause the Seagames is basically WEATHER WEATHER. Who ever hosts the Games will runaway with the over all crown by a mile. Our problem, especially if Olympic sports shall prevail, is how to get out of fourth, fifth, or sixth place, just like before. Let’s just enjoy the next two years while we have it. Mabuhay!
