The Philippine Delegates in Beijing Olympics 2008 (A Fight for Money?)

The Philippine Delegates in Beijing Olympics 2008 made a courtesy call to our President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo on August 1, 2008. Wishing them goodluck and congratulations as well as encouragement to bring a Gold Medal for our country.
Hoping this would be the first Gold Medal from Beijing Olympics 2008. The Philippines has been participating in the World Games since 1924, but has come up with only nine medals and none of them gold.
In the history of our country, Mansueto ”Onyok” Velasco was the last to return home with a silver medal from the Atlanta Olympics in 1996.
The Beijing Olympics 2008 will start from August 8 and will end on 24. We are sending 15 athletes who will compete in eight sports disciplines such as weightlifting, boxing, swimming, athletics, taekwondo, archery, diving and shooting.
Here’s the list of our athletes participating in Beijing Olympics 2008: They are Hidilyn Diaz (weightlifting); Henry Tanamor (boxing); Daniel Coakley, and Christel Simms (swimming); Henry Dagmil and Maristella Torres (athletics); Tshomlee Go and Mary Antoinette Rivero (taekwondo); Mark Javier (archery); Miguel Molina, James Wlsh, Ryan Arabejo, Rexel Ryan Fabriga and Sheila Mae Perez (diving); and Eric Ang (shooting).
Facts :
Eric Santos will sing in Beijing Olympics 2008
The President gave $1000 allowance per athlete
The Philippine Olympic Commission had announced that the athlete who wins the first Philippine Olympic gold will receive P10.5 million while the President added P4.5 million, a total of cash pot to P15 million
Thoughts:
For many years, our country is aiming for an olympic gold medal, but we always fail. Where do you think is the main cause of this failure? In our athletes or in the Philippine Olympic Commission? Did they provide enough facilities to train our athletes?
Do the Philippine Delegates in Beijing Olympics 2008 will fight for money or for our country? Does the government needs to offer money for success?

Juler oo nga sarap ng feeling. Pinakamataas sia ngayon sa akin nilagpasan ang Boy Bastos ko ng ilang araw din hahaha.
Obsolete kasi lahat sa Pinas. Walang gamit sa training na pang-worldclass kaya pagdating sa Olympics, wala tayong binatbat. Sana gastusin na lang sa training yung milyon imbes na gawing papremyo ng gold medalist.

whether it is for money, fame or love of country, it doesn’t matter. what’s important is the way they play. dapat fair lang. wag mandadaya.
dapat fair lang… but it would be better kung makapag-uuwi sila ng mga gintong medalya bilang pasalubong para sa ating mga umaasang kababayan. right, guys?

I think the athletes should not be expecting monetary rewards at all. Instead, they should take pride in being able to represent their country and motivate themselves to win.

I think they should and take pride in being able to present their country.
Very well said Reyn and Lhurey. =)
