Whenever there's a Palarong Pambansa, NCR always bag the
over-all champ compared to other regions. And recently, NCR did it again for the nth time, as in "ninth" time.
Then, here comes Southeast Asian Games (SEA Games) or ASIAN
Games where Thailand and China always dominate the event, respectively. We
expect the PHL to compete well and top the event.
But the question is, where is the support?
Where is the funding?
Going back to Palarong Pambansa, I am sure NCR has the overflowing support that's why they
are consistent. Everything's important are in NCR, thus funding to it is widespread. It's a manifestation of government' allocation of subsidy which is unequal. If
we cannot allocate enough funding to other region, for instance in sports
development, how can you expect them to compete well. Palarong Pambansa is a
waste of time. It is like showcasing NCR domination, not empowering sports
development from the grass roots of the country.
Just like in the case of the PHL, if we cannot support and fund well
the country to competition abroad, do not expect a competitive delegation. There's no sense of
competing at all, such a waste of money. Pakitang tao lang, makasali lang.
Like Palarong Pambansa, pakitang tao lang, makapagpalaro lang sa bansa wala naman quality output of athletes.
