“All of them were struck by the typhoon and yet they will be taking part here. It’s a good sign from the athletes, to show that they’re on their way to recovery,” sabi ni PSC chairman Richie Garcia sa press confe­rence kahapon sa Grand Regal Hotel na dinaluhan din nina Negros Occidental Vice Gov. Eugenio Lacson. re­presentative Art Puentevella at Bacolod City Mayor Monico Puentevella.
