Team Apo leads field in Ready-Set-RORO
The Cebu downpour did little to dampen the racers’ spirits in Ready-Set-RORO DBP Interisland Race 2008, as the nine remaining teams, led by Team Apo, hurtled forward to their next challenge over the weekend.
Team Apo, with schoolmates Cams Lozano and Kynz Flores and Pinoy Big Brother winner Beatriz Saw, rallied first to the finish, banking on Kynz’ familiarity with the area.
Team Anahaw, with dating students Chad Venades and Roxy Barrios and teen star Charee Pineda, unfortunately got rolled off.
It was barely morning when the teams were released from the Lite Shipping ferry with their Oakley bags in tow. Their clue was a 50-peso bill pointing them towards the Puente Osmeña Circle.
There they found another clue that instructed them to proceed to Colon St. with a sentence to be translated in Cebuano, after which they headed on to the pit stop at DBP Cebu.
Boy Dagondon, head of the Development Bank of the Philippines’ Super Region Management Office Central Philippines II, said DBP Cebu oversees the implementation of its Sustainable Logistics Development Program, making sure that the RORO infrastructures are in place for transport.
“The RORO changed the lives of the people in Cebu, in hastening the travel time from Cebu to the neighboring islands,” adds Dagondon.
