After almost two years of generally no competitions due to the pandemic, the Hanoi Southeast Asian Games is serving its purpose as a springboard for Filipino athletes to warm up for the 2023 Hangzhou Asian Games and the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Southeast Asian Games
That is the reason the sports-funding agency has given its full financial backing to the country’s participation not just in the Hanoi Games where it released over P230 million to fuel the country’s campaign but also the 2023 edition in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. “Our medalists who will go through qualification for the 2024 Olympics will get the preparation that they need here in the SEA Games, in the Asian Games and other high-level international games,’’ said Mr. Ramirez.
Mr. Ramirez has again expressed his gratitude to President Duterte, the House of Representatives and the Senate, the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation and the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office for providing full backing to the SEA Games campaign.
