Yeng salutes Gilas for FIBA feat
CITY OF SAN FERNANDO — The coach in him and the championship spirit still burn fervently even if the challenges of legislative work take the fore.
This came as First District Representative Joseller “Yeng” Guiao on Monday filed before the 16th Congress House Resolution 188 congratulating and commending the Gilas Pilipinas Men’s Basketball Team for their second place finish in the recent 27th FIBA Asia Championship held at “The Arena” of the SM Mall of Asia in Pasay City.
In his resolution, Guiao noted that “the House of Representatives has, on several occasions, recognized and paid tribute to outstanding achievement by Filipinos who have brought honor to the country by excelling in their fields of sports.”
He said that Team Gilas Pilipinas ably represented the country in the recently concluded FIBA Asian Championships held in Manila from August 1 to 11, where it bested 14 other powerhouse teams to earn a spot in the 2014 FIBA World Cup Championships which will be held in Spain.
The Philippine squad settled for the silver, bowing only to 2007 and 2009 FIBA champion Iran in the finals, 83-67.
“Our victory is by no means an ordinary feat as the FIBA Asia Championships is known to be dominated by teams with significant height advantage and strong and talented players. What we lacked in height, our players made up with their indomitable spirit and huge ‘heart’ and eventually, their ‘never say die’ attitude proved to be the turning point, especially in the semi-finals match against South Korea, a team we have never beaten, until last Saturday, August 9,” said Guiao.
He added that the Team Gilas victory serves as an inspiration to all, that despite seemingly insurmountable odds, the Filipino spirit can and will triumph.

With new golf courses springing up in and around Clark Philippines and an ever-increasing patronage by tourists from neighboring South Korea, Clark Freeport is short on hotel accommodation.
Even with the addition of 27 holes in 2009 and 2010, there is an acute shortage golf tee times for at least 5-6 months each year. Local players compete with frustrated (golf) tourists from Korea and China for tee times. Unfortunately Clark Philippines doesn’t have the luxury of vast tracts of land suitable for this type of development.
Mimosa offers 36 holes of championship golf, visitors can pay and play, busy during the weekends but not that difficult to get on or join up with a group to form a 4-ball. The new FAKCC offers 27 holes of world-class golf.
