Senate President Juan Miguel “Migz” Zubiri, and Senators Christopher “Bong” Go and Francis Tolentino have visited Cambodia over the weekend to show the Senate's full support for all the Filipino athletes competing in the Southeast Asian (SEA) Games. Go, chairman of the Senate Committee on Sports, took the opportunity to encourage the athletes to give their best in the competition and to bring home medals for the Philippines. The senator reminded them that they are representing the entire nation and that their performance will inspire young Filipinos to pursue their dreams in sports. “Andito po kami ni SP Migz (at) Senator Tolentino, full force po ang Senado to support our athletes. As chair po ng Committee on Sports, full support po ako palagi sa lahat ng sports. We’re here to support our athletes,” said Go in an ambush interview on Friday, May 12. “Sana po ay humabol tayo. Kilala naman po ang Pilipino na lumalaban. Pusong Pinoy po yan. Go Philippines! Go, go, go for gold!” encouraged Go. The SEA Games is a multi-sport event that takes place every two years, with athletes from 11 Southeast Asian countries participating in various sports competitions. It opened last May 5 and will run until May 17. During their visit, the senators met with the Filipino athletes and coaches, and emphasized the importance of sports in promoting unity and understanding among nations.
