Senator Bong Go on Sunday expressed his “unwavering support” for Filipino athletes competing in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, which officially opened on Friday, and the Paralympics, which will begin on August 24.
“Ang sports po ay isang paraan para magkaisa tayo at maipagmalaki ang galing ng kapwa nating Pilipino,” the chair of the Senate committee on sports said.
“Umaasa po tayo na maging matagumpay ang ating mga atleta na sasabak sa Olympics. Higit sa lahat, sana ay maging ligtas sila lalo na laban sa anumang sakit,” he said.
Go expressed optimism that the country’s athletes will do well and, ideally, bring home the country’s first gold medal in this year’s edition of the Olympics.
“Ako, ine-expect ko na makakuha tayo ng ginto. Meron tayong ipinadalang 19 athletes sa Olympics at lima naman para sa Paralympics,” he said.
“Sana po ay manalo. We wish them good luck at ako naman po ay tiwalang kakayanin nating manalo at makakuha ng ating inaasam na gold medal para sa ating bayan. Dito lang po kami full support po kami sa ating mga atleta,” Go said.
