PHNOM PENH—Jason Balabal grappled with Keo Sophak and endured the jeers of the hometown crowd before snaring the gold medal at the 32nd Southeast Asian Games. The veteran wrestler from Ifugao floored the Cambodian, 4-0, to rule the Greco-Roman 87kg event, more than a decade after reaching the top of the medal podium again in the sport at these Games. Balabal, best remembered as flag-bearer during the 2013 SEA Games in Myanmar in his Igorot outfit, finished third in the 97kg of the freestyle and Greco-Roman disciplines in Hanoi, Vietnam last year.

VOW | The Philippine Coast Guard says it will address concerns about its SUV purchase. (INQUIRER FILE PHOTO) MANILA, Philippines —State auditors have flagged the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) for buying a P7.8-million bulletproof sport utility vehicle (SUV) for its commandant despite a government ban on the purchase and use of luxury vehicles. In its 2022 audit report on the PCG, the Commission on Audit (COA) noted that not only did the purchase of a Toyota Land Cruiser Prado lack prior approval from the Department of Budget and Management (DBM), it was also in violation of Malacañang's Administrative Order No.

Celebrating the 25th Anniversary of Indigenous Peoples Days! 'We were here. We are here. We will always be here'  Twenty five years ago, tribal members held a candlelight vigil on Broad Street, Nevada City, to protest Columbus Day. This has since turned into a multiple day event for the last 25 years to continue to heal those historic wounds. Local native and non-native people have since gathered every October to celebrate native history and culture.  The Siakumne Tribe and its supporters invite members of the public to join us in our 25th Anniversary of Indigenous Peoples Days, to honor and celebrate all those who have passed on, who dedicated their lives to ensuring we are all still here and able to thrive in the indigenous ways.
