Kia ora, I have been a part of basketball here for the past 15 years — first following my husband in the senior men's division and then our children aged 10-19 throughout school/local club and representative basketball. You could say we are 100 percent a basketball family. Mentioning family, like hockey in Gisborne, basketball is made up of a smaller community that is very tight and working hard to keep the sport strong and thriving here. We have relied on key people like Dwayne Tamatea to continually push and volunteer heavy hours to the sport.

The proposed national budget for 2024 is P5.767 trillion, which is roughly P500 billion more than this year's P5.268-trillion budget. According to Deputy Speaker Ralph Recto, next year's budget would translate to an average of P15.8-billion daily spending to finance the national government's operations. Of that amount, only P11.7 billion would be sourced from projected revenue collections and the rest would have to be covered by loans. Based on past experience, those borrowings could be by way of treasury bills, bonds and other forms of government indebtedness.
