And I’m bound to honor that commitment (to advance sports tourism),” he said at a Monday symposium with Resto PH, a group of restaurant owners in the country, at the Wolfgang Steakhouse in Gateway 2, Cubao.

Also appearing at the symposium were Resto PH’s Eric Teng, Alberto Agra of obstacle sports, Francis Diaz, the University of the Philippines Human Kinetics dean and incoming National Academy of Sports executive director, Karen Caballero of sepak takraw and Passi, Iloilo Mayor Stephen Palmares. — Joey Villar
