COTABATO CITY, Philippines – For the third time, the 20-month-old administration of Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) Acting Governor Ansaruddin Alonto-Adiong will provide free live telecast of Sunday’s fight between Filipino boxing legend Manny Pacquiao and Mexican challenger Juan Manuel Marquez as an opening highlight of the weeklong celebration of the 22nd ARMM foundation anniversary.
COTABATO CITY, Philippines – Suspending momentarily their respective endeavors, Filipinos watched anew Sunday the live telecast of their legendary hero Manny Pacquiao fighting Mexican challenger Juan Manuel Marquez in an event to once again put the nation in complete peace.


More spectators are expected to swarm the venue at the refurbished Shariff Kabunsuan Cultural Center (SKCC) inside the ARMM compound here. Free snacks await viewers, Regional Executive Secretary Naguib Sinarimbo said.
Over here, all streets virtually turned empty as commuters and vehicle drivers either stayed at home to watch in their television sets the spectacular event, but majority of them trooped to two venues where the live fight was shown show free: the city plaza and the Shariff Kabunsuan Cultural Center (SKCC) of the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM).


“This (live telecast of Pacquiao’s fight) would be the third time the Adiong administration will host for our residents of ARMM and nearby areas in 20 months. This time, the free show and snacks would more meaningful because it kicks off our 22nd anniversary celebration from November 14 to 19,” Sinarimbo said.
Hundreds went to the city government-sponsored free show at the city plaza, while more than 5,000 swarmed inside and outside the huge SKCC theatrical edifice where Acting ARMM Gov. Ansaruddin Adiong also provided free snacks for the viewers.


The fully air-conditioned SKCC building has a sitting capacity of 870, but over 2,000 spectators swarmed the edifice in the last two ARMM-sponsored free live shows of Pacquiao fights. Giant TV units were installed at the covered lobby of the building to accommodate hundreds more viewers of Sunday’s event, organizers said.
ARMM Executive Secretary Naguib Sinarimbo, whom Adiong tasked to lead for the third time the “libreng palabas” with free snacks for Pacquiao’s fight, expressed elation over the massive influx of viewers in a “very peaceful and smooth” convergence.


Before the free live showing of the Pacquiao-Marquez match and its undercard fights, viewers would be shown a video documentation of the highlights of the trailblazing accomplishments of the Adiong administration in 20 months, they said.
“Everybody in ARMM including Acting Regional Governor Adiong is equally amused with the big turnout and smooth proceedings in our third sponsorship of free live telecast for our national boxing hero, Manny Pacquiao,” Sinarimbo told reporters, who covered and watched the event.


On Monday, officials and workers of the entire regional bureaucracy will hold a colorful parade around the 22-hectare ARMM complex here to formally open the region’s 22nd founding anniversary celebration.
The sponsored live telecast with free snacks kicked off the weeklong celebration of the ARMM’s 22nd founding anniversary, which would formally commence with a parade Monday morning at the 22-hectare regional government compound.


Various festive activities have been lined up for the weeklong celebration, including a jobs fair, free medical, dental and optical check-ups and medicines, sport games, cultural presentations, and a musical program organized by local journalists, among others, Sinarimbo said.
The fully air-conditioned SKCC building has a sitting capacity of 870 and was installed with a giant screen for overhead projector, but over 2,500 spectators barged in while more than 3,000 others stayed at the lobby of the edifice where a smaller screen was also installed.


“The 22nd ARMM foundation celebration is more significant this time because it provides us the appropriate avenue to feast over the unprecedented achievements of the Adiong leadership and pay tribute to all individuals and groups that helped us make the difference,” he said.
ARMM security contingents put up a single gate for the event to prevent the entry of bladed weapons, firearms or other harmful objects at the SKCC complex, following a reported blast at the city plaza, venue of the city government-sponsored free telecast, Saturday night.


The successes of the Adiong administration in bringing normalcy back in ARMM and Maguindanao after the infamous Nov. 23, 2009 massacre of 57 people including 32 journalists, and in winning back the trust of the regional populace and the foreign donors’ community are “worth giving the best celebration,” Sinarimbo said.

The Social Weather Station (SWS) released on Oct. 10 the results of a survey commissioned by the Department of Interior and Local Governments alongside the Asian Foundation and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), showing that 63 percent of the ARMM constituents were “satisfied” with the incumbents’ performance, with only 18 percent “dissatisfied.”
 
The survey result gave credence to earlier expressed “satisfactory” ratings of the operations of the Adiong administration by several foreign donor-institutions including the USAID, the Japan International Cooperation Agency, the Australian government, and agencies of the European Union and the United Nations.
 
Meanwhile, thousands of boxing fans and avid followers of Pacquiao in Davao City will be treated anew with a “ringside view” Sunday when the ring sensation faces off for the third time with his Mexican nemesis at the MGM Grand Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. (With a report from PNA)

Kaya Iloilo sweeps Group B in Copa '21

MANILA – Kaya Iloilo pipped Mendiola with a 6-0 beating on Wednesday night to complete a sweep of Group B action in the Copa Paulino Alcantara at the PFF National Training Centre in Carmona.

A Jovin Bedic brace in the first half set the tone for the inaugural tournament champ even as the club netted three goals in each of the two halves to seal the top seed in its group ahead of the semifinals next week.

Bedic capitalized on an erroneous Mendiola attempt to keep the ball out of his reach and quickly raced inside the penalty box to open the scoring for Kaya Iloilo in the 11th minute.
