LEGAZPI CITY–Albay will host the Palarong Pambansa next year, after winning the bid on Wednesday at the central office of the Department of Education in Pasay City.

Albay Gov. Joey Salceda, said Albay won the bid because of its accessibility to participating teams, offering less travel time, less discomfort and less carbon emission in the province.

Strong indoor capacity from private schools and commercial malls also helped, he said. Education Sec. Armin Lusitro, along with the Palaro committee, approved the proposal of the Palaro, which would be held from April 15 to 22.
