BACOLOD City - President Estrada mandated yesterday his "co-workers in
government to extend support and inspiration to all our children athletes," put
an end to elitist sports and pursue an aggressive sports program for the

Pambansa of the third millennium in front of over seven thousand athletes and

The Palarong Pambansa, originally postponed because of lack of funds, later
because of armed conflicts in Mindanao and recently faced the prospects of
being cancelled because funds were not forthcoming, will finally be held as
scheduled May 21-22 in Bacolod City.
