GAWA ‘DI NGAWA

pick n roll

MAY pangako na hindi natupad. May haligi na nauupos at nangangailagan ng suhay upang harapin ang panibagong unos ng buhay.

Kapwa nakapag-uwi ng Olympic medal sina Leopoldo Serantes (bronze sa 1988 Seoul) at Mansueto ‘Onyok’ Velasco (1996 Barcelona). Sa dalawa, higit na buwenas ang mga kamao ng pambato ng Bago City sa Negros. Mula sa gobyerno at pribadong sektor, kanya-kanyang sabit ang mga politiko at negosyante para maglaan ng ayuda kapalit ng media mileage kasama ang photo op, siyempre. Ginawa pa ngang artista si Onyok. Pasok talaga sa komedya ang mga kalbo (pasintabi po).

Sa isang iglap, nawala sa telebisyon si Onyok. Wala na ang halakhak na pampalipas ng oras. Halos nalimutan na ng sambayanan ang noo’y tila six-footer sa katanyagan na pint-sized boxer. Wala na ring ideya kung nasaan si Serantes.

Nitong Tokyo Olympics kung saan naitala ng bansa ang pinakaproduktibong kampanya matapos makamit ni Hidilyn Diaz ang kauna-unahang gintong medalya sa weightlifting, habang humirit ng silver medal ang boxers na sina Nesthy Petecio at Carlo Paalam at nadagdagan ng bronze ng isa pang fighter na si Eumir Marcial – pumaimbulog muli ang pangalan nina Onyok at Serantes.

Hindi para ipagbunyi at kilalanin, kundi para gawing halimbawa at ikumpara ang insenstibong nakamit sa mga bagong bayani ng sports. Nguni ang masakit, ang rebelasyon na hindi natanggap ni Onyok ang mga pangakong premyo.

Nasa batas na matapos maipasa sa Kongreso ang Athletes Incentives Act kung saan may P10 milyon ang gold medalist sa Olympics. Walang kawala ito kay Diaz, subalit mas malupit ang naging ayuda na tig-P10 milyon nina Manny V. Pangilinan ng SMART at Ramon S. Ang ng San Miguel.. Grabe… siksik…liglig at umaapaw ang tapayan ng suwerte ni Hidilyn. Puwede na siyang mag-asawa, ika nga, at magretiro.

Hinagpis naman sa pamilya ni Onyok na magpahanggang ngayon ay hindi nakuha ang pangakong P2.5 milyon insentibo ng Kongreso. Wala ring nag-ing iskolar sa kanyang dalawang anak na naipangako ng Philippine Navy, gayundin ang pension na buwanang P10,000. Natirhan ni Onyok ang bahay na kaloob ng Violago, subalit wala pa ring titulo, mahigit dalawang dekada na ang nakalilipas.

May habol pa ba si Onyok? Wala. Laway lang ang puhunan ng mga taong nakisawsaw sa kasikatan noon ng boksingero. Bilang isang bayaning atleta na nagbigay ng dangal sa bayan, karapat-dapat lamang na maibigay ang mga insentibo ni Onyok at ng iba pang atletang Pinoy.

Sa bisa ng batas, hindi na marahil mauulit ang trahedya ni Onyok.

Masuwerte kung makonsensiya ang mga pribadong indibidwal na bumili ng photo op, ngunit, tinakbuhan ang obligasyon.

Sa isang kisap-mata, at kahit wala na ang ningning ng kasikatan ni Onyok, tumapik ang Chooks-to-Go Pilipinas at sa pangunguna ng may-ari nitong si Ronald Mascarinas ay nagbigay ng prangkisa ng Chooks Store bilang pagkilala sa kabayanihan ni Onyok, May bonus pang P100,000.

At naidamay ni Onyok sa buwenas si Serantes na kasalukuyang nakaratay sa Veterans Hospital. Hindi na mamomroblema ang pamilya niya ng panustos dahil naglaan din si Mr, Mascarinas ng P100,000 kada buwan para sa boxing hero.

Tunay na sa pagtulong, mas mainam ang pagtugon kaysa matamis na pangako..
