MARCIAL PAPALITAN SI OBIENA BILANG FLAG BEARER

Eumir Felix Marcial

SI boxer Eumir Felix Marcial ang magiging kapalit ni Ernest John ‘EJ’ Obiena bilang flagbearer ng Filipinas, kasama si judoka Kiyomi Watanabe sa opening ceremony ng Tokyo Olympics sa July 23 sa National Stadium.

Sinabi ni Philippine Olympic Committee (POC) President Rep. Abraham ‘Bambol’ Tolentino na mas magiging kumbinyente kung si Marcial ang magdadala ng bandila ng bansa dahil darating siya sa Tokyo ngayong  weekend.

“He [Marcial] has the most flexible schedule before and after the opening ceremony,” ani Tolentino. “We have already informed Eumir about his task and we are very thankful to EJ for under-standing. He cannot rebook his flight anymore.”

Si Marcial ay kumuha ng multiple flights mula sa kanyang training camp sa Colorado Springs sa US noong Huwebes at inaasahang darating sa Tokyo sa Sabado, anim na araw bago ang opening ceremony.

Si Obiena ay manggagaling naman sa Italy at darating sa Japan, ilang oras lamang bago ang opening ceremony.

“Because of protocols, EJ should be expecting delays at the airport and that would make it impossible for him to catch the opening ceremony,” ani Tolentino.

Si Marcial ay sasalang sa kanyang Olympic debut sa July 25 sa men’s middleweight round-of-32, habang si Watanabe ay sasabak sa women’s -63 kgs ng judo sa July 27.

Anim na Filipino officials ang lalahok sa parada ng mga bansa — chef de mission Mariano ‘Nonong’ Araneta, Philippine Judo Federation President Dave Carter, boxing coach Nolito Velasco, skateboarding coach Daniel Velasco, Philippine Swimming Inc. president Lani Velasco at Gymnastics Association of the Philippines head Carrion-Norton.

  1. Another thing I have really noticed is the fact for many people, bad credit is the results of circumstances above their control. As an example they may have already been saddled having an illness and because of this they have high bills for collections. It would be due to a job loss or the inability to work. Sometimes divorce process can send the financial circumstances in the undesired direction. Thank you for sharing your thinking on this weblog.

  2. Many thanks for this article. I might also like to talk about the fact that it can possibly be hard when you’re in school and starting out to create a long credit history. There are many scholars who are simply trying to pull through and have a protracted or positive credit history can sometimes be a difficult issue to have.
