KASADO na ang paggagawad ng House of Representatives ng ‘Congressional Medal of Distinction’ sa mga miyembro ng Philippine boxing team na nagwagi ng medalya sa katatapos na Tokyo 2020 Olympics.
Nauna rito, inihain nina Speaker Lord Allan Velasco, Majority Leader Ferdinand Martin Romualdez at Minority Leader Joseph Stephen Paduano ang House Resolution (HR) No. 2093 na nagpapaabot ng pagbati, pagpupuri at pagbibigay ng nabanggit na parangal kay Davao del Surnative boxer Nesthy Petecio, bilang kauna-unang Pinay na nanalo ng silver medal sa boxing event sa quadrennial meet.
Mayroong ding kahalintulad na resolusyon na inihain ang naturang House leaders para kina Bukidnon-born fighter Carlo Paalam, na nanalo rin ng silver medal, at Zamboanga slugger Eumir Marcial, na nakasungkit naman ng bronze medal.
“Winning a medal at the Olympics was no easy feat as our boxers had to compete against the best athletes in the world. Nesthy, Carlo and Eumir are considered as our national heroes in sports,” pahayag ni Speaker Velasco.
“The Congressional Medal of Distinction is given to Filipino achievers in sports, business, medicine, science, and other fields. It was the same award given by Congress to weightlifter Hidilyn Diaz five years ago when she won a silver medal in the 2016 Rio Olympics,” paliwanag ng Marinduque lawmaker.
Samantala, matapos ang makasaysayang Olympic gold medal finish ni Diaz, nilikha ng Kamara ang Congressional Medal of Excellence, na para lamang sa mga Pinoy athlete na makapagbibigay ng karangalang ginto mula sa Olimpiyada, base na rin sa hiwalay na resoluysong iniakda nina Velasco, Romualdez at Paduano.
Noong Agosto 3, ang isa pang resolusyon ng tatlong House leaders at dalawang iba pang kongresista ay inaprubahan sa plenaryo na naghihirang kay Diaz bilang kauna-unahang tatanggap ng naturang award.
“Congressional Medal of Excellence was created to give honor and commendation to exceptional modern-day national heroes in sports who win the gold medal in the Olympics,” ani Velasco.
“The award will immortalize the achievements of Olympic gold medalists and give them a legacy to leave behind by providing future generations with inspirational lessons that they can take to heart,” dagdag pa ng House Speaker. ROMER R. BUTUYAN
