I WRITE to publicly acknowledge and commend our national athletes for proving, thus far, that they actually have what it takes to be true-blue champions not just in their own country but also regionally.

These award-winning athletes have shown that with proper preparation, discipline and the will to exceed expectations, they can achieve remarkable success. These athletes come from many fields and their showing clearly demonstrates that given the right mix of circumstances, they can actually reach for the stars.
