#PHnews: Tolentino, Hontiveros reelected in POC polls
MANILA – Bambol Tolentino and Steve Hontiveros will remain as the top guys of the Philippine Olympic Committee (POC) after they were reelected in the general elections held at the East Ocean Palace Restaurant in Parañaque City on Friday.
Tolentino got a fresh term as POC president after beating Clint Aranas, 30-22.
Meanwhile, Hontiveros, who ran under Aranas' team, stays as chairman after winning over Tom Carrasco in a hotly contested vote, 28-25.
However, Julian Camacho's reelection bid as treasurer was stalled after Cynthia Carrion-Norton won, 27-22, in a balloting that saw four people abstaining from voting for treasurer.
Tolentino's allies won the other top posts.
Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas chief Al Panlilio was named first vice president, beating Philippine Amateur Track and Field Association's Philip Juico, 30-23.
Ormoc Mayor Richard Gomez, representing fencing and pentathlon, will be second vice president, edging rugby's Ada Milby, 31-22.
PBA legend Chito Loyzaga, representing baseball, won over Monico Puentevella as auditor, 27-24.
On the other hand, Tolentino's ticket got three of the four spots on the POC executive board.
Renowned sports surgeon George Canlas, representing surfing, was the top vote-getter in all of the election, taking the first board member seat with 36.
Muay Thai's Pearl Managuelod placed second with 31, while judo's David Carter claimed a spot as well with 27.
Only Charlie Ho won as board member among Aranas' team members, placing third with 28 votes.
In total, 53 people representing the national sports associations and various sports sectors cast their votes.
The Philippine Table Tennis Federation failed to send a representative to the polls.
All the elected officials will serve four-year terms that will last until just after the 2024 Paris Olympics. (PNA)

“Our cultural institutions are facing a moment of trial. Powerful protests for racial and social justice are leading to overdue demands for police reform, along with wider calls for greater equality and inclusion across our society, not least in higher education, journalism, philanthropy, and the arts. But this needed reckoning has also intensified a new set of moral attitudes and political commitments that tend to weaken our norms of open debate and toleration of differences in favor of ideological conformity. As we applaud the first development, we also raise our voices against the second. The forces of illiberalism are gaining strength throughout the world and have a powerful ally in Donald Trump, who represents a real threat to democracy. But resistance must not be allowed to harden into its own brand of dogma or coercion—which right-wing demagogues are already exploiting. The democratic inclusion we want can be achieved only if we speak out against the intolerant climate that has set in on all sides.
The free exchange of information and ideas, the lifeblood of a liberal society, is daily becoming more constricted. While we have come to expect this on the radical right, censoriousness is also spreading more widely in our culture: an intolerance of opposing views, a vogue for public shaming and ostracism, and the tendency to dissolve complex policy issues in a blinding moral certainty. We uphold the value of robust and even caustic counter-speech from all quarters. But it is now all too common to hear calls for swift and severe retribution in response to perceived transgressions of speech and thought. More troubling still, institutional leaders, in a spirit of panicked damage control, are delivering hasty and disproportionate punishments instead of considered reforms. Editors are fired for running controversial pieces; books are withdrawn for alleged inauthenticity; journalists are barred from writing on certain topics; professors are investigated for quoting works of literature in class; a researcher is fired for circulating a peer-reviewed academic study; and the heads of organizations are ousted for what are sometimes just clumsy mistakes. Whatever the arguments around each particular incident, the result has been to steadily narrow the boundaries of what can be said without the threat of reprisal. We are already paying the price in greater risk aversion among writers, artists, and journalists who fear for their livelihoods if they depart from the consensus, or even lack sufficient zeal in agreement.
This stifling atmosphere will ultimately harm the most vital causes of our time. The restriction of debate, whether by a repressive government or an intolerant society, invariably hurts those who lack power and makes everyone less capable of democratic participation. The way to defeat bad ideas is by exposure, argument, and persuasion, not by trying to silence or wish them away. We refuse any false choice between justice and freedom, which cannot exist without each other. As writers we need a culture that leaves us room for experimentation, risk taking, and even mistakes. We need to preserve the possibility of good-faith disagreement without dire professional consequences. If we won’t defend the very thing on which our work depends, we shouldn’t expect the public or the state to defend it for us.”

#PHnews: Tolentino seeks unity of NSAs ahead of POC polls
MANILA – Philippine Olympic Committee (POC) president Abraham “Bambol” Tolentino is hoping that all the national sports associations (NSAs) will once again be one amid all the recent happenings especially the drama surrounding the Philippine SEA Games Organizing Committee (Phisgoc).
"My first move is to reach out to the NSAs and unite sports and forget the politics. If we can’t unite now, the momentum of our SEA Games success will be wasted," the POC chief said during the online Philippine Sportswriters Association Forum on Tuesday.
The Philippine team hosted last year’s Southeast Asia Games and won the overall championship.
Tolentino hopes that the momentum will continue next year once the Tokyo Olympics and Hanoi SEA Games start.
"The momentum is still there and there is Tokyo. We should focus on that," he said.
The allegations of Tolentino, Tom Carrasco, Cynthia Carrion-Norton, and Dave Carter receiving compensations from Phisgoc after the SEA Games led to the group of Clint Aranas filing an appeal to disqualify them from the POC election.
However, the POC Election Committee on Sunday denied the disqualification plea and cleared Tolentino and his allies to run.
"Tapos na ang 'first half' (The first half is over)," Tolentino uttered a sigh of relief as he likened his reelection bid into an "old school college basketball game," in which the match is just divided to two periods.
The "second half", that is, the election itself, is set for Friday (November 27) at the East Ocean Palace Restaurant in Paranaque City. (PNA)
