00:25In the hero's welcome in Malacanang that was disobeyed the law, the office of the President gave him 20 million pesos.
00:31More than 14 million pesos were given from the House of Representatives
00:35while 2 million pesos were promised by the local government of Manila where he grew up.

00:56God will take care of us and give us good people. Thank you very much.
01:05The bronze medalist Nesty Petesho and Ira Villegas received 4 million pesos.
01:10After the office of the President approved the bill,
01:14other non-medalists and coaching staff will also be accepted.
01:17As long as the Olympics are held, we will give 1 million pesos and the office of the President will match what you will give.
01:25So at least we will get the bronze medal.
01:27Aside from that, because of our recognition to all those who helped,
01:33the coaching staff, we will also give half a million pesos.
01:37But more than the prizes, the President wanted to give more support to the athletes.
