GENERAL SANTOS CITY (PNA) -\u2013 The provincial government of South Cotabato has allocated an initial P33 million for the initial repair and rehabilitation works for the provincial sports complex in Koronadal City.<\/p>\n

South Cotabato Governor Daisy Avance-Fuentes said such move is part of the local government\u2019s initiatives in support of Koronadal City\u2019s bid to host the 2015 edition of the Palarong Pambansa.<\/p>\n

She said the funds will be utilized for the replacement of the sports complex\u2019s track oval and the repair of several facilities.<\/p>\n

Fuentes, who joined the Region 12 or the Soccsksargen Regional Athletic Association (SRAA) delegation during the opening of the 2014 Palaro earlier this week in Sta. Cruz, Laguna, said the provincial government will utilize its available resources to complete the rehabilitation of the provincial sports complex if Koronadal City wins the bid to host next year\u2019s games.<\/p>\n

The governor said Koronadal City\u2019s aggressive bid to host anew the Palaro is also supported by South Cotabato (2nd district) Rep. Ferdinand Hernandez.<\/p>\n

“We are just a small province but we will do our best to support Koronadal City when necessary,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is so much to be done, and more funds needed. But if Koronadal City wins the bid, we will support it,\u201d Fuentes added.<\/p>\n

For his part, Hernandez said he would sit down with Koronadal City officials to discuss the joint pooling of resources for the initiative.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need to put all their resources together to ensure good results. We have to ensure that the stay of the delegates in our area can create lasting and memorable impressions,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The region comprises the provinces of South Cotabato, Sultan Kudarat, Sarangani, North Cotabato and the cities of General Santos, Koronadal, Tacurong, Kidapawan and Cotabato.<\/p>\n
