00:23The First Family themselves came to Malacañang
00:26to help the Filipino athletes who succeeded in the 2024 Paris Olympics.
00:32President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. and First Lady Lisa Marcos
00:37also held hands and talked to the athletes.
00:40The last one to hold hands was the double gold medalist Carlos Yulo
00:44who also took a photo with the First Family.
00:47After this, they went straight to Malacañang for the program.
00:51Carlos Yulo was the first to speak
00:53where he thanked the helpers for their contribution.
00:58Thank you very much to the people who prayed,
01:03who made an effort to watch the Olympics
01:08and to witness the training of the Filipino athletes.
01:15I want to thank you for giving us a training camp at METS.
01:21It was a big help for me.
01:24I was able to adjust to the time.
01:28The weather was also good.
01:29It was a big thing for me.
01:33I was able to connect to this medal.
01:37Thank you very much to POC, to Ma'am Cynthia,
01:43Gymnastics Association of the Philippines.
01:47To all the athletes, I am very proud
01:52of what we fought for.
01:54We gave our best to everyone.
01:57We worked hard.
02:00The competition hasn't started yet.
02:03I am very proud of all of you.
02:05Now that the competition is over,
02:07let's celebrate the results we got
02:11and let's do better in the next competitions.
02:15Later, President Marcos also gave a message
02:18where he thanked the athletes
02:20because they made the name of the Philippines and Filipinos beautiful.
02:25It is now in the international stage.
02:28So, we can see that the Philippines is famous again.
02:34You are making the Philippines famous all over the world.
02:38I know that you are thinking about gymnastics,
02:43boxing, pole vault.
02:48You are just thinking about your event.
02:51But your performance has a big meaning.
02:56It means a lot.
02:57It has a big meaning for us who are watching you,
03:02who are shouting and supporting you.
03:05The performance of these athletes
03:07is the result of their sacrifices
03:10and their coaches, trainers, group and family.
03:14There is no winner who is not supported
03:18by the fear of many people
03:20who don't think about how to help you
03:23to be successful.
03:25This is what we are recognizing now.
03:27It is very important.
03:29And as a reward for the achievements of the athletes in the country,
03:33the President gave them cash incentives
03:36as well as their coaching staff.
03:40So, that's why...
03:42Chairman Langsing is here.
03:44He has a lot of money.
03:46We can give all of our athletes
03:48as long as they go to the Olympics.
03:50We can give them 1 million.
03:52Right?
03:59The Office of the President will match
04:01what you will give
04:03for at least 1,000.
04:07Besides that,
04:10we will also give
04:12the coaching staff
04:14half a million.
04:20More than the material things,
04:22President Marcos asked the athletes
04:24what else the government
04:26can do to help
04:28the sports industry.
04:30So, I ask all of you
04:32to tell us
04:34what is it that you need?
04:36During the training of our athletes,
04:38where did you have a hard time?
04:40What can you not do
04:42to help us?
04:44You tell us.
04:46And hopefully,
04:48if we really work together
04:50and start to prepare
04:52for not only the Olympics,
04:54of course, that's a very important one,
04:56but not only the Olympics.
04:58Meanwhile, the First Family,
05:00the athletes,
05:02and other sponsors
05:05will be giving out prizes
05:07to the athletes in the Olympics
