The Philippine Dragon Boat Team Wins GOLD in the US

Congratulations to the Philippine Dragon Boat Team for winning the Gold in the Premier 1,000m event in Tampa Bay, Florida.  They also won Gold in the previous years despite the lack of monetary support from the Government.  Their story was featured in ABS-CBN and was heart breaking.  They did not even had enough funds for their training, food and equipment.  These people are the genuine AZKALS.  Filipinos who persevere despite the odds against them.  

Once again congrats to the Philippine Dragon Boat Team!
