Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) Chairman John Patrick “Pato” Gregorio officially inaugurated the Gimaca Resort & Sports Centre on Oct. 16, marking a major step forward for regional recreation and grassroots sports development in Cavite.
Several prominent officials attended the event to support the project’s goals, including Magallanes Vice Mayor Aina Sisante, Philippine Tennis Association (PTA) Secretary General and Mayor John Reynald Tiangco, OPAPRU Presidential Assistant Atty. Gefer Mancol, and BARMM Parliament Deputy Speaker Atty. Nabil A. Tan.
Designed to improve racket sports in Southern Luzon, the modern complex features five indoor tennis courts, four pickleball courts, and an in-house café offering a full range of services.
The Second Congressional Commission on Education (EDCOM 2) found gaps in the distribution of classroom allocations, with some municipalities facing the largest shortages reportedly receiving fewer classrooms.
EDCOM 2 said the issue was raised during the October 16 Senate committee on finance hearing on the Department of Education’s (DepEd) proposed 2027 budget.
The commission reportedly found that only 45.2 percent of the 332 local government units with the largest estimated classroom shortages were among the leading recipients of planned classroom allocations under DepEd’s 2026 program.
