00:07PSC Chairman Patog Gregorio reveals in a Rappler Talk interview,
00:11he is coordinating with more local government units to make this happen,
00:14following President Marcos' wishes in his fourth State of the Nation address.

00:25When we opened Phil Sports, when we opened the Rizal, we did that na isang consideration.
00:31Bigyan ng opportunity yung taong bayan, yung mga atleta sa eskwalahan,
00:36at yung mga batang walang magawa pagkatapos ng eskwalahan, makapag-exercise, makapag-jogging, tumakbo.
00:42After the public's warm reception to the opening of government track ovals,
00:46Gregorio also reveals joggers flocking to the RMC rose from a few hundreds on the first day to more than a thousand by Wednesday, August 6.
00:54Will we offer maybe more sports facilities moving forward? Yes.
00:59Pag-aralan lang po namin, lalo na ngayon siguro, kasi may SEA Games lang.
