Brief History about Leyte Province:

Leyte, “Waray” as we called them, is a province in the Philippines located in the Eastern Visayas region, occupying the northern three-quarters of Leyte Island.
Its capital is the city of Tacloban, administered independently from the province. To the west across the Camotes Sea is the province of Cebu.

Two chronological events that people will never forget:

• Leyte is also known as the site of the largest naval battle in modern history, the Battle of Leyte Gulf, which took place during the Second World War.

• Leyte is especially prone to typhoons because it geographically faces the Pacific Ocean. On 8 November 2013, the province was severely affected by Super Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan). The typhoon, known internationally as Haiyan, and domestically referred to as Yolanda, killed thousands of people and garnered significant international media attention. Leyte suffered similar destruction and loss of life in 1991 from Tropical Storm Thelma.    (gcl)

Christmas is here, but at what cost is Pride and Dignity?
By: Graham C. Lim
 
Happiness is when one is free from any suffering and living in peace.
 
Loneliness is when friends turn their backs against you and leave you in the pits even when you are already down and out.
 
Pride has a crazy way to behave irrationally but dignity in a principled person does not hesitate in good or bad times. Faith is undiminished and righteousness is never compromised.
 
When I sing to one of my favorite Frank Sinatra’s songs, “Let Me Try Again,” I feel consoled in that, it affords me the hope to continue my journey in life while numbing the noisiness of the outside world. It gives me the strength to preserve my dignity without compromising my life principles no matter how uncertain is the world we now live in.
 
Sinatra echoes the following words in his immortal song:
 
I know I said that I was leaving,
But I just couldn’t say good-bye.
It was only self-deceiving
To walk away from someone who
Means everything in life to you.
You learn from every lonely day
I’ve learned and I’ve come back to stay.
Let me try again; Let me try again.
 
As Secretary-General of the Basketball Association of the Philippines (BAP) in exile, some greedy officials in the basketball community continue to harass me through their subalterns, seeking to stop me by all means from returning to my land of birth after eight years of forced exile brought about my participation in the local sports scene.
 
Dirty money is overflowing. It is being offered to people out to work for my return to the Philippines by corrupt and insidious sports officials out to derail my return at all costs.
 
And it appears the devil’s hands are in motion for justice remains elusive until now.
 
Pride is not an answer to suffering. Those people who have benefited financially from my suffering and hardship are much worse than the castrated animals.
 
Personal gain from somebody’s dire situation is so inhumane. It hits one in the guts when his dignity is being trampled in the name of the almighty peso.
 
That Justice is not for sale is the universal credo. But in reality, it is not. And in my case, it is not.
 
After eight long years, there are still some unconscionable people who continue to wish me ill and sell their souls in exchange for monetary gains. So inhumane they are in their insatiable thirst for money and power.
 
The BAP was its target and its Secretary-General was its victim. Power was usurped by its organizational rival in return for material considerations and in conspiracy with the old, gullible International Basketball Federation (FIBA) Secretariat that was decimated by the loss of two key members in the past two years, Patrick Baumann and Borislav Stankovic. Bob Elphinston remains from the Three Stooges but he may be on the way out as the new FIBA hierarchy now tries to regain its tarnished image, and hopefully turn away from the remaining leftovers of the old regime.
 
That the BAP was illegally ousted from the FIBA in favor of the SBP, unilaterally setting aside the provisions in the 2007 Bangkok Agreement, was the handiwork of Baumann and company, who were wined and dined in the country before settling the issue in favor of the SBP for millions of reasons.
 
I am a person who respects institutions that have legal rules to stand on. I am supported by many respectable personalities, from friends to members of the associations, schools and universities clubs, and league-organizations from all over the country who have not been tempted by the color of the money and have steadfastly remained loyal to the BAP in the purity of its objectives.
 
“The evil that men do they sell their soul to the devil; the good that men do they keep their dignity and principles intact.”
 
For those people that continue to wish ill of me, it won’t be long before the long arms of Universal Karma catch up with you. That I can guarantee in the name of Justice.
 
To my genuine friends and loyal associates, a Merry Christmas to all of you!
 
There’s no turning back but only “One More Try” in my life narrative and God willing, there will not only be peace and happiness for me and my family, but also Justice.
 
Before the altar of Justice, I guarantee you that my dignity and principles will remain intact until I breathe my last.

New basketball association set up by all-time Japanese greats and the FIBA Secretariat curse.
By: Graham C. Lim, member of the National Press Club since 1989.
 
A newly-formed Japanese pro basketball advisory association, the Japan Basketball Improvement Conference (JBIC), has been set up by legendary Japanese Olympians.
 
The association has been established to assist the Japan Basketball Association (JBA), the national basketball federation recognized by the International Basketball Federation (FIBA), in any way and help develop young athletes improve their skill set.
 
The JBIC came into the picture after FIBA suspended JBA in 2015 in a sinister attempt by then-FIBA secretary-general, the late Patrick Baumann, and FIBA treasurer Ingo Weiss to control the Japanese basketball through its marketing policies.
 
The two even went to the extent of putting their lackeys in a sensitive position such as the president, secretary-general and the chairman to run the JBA.
 
This was the same strategy employed by Baumann and his godfather Borislav Stankovic, both of whom will now have to account for their earthly sins before the Lord Almighty, in controlling other national basketball federations around the world such as the Philippines, Lebanon, Brazil, and the Russian Republic.
 
It wants dictatorial control of the marketing programs of the independent national basketball federations to suit their devious plans of cornering all the revenues related to the sport.
 
The FIBA secretariat, led by Baumann, wanted to control the Japan Basketball Association more than a year before the July 2020 Tokyo Olympics that eventually was postponed to July of next year amid the global coronavirus pandemic.
 
It wants to get the best marketing offer from top corporations in Japan for the Tokyo Olympics not for the betterment for the sport but rather also to suit their personal needs.
 
Hilariously, Baumann and his stooges designated a lady volleyball athlete to be the JBA president while appointing a football player to run the association as its secretary-general.
 
With the demise of Baumann, Ingo Weiss took over the FIBA marketing group to stay on course with their demonic strategy in partnership with a selected few in the FIBA family.
 
Top on the marketing list of the FIBA secretariat was to secure the sponsorship of Toyota. But with the postponement of the Tokyo Olympics, any corporate agreement with the International Olympic Committee and Organizers of the Games has been held in abeyance.
 
Those plans initiated by Baumann – once a member of the International Olympic Committee – to control Japanese basketball was successful but to make sure that the JBA is run with some form of check-and-balance mechanics, legendary Japanese basketball athletes and former Olympians came forth to form the JBIC in support of the JBA and chart the future of young athletes who engage in the sport.
 
Through the JBIC, the all-time greats in Japan basketball have offered pieces of advice to the JBA regarding its now-stalled plans for the Japan Olympics, which originally were slated from July 24-August 9 this year.
 
Among them was the highly spirited Mr. Yoshida Masahiko, the former Japan national men’s head coach during the 1976 Montreal Olympics.  He occupies one of the JBIC executive positions as Vice Secretary-General.
 
Regarding the JBIC, the Japan Times newspaper, in its February 15, 2016 issue,  reported that a month before there was an informal gathering of the former Japanese basketball players and coaches from the men’s national teams that participated in the Olympics during the 1960s and 1970s.
 
Before long, in late January 2016, it officially registered as an incorporated association (JBIC) with over 30 members.
 
One of the JBIC’s biggest concerns is the JBA and Japanese basketball’s future insofar as the competitiveness and development of the sport in their home country.
 
“When it comes to international relations, Japan used to have ties with the United States, which supported Japanese basketball’s foundation,” said Yoshida, who serves as the JBIC’s Vice Secretary-General. “Japan’s status and its measures (for competitiveness) have degraded.”
 
Here’s a brief info on Coach Yoshida Masahiko.

Yoshida was connected with Tokyo’s Gyosei high school, a well-known Catholic-based and French-featured education institution.  He was a very outstanding basketball player during his prime.    So it was natural for him to move up to the Rikkyo University in Tokyo, a mission school of Anglican Church, in 1959. He continued playing for the university that was one of the collegiate basketball powerhouses in Japan. He was a household name in the collegiate basketball world because of his remarkable star-level skills.
 
As a result, he was recruited by the Nippon Kokan, one of the top four commercial teams in Japan following his university graduation.
 
On the Nippon Kokan squad, Yoshida was a key figure and a starter.
 
In 1967, he played for Team Japan in the FIBA World Basketball Championship (now known as the FIBA World Cup) in Uruguay. He later became an assistant coach for Team Japan during the 1972 Olympics in Munich.  Coach Yoshida Masahiko then was elevated to the head coaching post during the 1976 Olympics in Montreal.
 
As I continue to write about the once tradition-steeped Japanese basketball that was manipulated by the FIBA secretariat, Mafia-style, I am always reminded of what the demonic three stooges – Baumann, Stankovic, and Robert Elphinston – also did to the Basketball Association of the Philippines (BAP), destroying and then illegally recognize another fledgling but a moneyed group for millions of reasons, one of which is for FIBA to secure a major sponsorship from them and laugh all the way to the bank.
 
The corrupt practices remain in place even with the death of Baumann and Stankovic, and unless there is another group to govern the FIBA, the extent of corruption in the organization will remain a mystery.
 
It’s time to rectify the malpractices if the FIBA is to repair its tarnished image and regain credibility.
 
For the last two decades, I have been hounded relentlessly by former government officials in my country of birth in conspiracy with one of the FIBA Secretariat’s corporate partners and current self-styled basketball leaders who don’t want me to get in their way to control the sport by hook or by crook that in the process, will expose their misdeeds before the general public.
 
Maybe the injustice that I have suffered through the years has somehow been answered by the Universal Karma that took the lives of Baumann and Stankovic.
 
May the same Universal Karma will open the eyes of the current FIBA leaders before it’s too late. Otherwise, the same curse that befell the old guards may come and haunt them if they don’t shape up and mend their corrupt ways. Cleansing the organization of the scalawags is the only option remaining.
 
The curse will likely also befall on the leadership of the current national basketball federation in the Philippines if it continues with its corrupt and dictatorial practices.
 
The injustice it had done to the tradition-steeped Basketball Association of the Philippines (BAP), discarding its FIBA recognition of more than eight decades in favor of a fledgling but money group without any proper legal procedures, and in total disregard of the 2007 Bangkok Agreement,
in sinister collusion with Baumann and the old FIBA secretariat and even up to this time with the new regime.
 
If justice cannot be served here on earth then expect the long hands of the Universal Karma law to catch up with these usurpers in the days ahead.
 
As for me, I am grateful to have met the JBIC Executive Board members in November 2019. Making up the JBIC Executive Board are all-time Asian basketball great Masatomo Taniguchi (Olympians in 1972 Munich) as the JBIC Chairman; Kunihiko Nakamura (Olympian in 1965 Tokyo Games) as the JBIC Secretary-General; Masao Tachibana (former JBA Board member); Takao Imai (former JBA Board and FIBA referee); Shinji Ichikawa (former national player); Kiyohide Kuwata and Kazuko Oono (both Olympians from the 1976 Montreal Games); Hayato Kusakai (former Japan league official); JBIC Vice-Chair’s Masami Kase (former JBA Board member) and Shigeru Harada (former Japan women national head coach).
Taniguchi, however, quit as JBIC Chairman last month (March 2020) due to serious health issues.  He was replaced by  Kiyohide Kuwata, a former Olympian during the 1976 Montreal Games, effective April (this month).
Moreover, Kunihiko Nakamura and Mr. Masahiko Yoshida also resigned due to health concerns and were replaced by Shinji Ichikawa, a former Japanese national athlete.
 
The JBIC Supreme Advisors include Toshiichiroc Abe (former JBA Board member), Kuninaka Taketomi (former JBA Executive Director), and Syouji Kamata (1960 Rome Olympics player).

Zheng Chenggong Cup: Mission accomplished.
 
The Philippine National Police basketball team recently took part in the 9th Zheng Chenggong Cup international men’s basketball competitions in the bustling and booming city of Nan’an, Fujian province in the People’s Republic of China.
 
More than the results on the floor, the PNP Defenders played the role of the ambassadors of goodwill to the hilt, earning raves from their co-players from seven other teams from Taiwan, Republic of Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and the host country.
 
“The players adhered to fair play and sportsmanship throughout the five-day tournament and this is a pleasant development in international basketball,” said Thailand’s Hi-Tech team manager Piyapong Piroon.  “Win or lose, they never resorted to foul play.
 
Along the way, the PNP squad also fostered friendship and camaraderie among its peers and even to the local police force.  Many more were awed by the popularity of President Rodrigo Roa Duterte, who had just come from a state visit to Beijing together with a business delegation.
 
The local organizers were much thankful of Basketball Association of the Philippines (BAP) Secretary General Graham C. Lim, who was instrumental in bringing in club teams from Korea (Enerskin), Malaysia (all-star selection), Thailand Basketball League (TBL) champs Hi-Tech and the PNP Defenders.
 
Lim was boosted by the presence of Federation of School Sports Association of the Philippines (FESSAP) president David Ong; Asia-Pacific University Sports Union (APUSU) president and FESSAP Board chair Alvin Tai Lian; businessman-sportsman Tai Xin Ming; Megaworld Corporation & FESSAP Honorary Vice Chair’s Danilo Madlansacay; and International Basketball Federation (FIBA –Asia) Secretary General Emeritus and Asian University Basketball Federation (AUBF) Honorary President Dato’ Yeoh Choo Hock of Malaysia.
 
The PNP team leader was led by Police Senior Superintendent Gilberto Cruz with Federico “Eric” Samson as PNP Head Coach and assisted by Juven Formacil. Edmundo Ang, Team Coordinator; Maria Cecilia Sarmiento, Secretary; and players are Harold Decena, Abul Khair Bayabao, Japheth Cabahug, Ronaldo Abaya, Crislyn Elopre, Ricardo Cabrera Jr., Harold Sta. Cruz, Rodel Ongutan, Alejandro Yanguiling Jr., Antonio Tolentino Jr., and Paul Ogayon. 
 
Other teams that saw action in the 9th edition of the Zheng Chenggong Cup were Taiwan’s Fubon Braves, which featured Brooklyn Nets playmaker Jeremy Lin’s younger brother Joseph Shu-Wei Lin and American import Liam Paul McMorrow, and Kin Men Kaoliang, which was bannered by former pro-import Eugene Phelps; Singapore’s Tong Whye Physical Association, which had four Filipinos on its roster led by the Philippines’ Development League veteran and University of the East product Paul Christian Zamar, John Michael Noble Dagatan, Michael Gierald Parala Gomez and Ramsie Cinco Da Elvir; and the host Nan’an selection.   
 
In the end, the one-game finals featured a pair of unbeaten teams from Taiwan.
 
The Fubon Braves broke away from a close game with a 14-0 blast bridging the third and fourth quarters to erase a 55-50 deficit and moved ahead for good, 64-55, early in the fourth frame.
 
The tree-like McMorrow paced the 5-0 Braves with 26 points.  He was backed up by Wen Cheng Tsai’s 19 markers.  Lin contributed eight points.
 
Phelps, who suited up for Phoenix Petroleum in the recently-concluded PBA Governors’ Cup, netted 30 points in a losing cause.
 
In the battle for third place, Nan’an, which topped the 8th Zheng Chenggong Cup, whipped Korea’s Enerskin, 107-81.
 
Zamar, a son of former national team coach Boysie Zamar who last played for Cafe France in the PBA D-League, produced the tournament’s single-game individual high with 40 points in seventh-place Singapore’s 93-91 double-overtime loss to Korea’s Enerskin.  

In its front-page newspaper masthead, The Philippine Star proudly proclaims the “Truth shall prevail” slogan.
By: Graham C. Lim

Consequently, Star is expected to adhere to fair reportage where news reports and opinions of columnists may be rebutted or denied in print in the name of fairness. While “free space” is upon the discretion of the editors, the right to reply to a false accusation or inaccuracy in a newspaper must also be allowed to find print.  
 
One-sided or bias reportage has no space in a legitimate newspaper unless freedom of information is restricted only to the influential or powers-that-be.
 
For the second time in the Philippines Star, the Honorable Jarius Bondoc came out to malign me in his column for May 25, 2016 based on his alleged conversations with the honorable Jose “Peping” Cojuangco Jr., the long-serving president of the Philippine Olympic Committee.
 
The first time Bondoc came out to attack me in his column, I sent a letter to the Philippine Star editors to answer the unfounded accusations of Cojuangco and Bondoc against my person.
 
Not surprisingly, my letter failed to find print when fairness dictates the Star should do so.
 
Now comes again the rehashed accusations and imaginary charges against me in the May 25, 2016 column of the Honorable Bondoc.
 
All of the accusations hurled against me are the figment of imagination of Cojuangco and shamelessly parroted by his spin doctor, Bondoc.
 
Descriptions of how some people allegedly were illegally sent out to different basketball tournaments – such as those supposedly happening way back before 2012 – when, in fact, the Basketball Association of the Philippines had been out of the national basketball leadership (and replaced by the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas since the time) had already been in control of the national basketball leadership as early as 2008, is purely the work of a fiction writer or somebody suffering from symptoms of senility.
 
And after concocting those so-called stories, I am being accused of being a human smuggler in order to justify the aforementioned tales, I, having been the BAP secretary general, and Senator Antonio Trillanes, concurrently the BAP president whom Cojuangco and Bondoc find unadulterated joy in attacking for a political matter not related to my case, have been maligned with impunity.
 
Worse, I am saddened when I can’t fight back on a leveled field and reply to the accusations in the same forum (newspaper) that published them.
 
“Truth shall prevail” is the Philippine Star’s proud slogan.  Soon, the world will also find out the truth and, as they say, “the truth shall set us free.”
 
Change is coming.  And the truth shall be its biggest victor.
