PSMDC Deputy Executive Director Marlon Domalanta hailed the women athletes of Pangasinan as he assured that the provincial government’s sports and development program continues despite the pandemic, citing the online chess tournament conducted by his office in December 2020 aimed at honing the skills of the youth.
He said the provincial government continues to coordinate with the Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) in order to find out what kind of sports can now be played in the province given the fact that Pangasinan is now on Alert Level 1. (Leonardo Micua)
