The actions of LVPI officials with regards to the country's participation in the VTV Cup in Vietnam show the worst in every Filipino :
1. The culture of mediocrity is being flaunted by LVPI without shame. Instead of sending the best possible team or not sending one at all, LVPI chooses to send a ragtag team that has not practiced even for a single day. Chances are, the team will end up dead last and LVPI officials are not worried a bit about the shame it will bring the country.
2. Filipino crab mentality is at its best with LVPI officials. Instead of allowing PVF to send its own team to the tournament in Vietnam, LVPI officials told the organizers not to accept the entry team of PVF at all cost. Indeed, crab mentality at its finest.. Incidentally, China has two teams entered in the tournament to underscore the possibility of a country being represented by two teams.
3. LVPI officials feel a sense of entitlement that is unwarranted and unfounded. LVPI officials requested the passport renewal of six of its players according to the office of PSC Chairman Richie Garcia. The request involves the renewal of passports in one day. Obviously, for the passports to be renewed in such an unimaginably short period of time, LVPI must use the padrino system. Every ordinary Juan dela Cruz waits for at least one week for passport renewal. Why can't LVPI officials and players go through the normal process like everyone else ? Why the sense of entitlement ?
All these, should make every Filipino shudder with the thought that these are the type of officials that the country has for volleyball.
