Recently in the City of Las Piñas, the City Government celebrated the achievement of a young local swimmer who brought home two bronze medals from a prestigious competition overseas and eventually met with Mayor Imelda Aguilar at City Hall, according to the social media post of the local authorities.
To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the City Government’s social media post of February 25, 2024. Some parts in boldface…
In a proud moment for Las Piñas, local swimmer James Allen Papango, who clinched bronze medals at the prestigious Asian Open Schools Invitational Aquatics Championships 2024 held in Bangkok, paid a courtesy visit to City Mayor Imelda Aguilar on Thursday, February 22.
James Allen Papango, a resident of Las Piñas and a beacon of youthful talent in sports, showcased exceptional prowess in the pool, bringing home bronze medals in both the 100m and 50m backstroke events against a competitive field of swimmers from across Asia. His achievements at the championships have not only placed him on the international swimming map but have also served as a source of inspiration for aspiring athletes in his hometown.
During the courtesy visit, Mayor Aguilar commended Papango for his hard work, dedication, and the honor he brought to Las Piñas.
