On August 18, Filipino Olympians Hidilyn Diaz, Nesthy Petecio, Carlo Paalam, and Eumir Marcial, received the rewards that were promised to them after they won medals at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.
The Pinoy medalists graced the turnover ceremonies for their new Tagaytay real estate properties from the Philippine Olympic Committee, and new vehicles from United Asia Automotive Group Inc.
Hidilyn, who gave the Philippines its first gold medal, has been in the news lately, as she has been attending various turnover ceremonies for the "rewards" and pledges from different donors, including her P14M condo unit in Eastwood, Quezon City
Aside from getting the keys to her 2-story home in Tagaytay City, Hidilyn also received her brand new van.
In the same event, Pinoy boxers Nesthy, Carlo, and Eumir visited the lots, where their future homes will be constructed.
Nesthy and Carlo, both silver medalists, also saw for the first time their brand new vehicles--an SUV for Nesthy and an MPV for Carlo. Eumir, who capped off his Olympic bid with a bronze medal, received a cash reward from the car donor.
Have a look at the photos that capture the emotional and joyous moments in the turnover ceremonies that were held in honor of our decorated athletes:
