The Philippine aquatics community can now enjoy peace and harmony as the legality issues raised against the Philippine Aquatics, Inc. (PAI) headed by President Michael ‘Miko’ Vargas and Secretary-General Eric Buhain have been resolved through recognition from the World Aquatics (WA) and the Philippine Olympic Committee (POC).
According to Buhain, who also serves as Congressman for the 1st District of Batangas, the process of achieving full compliance was very tedious, starting from the time the previous administration was suspended, to the consequential decision of the International Swimming Federation and the POC.
In a memorandum sent to Vargas, dated Oct. 18, the World Aquatics Bureau confirmed the formal recognition of Philippine Aquatics, Inc. as a member of the World Aquatics. The WA recognition of PAI was the vital piece of document used by the POC General Assembly during its meeting last Oct. 27, in formally accepting the group of Vargas as the official swimming body in the country, replacing the suspended PSI.
