Sagip Bukas (Save the future) a Movement for a Drug Free Las Piñas



Addiction to prohibited drugs has destroyed numerous lives – not only of the user but also that of his or her family. The Villar SIPAG recognized early on that education is a key to preventing the spread of this threat. In 1994, a school-based anti-drug abuse campaign was launched.

Dubbed as Sagip Bukas (Save the Future), the program primarily addresses the students in the 5th and 6th grades and in high school, as well as their parents and teachers. More than just providing information on the perils of drug abuse, discussions are held on the important role of the family and community in preventing and fighting this menace. To make the program inclusive and get the out-of-school youth involved, peer interaction and support group programs are simultaneously conducted. Since its inception, Sagip Bukas has reached an audience of over 80,000.

In 1994, the City of Las Piñas earned a special award jointly given by the Office of the President and the Department of Interior and Local Government for its well-rounded approach to the drug abuse problem through the Sagip Bukas Program.

 VILLARDS: The Manny Villar Cup – Billiards Tournament is a key project of Senator Manny Villar under his “Tulong sa Pagsulong ng Philippine Sports” program, which started in May 2008, with a 6-day kick-off tournament that happened at Starmall Alabang, Muntinlupa City.

It showcases the world-class Filipino cue artists like Efren ‘Bata’ Reyes, Francisco ‘Django’ Bustamante, Alex Pagulayan, Dennis Orcollo, Ronnie Alcano, Roberto Gomez, Lee Van Corteza, Rubilen Amit, Warren Kiamco, Joven Bustamante, Ramil “Bebeng” Gallego and more compete against each other.

VILLARDS CUP, also, creates a venue to discover future cue masters with its Sipag at Tiyaga Local Amateur Category, wherein amateur players from the host province or region are given the chance to develop their talents and compete side-by-side with the masters.

Former amateur players, like Carlo Biado and Ricky Zerna, are already playing in international competitions and they are very proud to say that they have started from this cup, and surely have gone a long long way.

Since 2008, VILLARDS CUP produced 10 winners and had been to Muntinlupa City, Cebu, Bulacan, Davao, Quezon City, Baguio, Isabela, Region 4-A and Iloilo to name a few. It also had a special Media Edition and has also been to the 21st Ad Congress in Subic, Olongapo City.

Villiards: The Manny Villar Cup Billiards Tournament

More than P700,000 pesos in cash are being given away every leg. This project inspires a lot of sports fanatics in different cities of the Philippines, even non-enthusiasts of the sports, considering the fact that only the Villards Cup was able to put all these stars together in a single event! Even visiting foreigners in the country are joining this cup.

Old-time billiards champion, Amang Parica, have heard of this project and came to the Philippines during Villards Cup Batangas Leg to once again join his long-time fellow Efren Bata Reyes. They even had an exhibition game which excited the crowd and brought the house down!

This cup is also an avenue for local billiards players to perfect their craft in preparation for their other competitions in different countries.

Even our dear friends from the press also had their own version of this sports actiivity by having the Villards Kapamilya Cup (Media Edition).

To generate interest in sports and fitness, the Tropang Villar Team starting making its rounds in 2009, visiting all the barangays of Las Piñas conducting free basketball clinics. This is part of Villar SIPAG’s youth development program, using sports as a means of instilling the values of discipline, team work, and striving for excellence.

During the first run in 2009, Tropang Villar, headed by Las Piñas Congressman Mark Villar, gave out more than 5,000 basketballs and jersey shirts to the participants and held exhibition games featuring stars from the Philippine Baskeball League (PBL) such as Egay Billones and Ron Zagala.

The summer months of April and May in 2011 will see another rolling out of the Tropang Villar basketball tournaments in Las Piñas.
