Retired government employee and longtime swimming supporter Michael Vargas would have chosen to stay in the background, away from the limelight, quietly supporting th e swimming activities of former Olympian and Batangas Rep. Eric Buhain and his group.
But this time, the 43-year-old Vargas took a new direction and accepted the lead role of Philippine Swimming, Inc. president.
Buhain, who was tipped to be the next PSI chief, decided to take another path, though, as secretary general during the World Aquatics-ordered polls at the East Ocean Palace Restaurant in Paranaque City. “He asked to be in that role. He wants to be in the heart of swimming para hagip niya kayong lahat,” added Vargas.
POC president Abraham Tolentino swore Vargas, the new officials and the board of trustees into office.Asian Swimming Federation official May Chen of Malaysia witnessed the proceeding, with the electoral committee, headed by POC secretary general Atty. Edwin Gastanes, Atty. Wharton Chan, and with Atty. Avelino Sumagui and Atty. Marcus Antonius Andaya as the other members.
