Rebisco Ignites Volleyball Dreams In Thailand & Beyond

Biscuit and snack food giant Rebisco is all-out for Philippine volleyball.

The main supporter of the Philippine Men’s and Women’s National Teams’ stint at the Asian Club Championship hosted by Thailand sees the international volleyball club competition as a great opportunity for our local athletes to get the all-important foreign exposure that will hone their game.

Noric Ng, Business Unit Head of Rebisco, said everyone at Rebisco is happy that volleyball is alive despite the global situation and that the country’s veterans and next generation athletes are able to play their game at a high level of competition.

“Rebisco is truly committed to pursue its passion for volleyball by supporting the game at all levels, from grassroots development, to competitive sports in the amateur and professional levels, and at the national level through this partnership with the PNVF,” Mr. Ng said.

Rebisco started supporting the national volleyball teams since 2017 but the three year partnership signed with the PNVF for the National Teams, enables the Philippine National Volleyball Federation (PNVF) to run a long-term, consistent national team program by providing regular funding and participation in competitions such as this.

Rebisco’s sights are set on a podium finish in the 31st Southeast Asian Games in Vietnam in 2022.

“Our dream is to help the PNVF grow the sport and make this game an expression of the Filipino soul, locally and internationally. Our long-term goal is to make the Philippines a recognized international power in volleyball,” Mr. Ng said.

Where to Stay in Siem Reap in Cambodia?

I visited Siem Reap, Cambodia for the first time last time for my birthday. I traveled from Manila with connecting flights from Changi, Singapore to Bangkok, Thailand. From BKK I took a long bus ride to Siem Reap. I spent almost 3 days in Siem Reap, specifically in Tresor d’Angkor Suite located at Krous Village, Sangkat Svay Dangkum Siem Reap, Siemreab-Otdar Meanchey. Then took another night bus to Phnom Penh then had a quick visit at Ho Chi Minh before heading back to the Philippines.

Where to Stay in Siem Reap in Cambodia? There’s a lot of cheap hostels but if you want to splurge in a hotel room there’s a lot of 5-star hotel that’s near the Angkor Wat Archaeological Park. Read a lot of reviews first before choosing one 😉
