The
Philippine Racing Commission takes great pride in welcoming everyone the official
website of the PHILRACOM.
Philippine horse racing’s key policy and regulatory agency mandated
to promote and direct the accelerated growth and development of the local
equine industry.
This is indeed an opportune occasion to finally
link the PHILRACOM, an agency established more than 28 years ago, to the
information highway and keep it abreast with the exciting developments in
the electronic media. Considering the
many changes that have happened to the local horse racing industry over the
past years, we believe that it is only timely that such a window has
finally been opened.
Through
this new service, we intend to inform and increase the awareness
of the public on the major developments and activities affecting
the local horse racing industry, including major policy issues
and concerns that are regularly addressed by the PHILRACOM during
its weekly meetings.
Moreover,
this website is also intended to provide all interested parties, both here
and abroad, with enough information to possibly consider future
involvements in the industry either as potential investors or direct
participants.
We are
proud to note that Philippine horse racing is undoubtedly one of the most
vibrant sport-industries in the country, if not in the whole racing world,
having set record growth in terms of patronage over the past many years.
We are
hopeful that through the stewardship of the PHILRACOM that we would be able
to harness local horse racing to its full potential both as a source of
revenue for the government and livelihood for many of our countrymen.
Thank you
very much.
