The Philippines is sending 15 athletes in 9 different disciplines to the 2008 Beijing Olympics. The President has upped the stake with a prize of 15 Million Pesos for the first Filipino who will take home the elusive Olympic Gold. The 2008 Beijing Olympics will start this Saturday August 8, 2008 in what is dubbed as China's Coming Out Party being an emerging Economic Power in the world.
