ROBERTO VALDEZ DIES IN THE PHILIPPINES

We have just received the tragic news that our friend, Roberto Valdez, a former Muay Thai and Kickboxing friend, who helped us during last Macau Asian Indoor Games as a referee and judge, the man who actually helped us in creating the WAKO Philippines, died in a terrible accident in Manila.

The bad news comes from Mr. Abram Tolentino who is the current president of the Philippines Kickboxing Federation affiliated to WAKO.

In the name of WAKO as a whole, our most sincere condolences to Roberto's family. May he sleep in peace.
