    Interestingly, ... ... my wife spent most of a 25-year teaching career at Panabo National High School.

    Probably what drew my attention to this thread's headline was the fact the boy champion hailed from the provinces rather than the Philippine capital. Because I've noticed how people on the other side of the world tend to mistakenly believe the entire UK is composed of London and well ... ... nowt else! Whereas, by the same token, I daresay there're many Brits who imagine the Philippines as being just Manila!
