Chengdu 2021 FISU World University Games Invites Helbert Remoroza Climaco to Share How This Event Turned His Archery Dream into Reality

“14 years ago, I dreamed of becoming an archery player – a boy with a deep passion but with few resources to start with. Looking back, when I was 4 years old, I can still remember vividly that I used to make a bow out of a broom stick and a nylon rubber band as a string. Little did I know that becoming an archery player is way from what I was thinking. It’s not an overnight success or as easy as 1, 2, 3,” he said.
Just a little bit of knowledge about how poor his life was, he experienced harvesting rice at the early age of 12. He also helped prepare the farm for planting rice and corn and carried sacks of rice from the middle of the rice field to a nearby road under the sun’s heat.
He was in grade 7 in high school when he saw that there was an archery sport offered in school. In grade 8, he started joining this sport at the school where he was enrolled. Since his parents couldn’t afford to buy equipment for him, he used to borrow from school. The bow that he used for years, from grade 8 to grade 10, was a wooden bow. Then in 11 grade, someone from another school allowed him to borrow a bow, which was better than the one he had used before. That bow was a big help for him to compete in Palarong Bicol or the Regional Meet as they called it. Regional Athletic Meet is the only highest level he achieved for two consecutive years in high school, from grade 10 to grade 11 (2016-2017).
Then, he stopped shooting archery, and the 2017 Palarong Bicol was the last time that he shot. From 2017 to 2020, he trained archers for his former and other high schools for free. After the pandemic in February 2021, he joined a virtual 18-metre archery tournament organised by World Archery Philippines (WAP), a dry-run for the upcoming Indoor Archery World Series Online organised by World Archery (WA). One week later, he registered for that event and was the only archer from the Bicol Region to participate in this World Ranking Event. He also competed in the 3rd Japan Remote Archery Festival, organised by the All Japan Archery Federation (AJAF), one day apart from the World Archery Event.
After those competitions, he encouraged other archers in nearby provinces and cities in the Bicol Region to return to archery, who had stopped shooting because of the pandemic. “I realised that I had never been to the Palarong Pambansa (National Games), but I now had the opportunity to represent the Philippines in international competitions due to the virtual format. The pandemic brought us negative effects, but, it also gave me an opportunity in archery that I had never achieved before,” he added.
When he heard about the Chengdu 2021 FISU World University Games, he felt nervous and excited because it came to his mind as he had previously only watched it on YouTube and the World Archery Facebook Page; now, he has the chance to participate. However, it was too slim a chance for him to compete at the FISU Games because it required a significant amount.
“I’m so blessed because the Official Website and Social Media Team of the Chengdu 2021 FISU Games assisted me in finding a sponsor for my participation. I am genuinely grateful to the anonymous person who made my dreams come true. My family is overjoyed by this. Then, I travelled alone to Chengdu and competed at the FISU Games without a coach or teammates,” he said gratefully, “I want to express my gratitude to the Official Website and Social Media Team of the Chengdu 2021 FISU Games because they picked me in the airport. While on the bus from the airport to FISU Games Village, I didn’t notice my eyes tearing up. Until then, I couldn’t believe I was in Chengdu and the dream I had been praying for was now a reality.”

On the field, although he was the only archer from the Philippines, he never felt alone because Team Switzerland and Team Australia helped him a lot. The coaches of both delegations guided him during his first match, where he won against a higher-ranked Slovakian archer. “The Chengdu 2021 FISU Games is very memorable – I had the chance to meet other top-ranked archers from around the world, including one of my South Korean idols who also won an individual title, and I made new friends,” he noted.
“I’m incredibly blessed and happy. Thank you to the anonymous person who sponsored my participation. To the Chengdu 2021 Official Website and Social Media Team – Thank you so much for everything you’ve done for me from the very start! Thank you to all the people who helped me. Lastly, to my family for the unending support and love that you gave to me.”

In the future, He plans to be a teacher rather than a seafarer to pursue my dreams in archery. He was setting his sights on the Rhine-Rhur 2025 FISU World University Games if he could participate. Also, he is planning to continue to train archers for free, to inspire them and to motivate them to keep going, no matter what happens.”I firmly believe that as I reflect on my journey in archery, the Chengdu 2021 FISU World University Games will forever stand as one of the most significant and cherished moments of my career.”

Build Strategy for Banking Platforms Resulted in 70% of Failed Digital Transformation for Banks in APAC
IDC InfoBrief, commissioned by Backbase, discusses adopt and build as the best practice to grow ROE for digital initiatives
SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 31 August 2023 – Backbase, the global pioneer of Engagement Banking, today announced the release of the APAC-focused IDC InfoBrief, “Accelerating Customer-Centric Transformation by Balancing Build and Buy – A Collaborative Approach Towards Sustainable Digital Banking Architecture.” This in-depth report draws insights from 125 banks and 316 CIOs in APAC, offering a regional perspective on digital transformation. The IDC InfoBrief challenges the long-standing default approach of building in-house solutions for digital engagement banking platforms, and finds that 65% of mid to large sized banks in APAC have opted to build their engagement banking platforms in-house to achieve digital transformation, however, 70% of these projects have failed due to costly and lengthy in-house efforts.
From the IDC InfoBrief, a staggering 80% of digital engagement platforms built in-house with budgets over USD10M face underperformance and have not yielded the desired ROE in their digital initiatives.
“Building in-house has been a de-facto strategy by banks, but it’s no longer feasible to deliver to the pace and scale that is required to be competitive. The complexities that come with the extensive amount of data layers, channels, features, upstream and downstream integration that needs to support legacy and modern systems to manage and orchestrate sophisticatedly is where in-house implementation breaks apart,” said Ashish Kakar, Research Director, Financial Insights, IDC Asia/Pacific.
The Shortfalls in Digital Experiences
Despite having embarked on digital transformation since the 2000s, many banks in APAC remain at an early stage, failing to fully capitalize on its benefits and deliver compelling digital customer engagements.
The IDC InfoBrief highlights a crucial disconnect between banks and their customers, where most banking products and offerings are deemed “me-too” and limited. Customers face challenges accessing multiple services through disparate interfaces, lack a unified view of their portfolios, and endure lengthy onboarding processes. The demand for instantaneous approvals and streamlined digital processes remains unmet, while personalized experiences, segmentation, and relevant promotions based on customers’ lifestyles, life moments, and goals continue to elude them. Additionally, backend operations suffer due to the lack of intelligent assistance in contact centers, leaving customers repeating information to different service officers due to the absence of a 360 degree unified customer view. This is a result of banks focusing on locking in a high amount of resources getting banking platforms into shape instead of prioritizing the creation of differentiated upstream customer journeys and experience.
“Over 150 modern and forward-looking banks have adopted and built on top of Backbase’s Engagement Banking Platform to accelerate their go-to-market visions and prioritize innovative, differentiated digital customer engagement and experiences. In APAC, you see large to mid-sized banks like Techcombank, BDO, HDFC, ABBANK, OCB, and more already on the Engagement Banking Platform bandwagon”, said Riddhi Dutta, Regional Vice President, Asia of Backbase.
“ A true platform comes with all the hygiene requirements from market fit, to security and regulatory compliance, to being versatile and customizable to support each bank’s unique customer needs. The platform is a composable fabric providing modularity and re-usable data and journeys for banks to help banks futureproof at scale,” Dutta further explained.
A Shift in Mindset: Embracing “Adopt and Build” for Accelerated Growth
The analysis in the IDC InfoBrief finds the “Adopt and Build” approach a pragmatic solution for banks to accelerate their go-to-market efforts, differentiating where it matters instead of reinventing the wheel by building from scratch. By adopting a collaborative platform and building upon it, banks can achieve 40% faster time-to-market, where digital engagement banking platforms can be launched within 11 months, as compared to the traditional 20 months with a full “build” approach. In addition, “Adopt and Build” had proven to be 2.3 times more cost-effective than the traditional in-house “build” option.
Across six key metrics—market fit and differentiation, legacy risk, build risk, time to market, modernize talent & IT skill set, and regulatory compliance, the “Adopt and Build” approach was rated highest and had shown tangible advantages in comparison to the “Build” and “Buy” approaches.
This IDC InfoBrief is the first of two consultative guides commissioned by Backbase to provide pragmatic guidance for banks to evaluate a more effective platform strategy that can drive accelerated and differentiated digital customer engagement.
