PHILIPPINE Football Federation (PFF) President Mariano Araneta thanked the House of Representatives particularly Rep. Rufus Rodriguez of Cagayan de Oro and brother Rep. Maximo Rodriguez of Abante Mindanao party-list for authoring House Bill 4298, ordering the construction of a 75,000-capacity world-class football stadium in the country.
�I�m really happy with that [bill]. It is good for Philippine football. Ever since, we have no football stadium that can hold 70,000 spectators and we can now host international football events if that plan materialized,� said Araneta.
Araneta said the proposed facility must be built in the National Capital Region since it is considered a national stadium. �Right now, they haven�t approached us yet regarding the venue but I�m hoping it will be here in Metro Manila.�
