MANILA, Philippines — The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) announced Friday that it met with the International Volleyball Federation (FIVB) for the Men’s World Championship 2025, which the Philippines will host from Sept. 12 to 28.
MMDA Chairman Don Artes and General Manager Procopio Lipana led the discussions with event organizers, focusing on the agency’s support for the smooth staging of the global tournament.
The agenda covered traffic management plans, contingency measures, activation of the Multi-Agency Coordinating Center (MACC), deployment of medical and emergency services, weather and flood monitoring, and coordination for transportation of athletes and spectators.
Artes said the MMDA would field traffic personnel in key areas to reduce congestion and ensure the security of players, foreign delegates, and visiting fans.
The agency added that coordination with local government units and national agencies would be tightened to anticipate possible challenges during the two-week tournament.
