PLAY YOUR TOUGH IN THE WORLD CUP, YAMAHA REVS WITH GILAS PILIPINAS

Yamaha Motor Philippines has always supported the different lifestyles of Filipinos since it was established in 2007. When it was announced that the Philippines
would be one of the host countries and main tourney location for the 2023 FIBA World Cup, Yamaha wasted no time in lending its support to the Gilas Pilipinas
Men’s Basketball team. Being rooted deeply in the nation’s culture, where basketball rules above all sports, it was going to be an exciting ride leading up to the
highly anticipated tournament. Officially named the Lifestyle Motorcycle of Gilas Pilipinas, Yamaha established its passion for supporting the Filipino athlete and the toughness it requires to achieve success.

Mio Gear heralds the ideal partner for any challenges

It goes beyond being one of the partners whose logos are included on ad placements. Yamaha Motor Philippines embodied the characteristics of those who
chased greatness. At the forefront of this partnership was the Mio Gear, heralded as the toughest Mio Model. A machine that is an ideal partner for the challenges you
face and the obstacles that hammer away your fortitude. That is what the players of Gilas Pilipinas showed throughout their entire campaign. From selection to
training, traveling across the seas for qualifying tournaments against the best of Asia, hurdling through distractions, and standing dauntless against unfathomable
expectations.

Overflowing passion of the Filipinos at the FIBA World Cup

When the FIBA World Cup was finally underway it was a wave of overflowing passion by the Filipinos, and it was almost enough to push Gilas Pilipinas to the next
level. But when it faced consecutive losses and was challenged by scrutiny. It was a test of character, a battle of wills, and like in every battle it was time to play your
tough. Through it all Yamaha would not waver in its support. Relentlessly revving for a breakthrough. And it finally came in the last match where Gilas Pilipinas drubbed China and secured their spot for the Olympic Qualifying Tournament.

The support of Yamaha Motor Philippines as the official lifestyle motorcycle of Gilas Pilipinas did not end with the World Cup. Now, it continues its support for the
national team as they embark on their next challenge. To show their toughness in the Asian Games and finally claim the throne as the best basketball powerhouse in
the continent.

Will they achieve glory? Yamaha believes so and remains firmly alongside Gilas Pilipinas no matter the outcome. Now that’s tough.
