Hanna Shen wrote that critics of Karol Nawrocki's participation in the boxing training with Manny Pacquiao expected a lecture, but saw the president in the ring instead. In her opinion, the recording published by Pacquiao could have reached millions of Filipinos and served as effective promotion for Poland. She reminded that Pacquiao was a former senator and the only world champion in eight weight classes in history. Shen noted that Nawrocki also spoke at the Catholic University of Santo Tomas in Manila, founded by Dominicans in 1611. According to her, the university was older than Harvard and was considered the oldest functioning university in Asia. She wrote that José Rizal studied there, and Nawrocki laid a wreath at his statue. She also mentioned Pope Francis's meeting with young people at the university in 2015. According to Shen, the president spoke to students about the shared experiences of Poland and the Philippines, such as foreign domination and the struggle to preserve identity, as well as about faith, family, solidarity, freedom, and sovereignty. He also recalled the Russian invasion of Ukraine and hybrid attacks on Poland, emphasizing that deterrence requires strength. Shen believed that this message could be understood in a country dealing with Chinese pressures at sea. She added that serious discussions, a lecture, and training with a boxing legend could have been elements of the same diplomatic visit. https://t.co/O6JtNM19h7 #Polska #Filipiny #dyplomacja (translated)

Karol Michalak wrote that in his opinion Legia did not appreciate the struggle of the Wisła community against systemic discrimination, which it had been conducting for the past few years. He claimed that the actions of the clubs were being verified, mainly by Lysypokrakowska, and false information was being corrected. He added that Legia was not much different in this respect from clubs in lower leagues. He reminded that recently it was close to relegation and assessed that organizationally it presented first-league aspirations. As examples, Michalak mentioned situations concerning Wisła fans. He wrote that Motor Lublin justified its decision with safety concerns, although in the justification it described the behaviors of Górnik Łęczna. In the case of Górnik Łęczna, the club referred, according to him, to a decision by the mayor, who allegedly denied having made it and stated that he did not see a problem. Michalak also stated that GKS Tychy explained its decision by renovation and mourning for the death of the pope, but after a delegate's visit, they were ordered to play the match. Chrobry was said to have referred to a police opinion, which — as the author reported — declared to ensure safety. Kotwica Kołobrzeg also indicated a police opinion, but it supposedly communicated that the club did not ask for it and issued none. Miedź did not consult the police for an opinion, and the police were said to have concluded that Wisła fans should be let in. Regarding Stal Stalowa Wola, Michalak wrote that the club referred to the position of the police, which denied having issued a recommendation. Stal Rzeszów allegedly spoke of a police opinion, although it did not evaluate the ban. Wisła Płock justified its decision with safety concerns, but the police reportedly conveyed that the club did not ask for their opinion. Śląsk referred to talks with the police, which publicly denied the information provided. The author also reminded that GKS Tychy justified another decision with a breakdown after a downpour, even though in the meantime they played a home match. Pogoń Siedlce pointed to a turnstile malfunction, and Wisła was said to have proposed a self-repair; later the reason was changed to safety concerns. The police were said to have assured that they would guarantee safety. Arka referred to renovations coinciding with the match against Wisła, despite a 75-day break between competitions. Stal Mielec justified its decision with renovation, and the city reportedly assured it would be completed before the match, after which the decision was changed. Michalak summarized that Wisła fans were collectively denied entry to matches 31 times and wrote that Legia found itself in this group. #Wisła #Legia #dyskryminacja (translated)

Work is something more than economics. It is the dignity of a person and responsibility for the common good. The President of the Republic of Poland, Karol Nawrocki, emphasized during the ceremony of presenting statuettes and certificates in the XVIII edition of the "Employer Friendly to Employees" Competition that: "Thanks to Solidarity, thanks to the wonderful spirit of the 1980s, we also have Article 20 of the Constitution and a certain spirit of development of the Polish economy. This spirit also comes from the wonderful encyclical of the greatest Pole in the history of the 20th century, Pope John Paul II, who in the encyclical 'Laborem Exercens' directly wrote that we should look at work precisely in terms of human dignity, for work is not only about economic efficiency, but also provides a deep sense of dignity, the realization of one's aspirations, the creation of common good, and the building of family. I think that we are programmed this way as a national community, as Poles, that the person and the worker are always at the center and are the point of reference also for wonderful Polish entrepreneurs." #praca #godność #Solidarność (translated)
