Three muscling their way to world titles
By SUSAN OREAPE-FARAPO
THREE Papua New Guinean bodybuilders leave today to take part in the World
Bodybuilding championships in South Korea.
Joe Kulame, Jack Viyufa and Wilfred Kurua will participate in the 61st World
Amateur Bodybuilding Championships in Jeju city on Oct 25-29.
PNG will be up against more than 1,000 bodybuilders from 100-plus countries.
“This is the first time in 13 years that the sport has been strong enough to
send athletes to this level of competition. It would not be possible without
major sponsor Trukai Industries,” team manager Randolph Albrecht said
yesterday.
This will be the second for PNG in at the world championships after China in
1994 when Viyufa and John Waglep contested.
The PNG Bodybuilding Federation (PNGBBF) has all the confidence in the team
led by Viyufa succeeding at the high competition level.
