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.
