The Philippine Olympic Committee remains upset over the decision by Southeast Asian Games host Burma to remove several popular events, such as tennis, gymnastics and beach volleyball, from the games. The committee will now bring the issue to the attention of the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA), newspaper the Philippine Star reports.
