PROTON Holdings Berhad terus setia bersama kejohanan lumba basikal Le Tour de Langkawi (LTdL).
Semalam syarikat automobil nasional itu menghulu sokongan besar terhadap penganjuran LTdL 2010 apabila tampil menjadi kende- raan rasmi perlumbaan yang akan memasuki edisi ke- 15 pada 1 hingga 7 Mac depan.
Bagi saingan tahun ini Proton Hol- dings Berhad akan menyediakan 180 unit kereta Proton pelbagai model untuk digunakan pegawai perlumbaan, pengurusan pasu- kan dan petugas sepanjang tujuh peringkat LTdL 2010.

Untuk menghangatkan lagi saingan kejohanan ini yang akan bermula di Kota Bharu Isnin depan, Proton menaja Jersi Biru untuk kategori Pelumba Terbaik Asia.

Selain itu, pengeluar kereta nasional tersebut turut menyumbang baju-T dan topi untuk digunakan pegawai perlumbaan selain booth pameran di lokasi permulaan dan penamat serta cenderamata yang akan diagihkan kepada penonton pada perarakan Calvacade.


Dengan deretan kereta Proton pelbagai model di sepanjang lokasi dan laluan yang akan ditempuh pada perlumbaan kali ini, tradisi penglibatan Proton dengan LTdL membuktikan kerjasama erat kedua- dua pihak untuk menjayakan LTdL sejak sekian lama hingga jelajah itu mencapai status tertinggi 2 HC ketika ini.
Ketua Pegawai Kewangan Proton Holding Sdn. Bhd., Azhar Othman menyerahkan penajaan tersebut di Pusat Kecemerlangan Proton di Shah Alam semalam.

Turut hadir ialah Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif LTDL 2010, Mohamed Salleh dan Presiden Persekutuan Kebangsaan Berbasikal Malaysia (PKBM), Abu Samah Wahab.

Dalam ucapannya, Azhar berkata, penajaan Proton untuk LTdL membuktikan syarikat pengeluar kereta nasional itu menyokong agenda sukan peringkat antarabangsa di negara ini.

Menurut beliau, ini kerana ia turut membolehkan Proton mendapat faedah menerusi pengiklanan secara langsung kepada masyarakat di sepanjang laluan yang digunakan pelumba dan masyarakat antarabangsa serta pelancong yang menyaksikan siaran tersebut di kaca televisyen.

"Situasi 'menang-menang' ini jugalah yang membuatkan Proton terus memilih LTdL sebagai antara keutamaannya setiap tahun.

"Proton amat berharap Jersi Biru tajaan kami bagi kategori Pelumba Terbaik Asia akan menambah cabaran dalam perlumbaan ini," kata Azhar.

Ex-coach's jail sentence cut to a year

PUTRAJAYA: The Court of Appeal yesterday sentenced former athletics coach C. Ramanathan to 12 months' jail for molesting two junior athletes 19 years ago. A three-man bench led by Datuk Mohd Hishamudin Mohd Yunus unanimously dismissed Ramanathan's appeal against conviction, but varied the jail sentence of four years to a year, which was to run concurrently. Following yesterday's ruling, Ramanathan, 75, a former teacher, walked out a free man as he had served 10 months in Kajang Prison. Convicts get one-third remission for good behaviour while in prison. However, he will lose his pension. Hishamudin, who sat with Datuk Abdul Wahab Patail and Datuk Linton Albert, said the court found no merit to overturn the conviction.
