Syarikat korporat diminta taja pelumba basikal


MENTERI Belia dan Sukan, Datuk Ahmad Shabery Cheek meminta syarikat korporat, khususnya di Terengganu menaja pelumba basikal tempatan yang berjaya mencipta nama di peringkat antarabangsa dan mengharumkan nama negara.

Katanya, sokongan penajaan daripada syarikat tempatan perlu bagi mengurangkan pergantungan atlit kepada dana kerajaan semata-mata dalam usaha menyemarakkan kemajuan sukan lumba basikal negara yang kini semakin menonjol di persada antarabangsa.

Beliau berkata, ramai jaguh lumba basikal negara seperti Mohd Azizulhasni Awang dan Anuar Manan yang berjaya mencatat kejayaan cemerlang dalam pelbagai perlumbaan dunia, justeru syarikat swasta di negeri ini perlu lebih prihatin dan turut mengambil bahagian menaja mereka.



“Menerusi penajaan, syarikat tempatan dapat mempromosi syarikat masing-masing ke peringkat antarabangsa apabila jaguh lumba basikal kita memperagakan logo atau jenama produk syarikat,” katanya selepas merasmikan Mesyuarat Agung Majlis Permuafakatan Ibu Bapa dan Guru (PIBG) dan Majlis Kurnia Bestari di Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Badrul Alam Shah, Kemasek di Chukai, Terengganu, semalam, kelmarin.

Mengulas lanjut, Ahmad Shabery berkata, beliau tidak menafikan ada syarikat korporat atau swasta di negeri ini yang melakukan pelbagai program khidmat sosial seperti memberikan sumbangan kepada sekolah dan PIBG, tetapi setakat ini tiada sebarang tajaan diberikan terhadap jaguh sukan seperti lumba basikal.

Malaysian junior athletes are just too ‘lembik’

Saya setuju. We are working on more coaches! “ @ManOlimpik : Malaysian junior athletes are just too ‘lembik’ http://t.co/7D7wmHWaNy ” — Khairy Jamaluddin (@Khairykj) June 10, 2014 The benchmark. Can our junior athletes train as hard as Malaysia's world No.1 badminton player, Lee Chong Wei? “IT IS okay lah. The training is not too bad lah. I will try lah … Wah, so hard lah today.” These are some of the common statements I hear from our juniors nowadays. It is not only in badminton. It is the easy-going, laid-back attitude and lack of competitiveness at grassroots level that we have problems producing quality players. I have travelled quite a bit. After ending my decade-long career with the national team, I went to play in the league in Europe. It’s different there. The European athletes know what they want. And they do it with real focus. Even the young ones possess admirable self-control and show a high level of commitment. During my time in the ...

Organising Major Sports Events Can Inspire Sports Culture Among The People - Khairy

PUTRAJAYA, June 5 (Bernama) -- Organising major sports events can help inspire sports culture among the people and ensure a healthy lifestyle said Youth and Sports Minister Khairy Jamaluddin. Khairy said the Tour of Malaysia cycling race organised since 1963, for example, can encourage more people to take the sport in a more competitive way or just for recreation purposes. "A study carried out by a world renown medical journal, The Lancet, revealed that 61 percent of adults in Malaysia do not engage themselves in active sports. "A study by the Health Ministry revealed that only 25 percent of Malaysians exercise," he said in his speech when launching the 2013 Tour of Malaysia (Jelajah Malaysia) at the Youth and Sports Ministry, here, Wednesday. "Cycling, though not as popular here as in countries like Denmark, the activity is becoming popular among the people as can be seen through an increase in sale of bicycles for recreation," he sa...

Sports press clippings on the 24 April 2008

Sports Minister Datuk Ismail Sabri Yaakob (centre) speaks to athletes after giving away the Olympic qualifying incentives in Putrajaya yesterday. — Pic: RAMDZAN MASIAM Thomas Cup Equally Important, Says Ismail PUTRAJAYA, April 23 (Bernama) -- Although Malaysia want badly a badminton gold at the Beijing Olympics in August, winning the Thomas Cup in Jakarta in May is equally important, said Youth and Sports Minister Datuk Ismail Sabri Yaakob. "My ministry deems all events participated by the national badminton squad as important including the Thomas Cup, which Malaysia last won in 1992. "Statements made that the Beijing Olympics takes precedence over other events is not the position of the ministry," he told reporters at his office here today. Ismail said no matter what events Malaysians competed, seeking glory for the nation should be the overriding priority. He said this when asked to comment on remarks by national badminton chief coach Yap Kim Hock on...
