KERAJAAN negeri Terengganu mengumumkan penajaan Jersi Kuning kejohanan lumba basikal Le Tour de Langkawi (LTdL) 2013 berjumlah RM2 juta.

Menteri Besar, Datuk Seri Ahmad Said berkata, penajaan tersebut membuktikan sokongan padu kerajaan Terengganu terhadap penganjuran kejohanan lumba basikal paling berprestij di benua Asia itu.
"Pada masa sama, penajaan itu menepati hasrat kerajaan negeri untuk mempromosikan Tahun Melawat Terengganu (TMT) 2013 yang jatuh pada tahun ini.

"Ia seiring dengan komitmen negeri untuk terus melahirkan jaguh basikal dalam kalangan anak negeri (Terengganu).

"Jersi Kuning (LTdL) kali ini memaparkan tema Tahun Melawat Terengganu dengan jelas dan ia memberi penjenamaan yang meluas untuk negeri ini di persada antarabangsa," katanya.
Beliau ditemui pemberita selepas majlis penyerahan replika cek tajaan berjumlah RM2 juta untuk LTdL 2013 kepada Timbalan Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Penganjur LTdL, Datuk Abd. Jalil Abdullah di Wisma Darul Iman, Kuala Terengganu, Terengganu semalam.

Hadir sama, Setiausaha Kerajaan negeri, Datuk Mazlan Ngah; Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Belia dan Sukan negeri, Rozi Mamat; Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Pelancongan, Kebudayaan, Kesenian dan Warisan negeri, Datuk Abdul Rahin Mohd. Said; Pengarah Majlis Sukan Negeri Terengganu (MSNT), Zainal Abidin Hussin serta Ketua Sekretariat TMT 2013, Ahmad Fathil Abd. Ghani.

Turut serta dalam majlis itu ialah Presiden Persekutuan Kebangsaan Berbasikal Malaysia (PKBM), Datuk Abu Samah Abd Wahab; Ketua Pegawai Operasi LTdL 2013, Emir Abdul Jalal dan Presiden Persatuan Lumba Basikal Terengganu, Ahmad Sidi Ismail.

Ahmad menambah, kerajaan negeri mahu menggunakan sepenuhnya peluang untuk mempromosikan Terengganu menerusi LTdL kerana ia diakui antara acara sukan berbasikal yang besar di pentas antarabangsa.

Katanya, penajaan Jersi Kuning tersebut pasti akan memberi ruang penjenamaan TMT 2013 dengan lebih meluas, terutamanya dalam promosi televisyen antarabangsa.

"Selain daripada penjenamaan logo TMT 2013 di kesemua stesen televisyen serta media cetak menerusi LTdL, pihak penganjur juga memberikan tiga peringkat perlumbaan untuk diadakan di negeri ini.

"Ini bukan sahaja akan memberikan ruang promosi selama tiga jam kepada stesen TV domestik dan antarabangsa tetapi turut membuka peluang kepada semua rakyat Terengganu untuk menikmati limpahan ekonomi dari segi hotel serta perniagaan kecil selain berpeluang menonton aksi perlumbaan itu," katanya.

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...
