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.

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. "However, in reducing the sentence, we considered Ramanathan's age and the long years the appeal has taken." Deputy public prosecutor Awang Armadajaya Awang Mahmud submitted that then High Court judge Tan Sri Abdull Hamid E...

Badminton: Fans rooting for all-Malaysian semis

Reports: RAJES PAUL KUALA LUMPUR: The home fans will be rooting for an all-Malaysian men’s singles semi-final between Lee Chong Wei and Liew Daren. But Chong Wei is more fancied to advance than Daren in quarter-final matches against Indonesian Simon Santoso and Dane Peter Gade-Christensen respectively at the Putra Stadium in Bukit Jalil today. Yesterday, Chong Wei defeated Vietnamese Nguyen Tien Minh 21-9, 18-21, 21-7 in a second-round match that saw the world number one struggling to adapt to the draught in the stadium in the second game. And Daren continued a fairy tale run in his home Open, blowing away a toothless Hsueh Hsuan-yi of Taiwan 21-14, 21-12. Although Choong Wei had to slog for the win over Tien Minh, the top seed and defending champion felt that he was playing better by the day. “I got off to a good start but found it hard to cope with the draught. I tried to catch up after losing my momentum but that did not happen and I decided to conserve energy for ...

Rajagobal Let Off The Hook

PETALING JAYA, April 24 (Bernama) -- National head coach Datuk K. Rajagobal was let off the hook by the Football Association of Malaysia's (FAM) Disciplinary Committee after finding no evidence that he had violated FAM's Article 88, as claimed. FAM Disciplinary Committee chairman Datuk Taufik Abdul Razak said the committee had decided not to charge Rajagobal after carefully analysing the video of the post-match press conference by the 56-year-old coach. "After listening to the recording of the post-match press conference, we decided to drop the charge against Rajagopal as he did not make such a statement. "Maybe his (Rajagobal) assessment and comments of the match was misconstrued by the media. There was no mention of the FAM policy throughout his comments," said Taufik after emerging from a three-hour Disciplinary Committee meeting at Wisma FAM in Kelana Jaya, here, Wednesday. Rajagobal who does not mince his words when asked to com...
