We are indeed delighted to be officially given the task by Sukma Supreme Committee of hosting the 21st edition of Malaysia Games (SUKMA) to be held in July next year. The committee members including our Minister of Youth and Sports Malaysia, YB Hannah Yeoh during their recent meeting in Putrajaya had agreed for Sarawak to host next SUKMA which we had previously hosted in 1990 and in 2016.
Before this, it was announced that Sarawak can be the next Sukma host and I had also brought this matter up in the Sarawak Cabinet meeting and the official announcement was made in our favour.
We are ready to become host because facilities wise, Sarawak had enough of it to become host the Games except for a velodrome for cycling. We are planning to organise the events for this Sukma not only in Kuching but in Miri and Sibu. Our Ministry of Youth, Sports and Entrepreneur Development will meet soon to discuss the preparations and also the associations and stakeholders to ensure the games run successfully.
We have less than 500 days to prepare. These are our constraints and also on how much the federal government will support us but I am sure all Sarawakians will come to help and support our efforts to make ourselves the best host and overall champions in Sukma 2024.
