Successful staging of 2024 PARA Sukma and Malaysia Games 2024 (SUKMA2024)

With successful staging of the 21st edition of PARA Sukma and Malaysia Games 2024 (SUKMA2024), Sarawak had shown its capabilities and readiness to host bigger sporting events which will be the 2027 Southeast Asia Games (ASEAN Games 2027) and ASEAN PARA Games (APG) 2027.

Sarawak's success in staging the nation's largest sporting events had also received nothing but praises from people all over including the Federal Government and Ministry of Youth and Sports Malaysia (KBS) which had given us the nod to co-host the forthcoming ASEAN Games and ASEAN Para Games (APG) 2027.

We thank the trust given by the Federal Government and KBS in giving Sarawak the opportunity to gain valuable experience for the organization of larger sporting events which will be the pride of every Malaysian and especially among our local folks. 

In this year's edition of PARA Sukma, Sarawak had wrested back the overall champion's title from Sabah and our OKU athletes had bagged a total of 82 gold, 52 silver and 74 bronze medals. Our athletes had also set 71 new games' records and had rewritten 22 new national records in the week long PARA Sukma which started on September 22 and ended on 28.

The closing ceremony was held at at Sarawak Indoor Stadium in Petra Jaya, Kuching and it was graced by our Ministry of Youth and Sports Malaysia, YB Puan Hannah Yeoh.
