I have congratulated organisers of this year’s “Rentap Fighting Championship 7.0” which had been successful in attracting thousands of spectators and supporters at the Summer Mall shopping complex. The majority of the Muay Thai fans consists of our young folks and among the participants in this exciting championship had come from throughout Sarawak, West Malaysia and Thailand. The crowd went ecstatic when some of the bouts had featured popular young exponents who had represented Sarawak in previous Malaysia Games (SUKMA) and Malaysia in last year’s SEA Games held in Bangkok, Thailand.
In recent years, our State Government through Ministry of Tourism, Creative Industry & Performing Arts Sarawak (MTCP) as well as Ministry of Youth, Sports & Entrepreneur Development Sarawak (MYSED) had lend support to the organisers.
A pat on the back to the organisers which had added a meaningful program that is an anti-bullying awareness campaign. It is an interesting initiative that took off at the Summer Shopping Mall with the objective of promoting child safety. The laudable campaign had also reinforced the message of martial arts not meant to encourage bullying, but to nurture discipline, respect and contribute positive character development.
Thumbs up to the program which was also expanded into educational sessions for parents, particularly on issues related to child abuse and mitigating efforts to address the issue.
