KUCHING: The move to establish a sports museum here in Sarawak has received warm response from state politicians, sports officials and sports personalities alike.
The sports museum was the brainchild of The Borneo Post and the fi rst of its kind here.
According to Assistant Minister of Youth Development Abdul Karim Hamzah, it is timely that the state finally has a sports museum to celebrate and honour the sporting heroes of Sarawak.
He commented that the idea of a sports museum is very much welcomed and congratulated The Borneo Post for coming up with the initiative.
It will be a useful source of inspiration and reminder for the generations to come on the important landmarks in Sarawak’s sports history.
“The sports museum is the place for us to keep our rich sporting history for the younger and later generations to see.
In this case, the Sarawak Sports Museum would be a place for our present and future generations to see who has contributed to sports glory and bring up the name of Sarawak in the national and international stage,” he said.
