Politiking musnahkan Sarawak jadi kuasa sukan

September 04, 2016

POLITIKING dalaman persatuan sukan menyebabkan Sarawak gagal menjadi juara keseluruhan Sukan Malaysia (Sukma) ke-18 yang dianjurkan negeri itu dari 20 hingga 30 Julai lepas.

Sehubungan itu, Menteri Muda Belia dan Sukan, Datuk Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah berkata, proses 'pembersihan' perlu dilakukan untuk membolehkan Sarawak menjadi kuasa sukan di negara ini pada masa hadapan.

"Kita harus melakukan 'pembersihan' ini untuk memastikan persatuan sukan dalam keadaan baik, menentukan pusat kecemerlangan berada di tempat yang betul dan atlet yang benar-benar layak mewakili negeri," katanya.

Abdul Karim berkata demikian ketika menutup Kejohanan Trek dan Padang Terbuka Sibu yang dianjurkan Persatuan Olahraga Bahagian Sibu di Stadium Tun Zaidi di sini hari ini.

Beliau membayangkan proses 'pembersihan' itu dilakukan secepat mungkin kerana Sarawak menyasarkan menjadi juara keseluruhan pada Sukma ke-19 di Perak pada 2018.

‘Take part in co-curricular activities’


KOTA SAMARAHAN: Academic excellence alone does not measure a student’s success.

Making this remark in his speech at the closing of the 11th Sports Meet for Secondary Schools in Samarahan Division yesterday, Assistant Minister of Youth Development Datuk Abdul Karim Hamzah said a student should be involved in co-curricular activities so that they will be more complete and ready when they proceed to another stage in life.

“You must balance your academics and co-curricular activities and this is one of the ways you can show ability not only as an individual but in a team,” he said.

Teamwork is a useful lesson to learn and will be beneficial to an individual later in life, he added.

Abdul Karim said such an athletic meet is also good to scout for a ‘bank’ of athletes that can represent the division, the state or nation.

He praised secondary schools and the youth of Samarahan division for winning many sport trophies for the state and urged them to keep up the good work.

Abdul Karim also pledged RM20,000 for Majlis Sukan Sekolah-Sekolah Malaysia (MSSM) Samarahan Division for it to continue with sports development programmes.

Asajaya a pool for sport champs


KUCHING: Assistant Minister of Youth Development, Datuk Haji Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah believed that Asajaya district can become a pool for sport champions who not only will bring pride to Sarawak but also to the nation.

His observation was based on the presence of youths from the village who excelled in sports at the school level.

“We are aware that Asajaya district is popular among the local community in football during the Raya season with the venue held at Kampung Sambir, Asajaya,” he said.

“Now many of the young people who hail from the village have achieved recognition for their involvement at higher level sports throughout the year,” he added during the Students Excellence Award 2013 ceremony at Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan (SMK) Asajaya No.2 yesterday.

Among the students who shined out in sports was Mohd Shahril Rahim Khalid who won the Special Sport Award for representing SMK Asajaya No.2 and helped the school to become runners up in the CIMB-Cobra-KRFC School 7s Rugby Under 18 Championship 2013 recently.

“Mohd Shahril do possess the talent to reach greater heights in sport as shown by his form at the Malaysian Schools Sports Council (MSSM) championship this yeari,” said Abdul Karim who also praised other excellent athletes from the school.
