MP calls for more tournament­s to promote sports in Beluran

-

BELURAN: Beluran member of parliament Datuk Seri Dr Ronald Kiandee has called on sports leaders to organise more tournament­s to promote sports activities here.

He said it is to utilize the facilities provided by the government, especially to meet the needs of the youth.

“Even though Beluran has the facilities to host tournament­s or competitio­ns, there is still a lack of sports activities held here.

“I challenge the sports leaders to organise more sports activities as we at the Beluran Parliament­ary Office will always give our support, especially in sponsoring the activities,” he said when opening the Beluran MP Cup Football Championsh­ip yesterday.

There will be 32 teams competing in the championsh­ip held at Beluran Sports Complex from April 1 to 7.

Also present were Beluran Umno Youth chief Samad Jambri, Beluran Youth and Sports officer Roland Henry Lindan and Beluran Umno Division vicechairm­an Ariffin Bacho.

Among the sports facilities in Beluran are the sports complex, futsal courts and the community hall, Ronald added.

“The provision of these sports facilities is a continuing commitment of the government to meet the needs of the people, especially youth,” he said.

In the meantime, Ronald called on the youths not to be easily influenced by the opposition and false news spread through social media.

Hence, he said any informatio­n and news disseminat­ed should be examined for its validity.
