With them is FT Sports Council director Nik Ahmad Zahiruddin Nik Saleh. — Bernama THE soon-to-be built Putrajaya Sports Complex will boost athlete development in the Federal Territories and strengthen the national sports ecosystem. Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Federal Territories) Datuk Seri Dr Zaliha Mustafa said the suggestion to build the complex was well received by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. Currently, she said discussions were being held with stakeholders to make it a success. 'We started considering it, after seeing the encouraging performance of our Federal Territories athletes upon returning from the Malaysia Games (Sukma) in Sarawak. 'Based on that, we had a discussion at the senior management level and came up with the idea to build a sports complex with Putrajaya being the ideal location,' she told Bernama after presenting Madani aid worth RM278,000 to 27 sporting bodies based in Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya. Dr Zaliha added that the complex would focus on high performance sports and would help every national and Federal Territories athlete. The facilities at the complex were being fine-tuned with several stakeholders, she said. 'We will meet with the Prime Minister's Department's Public-Private Partnership Unit and discuss the matter further.' In her speech earlier, Dr Zaliha said she had instructed the Federal Territories Sports Council to introduce a star ranking system for sporting bodies in the Federal Territories to ensure that they were managed well. The elements considered for assessment in the ranking system include document management and governance, efficient financial management and achievements as well as success at national and international level. 'I'm confident that with this ranking system, sports bodies will be more competitive and disciplined to ensure performance in the Federal Territories remain at an excellent level.'

Reflecting on the race, Kabui described it as 'tough', adding she had to give her all. Samson said he enjoyed the event and praised the trail. 'This is our first time winning a jungle trekking event in Malaysia. 'We learnt about the competition from a Malaysian friend in Sandakan,' he said. Samson added that both he and Kabui are marathon runners and will undergo intensive training at home before entering their next race. Meanwhile, local runners Lim Siet Fah and Teo Lian Geok expressed disappointment over their performance, citing changes in the format. 'In the previous competition in December 2023, it was primarily jungle trekking. 'This time, it was 50% road running and 50% jungle trekking. 'My strength lies in jungle trekking, so it put me at a disadvantage,' said Lim, a vocational school teacher from Kuching. Teo echoed Lim's sentiments. Lim, the 2023 Women's Open category champion, finished third this time. Teo secured second place in the 7km Women's Veteran category. In the Men's Open category, second place went to Belfon Mosolan (RM1,500) and third to Saidi Suni (RM1,000).

UUE to venture into solar PV via unit Enerxite
PETALING JAYA: UUE Holdings Bhd will venture into the solar photovoltaic (PV) industry through a 60% owned subsidiary called Enerxite Sdn Bhd. The joint venture (JV) partner Daryl Lai Yit Sheng, 36, will hold the remaining equity stake in Enerxite. UUE said in a statement that the mechanical engineer would lead and spearhead UUE's venture into the renewable energy (RE) sector. It would subscribe for the equity stake in Enerxite by investing RM599,990, a company in which it already has an initial paid-up capital of RM10. Lai would subscribe his portion in Enerxite for RM400,000 in cash, it said. 'UUE has identified the RE sector as a potential business segment which the group believes can be developed given the favourable potential of sustainable renewal energy sources. 'UUE intends to begin its involvement in this business industry with the engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning of solar PV systems for a start and progressively immerse itself into other segments,' it said. 'UUE, as the primary capital contributor and corporate owner, will provide strategic direction and corporate governance oversight.
