Kota Kinabalu: The KKCCCI Golf Invitation 2025 saw strong participation and competitive spirit among players from both the business and government sectors. KKCCCI President Datuk Michael Lui said the event symbolised the chamber's evolving identity, driven by the rise of a younger generation of committee members. 'KKCCCI is no longer confined to traditional activities. We are now organising dynamic events that keep pace with the times. 'The newly-formed Young Entrepreneurs sub-group, established this year, will play a vital role in empowering the chamber and uniting young business leaders to push forward mutually beneficial initiatives,' he said. He emphasised the importance of preparing local businesses for the future, particularly as the world advances into the era of AI and automation. 'I look forward to the continued efforts of Vice President Datuk Simon Chee and Director Nicholas Tan, who are helping businesses master advanced skills, enhance digital capabilities and drive industry transformation. 'These efforts are crucial for taking Sabah enterprises onto the global stage,' Michael said. He also commended the organising committee, led by Deputy Director of Primary Commodities, Tobin Ng. 'Today is not just about a round of golf but it is also about coming together as a community to make a difference and reach our goal of business networking,' he said. More than 80 people participated in the competition with Akbar Mohd Said clinching the Golden Tiger award. Also present were Deputy Speaker of the State Legislative Assembly Datuk Al Hambra Tun Juhar, Mayor of City Hall (DBKK) Datuk Seri Dr Sabin Samitah and Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Local Government and Housing Datuk Dr Jamili Nais. He extended his sincere appreciation to all sponsors and participants for their contributions to the event's success, with special mention of Hap Seng Star for generously sponsoring the 'Hole in One' prize. He also reaffirmed the chamber's commitment to making the invitational an annual fixture. 'We will continue to promote this event in the coming years as a platform for fellowship, innovation, and strategic collaboration among business leaders,' he said. The golf tournament forms part of KKCCCI's broader efforts to engage the business community through dynamic and meaningful activities that support growth and transformation. * Follow us on Instagram and join our Telegram and/or WhatsApp channel(s) for the latest news you don't want to miss. * Do you have access to the Daily Express e-paper and online exclusive news?

Golf Pro Has Ultimate Stroke Of Luck To Win A Car On 'Price Is Right'
'The Price Is Right' shared a clip this week of a contestant sinking a golf putt to win a car. But this was no ordinary player. (Watch the video below.) Travis Britt is an assistant pro at Brentwood Country Club in Los Angeles who by chance, it seems, got to play 'Hole in One' for a Hyundai Venue. 'I had no idea we were playing Hole in One by the way,' host Drew Carey said as he let the audience know that Britt does for a living. 'If you miss this putt, hang your head, bro,' Carey said. 'Do not show your face in public.' But first Britt had to try to ace a game pricing products in ascending order, which he did well enough to earn a short putt. 'No pressure right?' Britt said. 'I should sit on your shoulders to make this fair,' Carey cracked. Britt made the shot easily and his entourage went crazy. The episode aired earlier in the month but the clip was understandably making the rounds on Friday. Congrats on the new drive, golf pro.
