Fit Malaysia records 100,000 participants

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 24 — Fit Malaysia, organised by the Ministry of Youth and Sports (KBS), concludes today with 100,000 participants participating in the programme since it started in August.

Deputy Minister Adam Adli Abdul Halim said the ministry is satisfied with the encouraging response from various walks of life in all states.

“We are satisfied with the responses in all states and hope this momentum can continue on the National Sports Day, which will be held next month,” he told reporters after officiating the Fit Malaysia Kuala Lumpur 2023 at Dataran Merdeka today.

Kuala Lumpur is the final location for the 2023 Fit Malaysia after it began in Penang in August.

It serves as a platform to promote sporting activities and fitness in the community to adopt an active and healthy lifestyle.

Fit Malaysia is a part of National Sports Day, scheduled to take place from October 13 to October 15 on the district and state levels nationwide, while the national-level celebration is to be held on October 14 at the grounds of the Palace of Justice, Putrajaya.
