The National Press Club Malaysia (NPC) plans to host a larger media sports gathering in Kuala Lumpur next year, according to its treasurer Sharanjit Singh. The event will feature football, badminton, bowling, pool, and darts, among other sports. Sharanjit, who is also the deputy group editor of the New Straits Times, emphasized that these friendly games serve as a platform for media practitioners from Borneo and Semenanjung to reconnect and build stronger relationships beyond their professional commitments.
The NPC's Medcomm KK tournament, which originated as a national media sports event before the Covid-19 pandemic, has since expanded to include Kota Kinabalu, Penang, and now Kuala Lumpur. The event brings together media practitioners and representatives from various organizations, including the NPC, Youth and Sports Ministry, Sabah Tourism Board, and Energy Commission of Sabah.
Sabah Assistant Minister to the Chief Minister Datuk Caesar Mandela Malakun highlighted the importance of such gatherings in strengthening relationships between the media, government, and other stakeholders.
