KUALA LUMPUR: Langkawi island being excluded as one of the stages in the Le Tour de Langkawi (LTdL) 2023 from Sept 23-30 is not a first in the 26-year history of the road cycling race, the Dewan Rakyat was told on Monday (Sept 18).
Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh said in fact, the organisers have always retained Langkawi as the iconic name for the cycling tour with Pro Series status in the International Cycling Union (UCI) calendar.
