Hannah disappointed with WWC organisers over alleged use of child in apology


KUALA LUMPUR: Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh has expressed sadness and regret over the actions of the Warzone World Championship (WWC) organisers for allegedly using a child participant to issue an apology to the Youth and Sports Ministry regarding the organisation of the tournament.

In a social media post, Hannah said the move was inappropriate and raised questions about the organisers’ accountability, given that the event was held without official approval from the Malaysian Commissioner of Sports (PJS) as required under the Sports Development Act 1997 (Act 576).
