Syed Saddiq: ‘The 2019 athletes training programme will continue to be called the Podium Programme to inspire athletes to get on the podium in any tournaments or events they compete in.’
PETALING JAYA: The Youth and Sports Ministry has made a U-turn by bringing back the Podium Programme.
The revised national athletes training programme, now flushed with more funds, will focus on five major sporting events – Tokyo Olympics/Paralympics 2020; Birmingham Commonwealth Games 2022, Hanzhou Asian/Para Asian Games 2022; 2019 Manila SEA Games/Para Asean Games and 2021 Vietnam SEA Games/Para Asean Games.
