Adamas hopes for zero doping rates in Sukma


PUTRAJAYA: The Anti-Doping Agency Malaysia (Adamas) has set high hopes that the upcoming 2024 Malaysia Games (Sukma) in Sarawak this August will be free from any doping cases.

Its director Azura Abidin chose not to provide any guarantees but wants all competing states to contest transparently and cleanly during the biennial Games, stating that the agency intends to conduct random testing on sports with higher possibility of doping, including weightlifting, which has been embroiled in several doping scandals.
