Bald and bold, as Saddiq takes on RM1mil Ironman challenge


PETALING JAYA: Muar MP Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman (pic) has a million reasons to push beyond limit at this year Ironman Malaysia in Langkawi tomorrow.

The former Youth and Sports Minister, who has shaved his head bald for the race, is gearing up for the gruelling challenge, where he must swim 3.8km, cycle 180km and run 42.2km – all in under 13 hours – to unlock a RM1mil donation for Muar from local fashion brand Prima Valet (PV).
