: The government has agreed to designate Sarawak as a co-host of the SEA Games when the country hosts the regional sporting event in 2027, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim announced tonight.
“Sarawak’s outstanding management of the SUKMA 2024 has demonstrated its capability to host major sporting events. On behalf of the Malaysian government, I am pleased to confirm that Sarawak will partner with us to host the SEA Games in 2027,” he said during the closing ceremony of the biennial Games at the Unity Stadium here.
“The exceptional atmosphere at the opening was so impressive that some have even claimed it rivalled the Paris Olympics. This truly reflects Sarawak’s spirit of ‘Segulai Sejalai,’” he said, referring to the Iban phrase meaning ‘together with each other’. Anwar underscored the importance of beginning preparations immediately, calling on the Youth and Sports Ministry and sports bodies to concentrate on enhancing the quality and performance of the athletes.“We have committed to hosting an international sporting event, and with the cooperation of the Sarawak state government here in Kuching, preparations must involve the entire government machinery and sports associations.
