“…for example, the most basic sports hall or the most important sports complex facility in the country is the use of the Bukit Jalil National Stadium which used to be more exclusive but is now widely open to use at the school level,” he said.
He said this when appearing as a guest on RTM’s Naratif Khas programme broadcast on TV1 in conjunction with One Year with the Madani government programme yesterday.
