KUCHING: A total of 133 participants from
Batu Kitang and Batu Kawah area joined the Youth Transformation Programme held
at Matang Wildlife Centre here.
The programme, entitled “Kawan Ku Sayang,
Keluarga Ku Kenang”, organised by Ministry of Youth, Sport and Solidarity took
place from 11-13 December.
Batu Kitang State Assemblyman, Lo Khere
Chiang said the programme aimed to develop good leadership skills among the
youths.
“Besides good leadership skills, education
is also one of the key hallmarks of great leaders,” added Lo during the closing
ceremony yesterday.
Earlier on, Lo had a dialogue session with
the 16 participants during which the latter had the opportunity to make special
requests to Lo on behalf of other youths.
“I am grateful for the dialogue session
which allows me to listen directly to the youths’ needs.
“I can see the leadership skills of the
youths who represent their villages or areas and their courage in speaking on
behalf of the other youths,” said Lo, who is also Chairman for Padawan
Municipal Council (MPP).
He hoped the programme would be held
annually.
