12th sukma in kuala terengganu

greetings.

just got back from kuala terengganu where the 12th malaysian games or sukan malaysia (sukma) is taking place. it was officiated by the yang di pertuan agong at the beautiful sultan mizan stadium located near gong badak on may 31st.

athletes from all the malaysian states including representatives from brunei are participating. the many sports are played at various location in the districts of terengganu such as dungun and kemaman to name a few.

it is interesting to note the official terengganu mascot which is a fish reminiscent of nemo from the film "finding nemo". this mascot is called si diman.

the next sukma will be held in the historic city of malacca in 2010. hopefully melaka will showcase its mascot (wonder what?) at the closing ceremony of sukma 12 on june 9 at the same venue.

preparation is under way for a glittering sukma 13 in malacca. surely in this intriguing historic city, sukma 13 will be one to remember!

what say you?
