Just came
back from the 28th Sabah Dragon Boat Race, happening in these two
days from 15th to 16th of June 2013, 8am onwards.
It’s been
almost 6 years since I left All Saints and today I did enjoy the view of our
very own Likas Bay here at Kota Kinabalu. Beautiful and clear view of our
magnificent Mount Kinabalu, calm sea water at the bay, fresh air to breathe
with, it’s just another good day to begin with.
Finding
parking might be a headache for late comers, so be aware of that. Parking at
the road side is an option or you might need to do a little walking from any
parts of the Likas area. Imagine, I was there at 6.30am and I’m lucky enough to
get a little spot to park my car.
Heat races begin after the sportsmen oath taking ceremony.
Men’s Open
200 meters race (12 crew), Mix team 200 meters race (12 crew), Breast Cancer
Survival Race 200, Kinabalu Dragon Trophy (Junior boys under 20 years old),
Sabah Dragon Trophy (International & Malaysian Mix Teams), Sabah Chief
Minister’s Trophy (Malaysian Men’s Teams), Sabah Head of State Trophy
(International & Top Malaysian Men’s Teams).
Race ended
at 11.30am.
On the RIGHT: A couple of tourists came to the event venue and asked if
they can join the competition but this is all depend on the race managers. So
do come by the secretariat and ask for more information, they are really helpful
in providing all information. On the LEFT: These are the MC for the Sabah Dragon Boat Race. Personally, they are my father’s colleagues in RTM before he retires. Spend some
time talking to them, I have found out that they have been MC-ing for this
event for almost 10 years! WOW.
