Tang Soo Do is a way of life, says Kota Sentosa rep

KUCHING (July 29): Sports, especially martial arts like Tang Soo Do, are powerful tools in nurturing the physical and mental well-being of Sarawak youth, said Kota Sentosa assemblyman Wilfred Yap.

“Tang Soo Do is a way of life. It instils in our youth important values such as self-discipline, humility, focus, and determination. These values are not only vital in competitions but also in everyday life — in school, at work, and in our communities,” he said at the closing of the 6th Sarawak State Tang Soo Do Championship at SJK Chung Hua Sam Hap Hin in Kota Sentosa on Sunday.

He also commended the Sarawak Tang Soo Do Association for promoting the martial art across the state.

”Let us continue to support and invest in sports development, especially at the grassroots level.“

The two-day tournament organised by Samarahan Division Tang Soo Do Association attracted 232 students from primary schools and secondary schools in Kuching, Miri, Sibu and Sarikei.

Also present were Youth and Sports Department Samarahan officer Mark Leroy  Anthony and organising chairman David Linang Janting of Samarahan Tang Soo Do Association.
