KUALA NERUS, Aug 23 (Bernama) -- Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has provided an additional allocation of RM200,000 to support the organising of the two-day RXZ Members 7.0 2025 programme at Gong Badak Motorsports Circuit here, which began yesterday.
The Prime Minister’s senior political secretary, Datuk Seri Shamsul Iskandar Md Akin said the additional allocation is meant to spur organisers to continue holding motorsports activities that have an economic impact and can foster ties in the future.
"The Prime Minister has previously provided RM100,000 in allocation and today I’m representing him to present another RM200,000, for a total of RM300,000.
"The additional aid is thanks to the efforts of the Prime Minister himself with the support of corporations,” he told reporters after officiating the programme here today, adding that programmes like RXZ Members 7.0 serve as platforms gathering local motorsports fans and can bring the industry to a higher level.
He also rejected claims that the government had stopped the organisers from involving the Terengganu government, as the programme was organised independently without involving any state governments or politicians on a yearly basis.
“They (the organisers) asked for the Prime Minister’s consideration for support and he views this programme as a celebration of diversity across the country and is an opportunity to contribute to the people,” he added.
