KUALA LUMPUR - Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh said the ministry is currently in the process of meeting all sports organisers in the country to gauge issues faced by them and to look at ways to boost national sports.

"I am still in the process of meeting with many national sports associations and to hear the issues they face.

"I want to learn a real administrative system—a good one that we can use to help other national sports associations," Yeoh told reporters at the Maybank Championship meet, held today at Kuala Lumpur Golf & Country Club (KLGCC).

The Segambut MP further said that she has had a dialogue with some sports organisers.

"I have had a dialogue, and some have invited me to see their facilities, visit their training, and to iftar together," she added.

To further develop sports in the country, Yeoh added her ministry needs to carry out an inventory list with the help the national sport organisers.
