Sarawak communities host health and fitness programmes

Various community-led health and fitness initiatives were held in Sarawak to promote active lifestyles and social cohesion.

In Kampung Sandong, the Health Concept Carnival 2026 took place at the local town hall and futsal court. Attended by Dato Ir Lo Khere Chiang, the programme focused on health awareness and providing a platform for residents to interact and strengthen community ties through health-related activities.

In Mukah, the SABERKAS Run 2026 drew 290 participants to Kampung Tabo. Organized by the Balingian branch of the United Sarawak Youth Association (SABERKAS), the event featured several categories, including 10km runs for men and women, veteran categories, and a 5km fun walk. Abdul Yakub Arbi, the Balingian state assemblyman, noted that such activities serve as effective tools for bringing the community together in a healthy environment.
