Antabax, Malaysia’s number 1 Halal antibacterial
personal care range[1] has
teed off as the proud co-sponsor of the SportsUnite’s Gua Caya Lu Unity Golf 2017, the third edition of this unique
golfing event held at the Templer Park Country Club.
Antabax’s
association with SportsUnite’s Gua Caya Lu began last year when the company was
one of the sponsors of the golf tournament. Since then, its involvement has grown
to a co-sponsorship of the unifying annual golfing event, in line with its
support of active and healthy lifestyles.
SportsUnite is a non-government organisation
registered under the Sports Commissioner of Malaysia with the aim of organising
sporting activities to promote unity, fellowship and racial togetherness among
Malaysians.
As co-sponsor Antabax, the brand contributed more than
RM6,000 in flight fees, product hampers for winners and products for all
attendees.
The third edition of the event drew 140 golfers of different races, to
play with the spirit of fellowship and unity, foremost. The
doubles stableforth points format comprising a pair of amateur golfers from
different races is the first of its kind in Malaysian golf.
The diversity of the golfers supported the tournament theme Gua Caya Lu
which translates to “I trust you...we are one.”
Prizes were presented in pairs. There were no individual prizes and to
promote the spirit of fellowship it was a requirement that both golfers in the
pair be present to receive the lucky draw prize, or it would snowballed to the
next lucky draw.
Mr
Allan Khong, Executive Director of Marketing and Sales, Lam Soon Edible Oils
Sdn Bhd said: “Antabax’s support for the Gua Caya Lu unity golfing event has
become a passion. We are excited to take our sponsorship to the next level. The
event offers a platform for golfers to understand and develop camaraderie as
they pair up with partners of a different race. They get to pit their skills
against their peers in a tournament that aims to inspire and unite players. To
have Antabax associated with this unique and unifying tournament is a source of
pride for us.”
The spirit of fellowship and unity prevailed throughout the event with
strong camaraderie and new friendships formed in keeping with the aims of the
organisers.
Dato’ Dina Rizal, Chairman of SportsUnite Sports Club said, “Everyone
was a winner as they enjoyed a great game of golf in the spirit of fellowship
and unity. We are glad for Antabax’ sponsorship that provided a gift of a
health for those with active lifestyle.”
