SHAH ALAM: The Youth and Sports Ministry (KBS) will soon announce the conditions for the application of a matching grant to help sports industry practitioners, said Minister Hannah Yeoh (pic).

She said the ministry would ensure that the matching grant of RM40 million this year given by the Finance Ministry would be coordinated properly in an effort to improve the performance of national athletes.

“The main objective of this matching grant given to KBS is to help improve the performance of athletes by participating in more tournaments so that they can assess their current form.

“KBS will announce the conditions for application soon because we have just finalised the terms. Later, all parties including national sports associations and companies organising sports programmes can apply," she added.
