Kota Kinabalu: The Sunset Beach Party to welcome dragon boat race participants at Likas Bay on May 16 is a prelude to the 10th Sabah FCAS International Dragon Boat Race 2025 which kicks off on May 17.
It is being organised by the Federation of Chinese Associations Sabah (FCAS) headed by Tan Sri T.C. Goh.
Minister of Tourism, Culture and Environment Datuk Seri Christina Liew has been invited to grace the beach gathering. She hopes this year’s dragon boat race, which is divided into 11 categories, will attract more international teams compared to last year’s participation.
