On behalf of the Penang State Government, I would like to welcome 250 participants from all over Malaysia. I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate and thank North Peninsular Malaysia Taekwondo Association for their diligence and hard work in organising this championship.
\n<\/p>\n
Championships such as this are held to allow athletes to benchmark themselves against the best and as a platform for the national organization to identify the best athletes for international competitions. In addition, taekwondo is not only a sport, it is also a martial art, requiring exponents to memorise and recite the Taekwondo oath and understand the tenets of taekwondo. <\/p>\n
Tenets of Taekwondo are : Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverence, Self Control and Indomitable Spirit. The application and understanding of such principles will undoubtedly contribute to a community that will serve the nation better. <\/p>\n
I observe from the delegation and participants here today that you are a multi racial set up. I congratulate ITFM and it\u2019s leaders for the success in creating a more harmonious and diverse platform to develop friendship regardless of race, age and background.<\/p>\n
Happy New Year and enjoy Penang the best street food in the world and our world-class UNESCO World Heritage City of George Town!<\/p>\n
Thank you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
