KUALA LUMPUR : Tiger Balm is organising a three-on-three futsal tournament which will see participants compete for the grand prize – an all-expense-paid trip to watch FC Bayern Munich live at Germany's iconic Allianz Arena.
The Legendary Together 3v3 Tournament, launched today at MyTOWN Shopping Centre here, will run until June 15.
Yvonne Teh, country manager of Haw Par Malaysia, Tiger Balm's parent company, said they decided to collaborate with the most successful club in Germany due to their shared values.
'We're united by values of performance, recovery, and unwavering discipline as well as values every athlete, in every sport, can relate to.
'That's why this partnership with FC Bayern Munich is so meaningful,' she said.
Teh said the decision to invite former national footballers Soh Chin Ann, Santokh Singh, Zainal Abidin Hassan, Khairul Fahmi Che Mat and Zaquan Adha Abdul Radzak to the launch was because the company wanted to pay tribute to players who help inspire the younger generation.

Missed chances leave Malaysia in 6th place at Hockey Nations Cup

(Bernama pic) KUALA LUMPUR : Malaysia finished in sixth place in the 2025 FIH Hockey Nations Cup after losing 1-2 to Wales at the National Hockey Stadium in Bukit Jalil today. Both teams displayed a balanced style of play in the classification match for 5th-6th place, before the Speedy Tigers took the lead in the 20th minute through a penalty corner conversion by defender Syed Mohammad Syafiq Syed Cholan. Wales pulled level in the 42nd minute through a penalty corner by Rhys Bradshaw. However, it was Gareth Furlong who proved to be Malaysia's thorn in the side when he scored the winning goal with just 10 minutes remaining in the match. Malaysia's 6th placing is a step up from the team's 7th place in the 2024 tournament held in Gniezno, Poland. In the match for seventh place also held today, Japan defeated South Africa 2-1. National head coach Sarjit Singh said his players' performance was still far from satisfactory, citing a lack of speed and missed chances to kill off the game at the right moment. 'The young players need to learn. We cannot afford to make mistakes when we're leading 1-0 and thus we paid the price. But it's okay, the good thing is every player's commitment on the pitch was good. Only thing we need to improve is our marking in defence,' he told reporters after the match.

Decision to review 13MP not made in haste, says Fahmi
Communications minister Fahmi Fadzil said the prime minister had asked all ministries to study the draft of the 13MP and submit their feedback to the economy ministry. (Bernama pic) KUALA LUMPUR : The government's decision to review the 13th Malaysia Plan (13MP) is not a hasty reaction, but one that has gone through a discussion process over the past two weeks, said communications minister Fahmi Fadzil. Fahmi said the discussions began with a draft presented by the economy ministry's secretary-general to the Cabinet. 'We've actually discussed this. I mentioned (previously) that the prime minister had issued a directive to review the draft presented by the economy ministry's secretary-general. 'Any policy, programme or decision must first be presented at a Cabinet meeting. So, on Friday last week (June 20), the prime minister requested all ministries to study the draft and submit their feedback to the economy ministry,' the government spokesman said at a press conference after launching the Nadi Aspirasi Nasional Bersama Anak Muda programme organised by the community communications department (J-Kom) here today. Following that, he said, a special Cabinet meeting was held last Monday to review the feedback from the ministries. 'During the meeting, it was found that many matters raised by the ministries needed to be considered by the economy ministry in drawing up the 13MP document. 'That was one of the reasons why, at last Wednesday's Cabinet meeting – the latest one – it was decided that finance minister II Amir Hamzah Azizan would take on the duties and functions of the economy minister,' he said. Former economy minister Rafizi Ramli was reported to have questioned the government's move to review the 13MP, calling it a hasty response to social media criticism. This followed chief secretary to the government Shamsul Azri Abu Bakar's announcement yesterday that Amir had been tasked with 'reviewing and revamping' the 13MP, while concurrently performing the duties and functions of the economy minister, effective immediately. The 13MP is scheduled to be tabled in Parliament on July 31.
