Budget 2026's allocation for sports saw an increase of more than 150%, with the government putting aside RM580 million. Part of the allocation will be for our elite athletes, as well as our para and deaf sportspeople; some of the funds will be used for preparations ahead of Malaysia hosting the SEA Games and ASEAN Para Games in 2027, while the remainder will be used to improve and refurbish our sporting facilities across the country. Ajitpal Singh, Sports Editor at the New Straits Times, joins us to unpack this year's budget and share his thoughts on whether it's sufficient.
