KOTA KINABALU, Aug 19 (Bernama) -- A total of 35 public, private and media agencies and organisations took part in a shooting event organised by the Fifth Infantry Division (5th Division) at the Lok Kawi Camp pistol range here today.
5th Division Commander Major General Datuk Noorrul Azril Ariffin said the annual event was held to appreciate the ongoing support and collaboration from the division’s strategic partners.
Participating agencies included the Sabah National Security Council (MKN), Kota Kinabalu City Hall (DBKK), Malaysian National News Agency (Bernama), Radio Televisyen Malaysia (RTM) and the Sabah Information Department.
“This platform helps strengthen ties between agencies and organisations in Sabah and recognises those who have supported our operational duties,” he told reporters after the event.
