Antabax, Malaysia’s antibacterial personal care range celebrated the fifth year of sponsorship of SportsUnite’s Gua Caya Lu Golf 2019, a unique golfing event held at the Templer Park Country Club.

SportsUnite’s Gua Caya Lu, based on a famous Malay Language saying of ‘I trust you… we are one’, entered into its fifth year, drawing 120 golfers to compete with the spirit of fellowship and unity, foremost.

This year, SportsUnite introduced the doubles blind draw format, where the organizer did the blind doubles draw immediately after all golfers had teed-off.  Golfer only knew their respective partners upon returning to the clubhouse after the game.  The combined Stableford points of both golfers in each blind pair was used to decide the winners. The doubles Stableford points format comprising a pair of amateur golfers from different races is the first of its kind in Malaysian golf.

According to Francis Ng, Senior General Manager, Household and Personal Care, Lam Soon Edible Oils Sdn Bhd, the event offered a great platform for the brand to promote unity, diversity and most of all active lifestyle.

“Antabax takes pride in promoting a healthy and active lifestyle for Malaysian, through many partnerships and campaigns such as Ministry of Health, Ministry of Education, through interactive and innovative campaigns to promote hygiene to everyone in Malaysia,’ says Ng.

SportsUnite is a non-government organisation registered under the Sports Commissioner of Malaysia with the aim of organising sporting activities to promote unity, fellowship and racial togetherness among Malaysians.  The club celebrates its 12th anniversary this year.  Most of the SportsUnite activities are open to children at no charge.

“We appreciate the continuous support from Antabax.  The partnership allows us to promote unity through sport activities.  The sponsorship provides a gift of health for those who love an active lifestyle,” says Dato’ Dina Rizal, Chairman of SportsUnite Sports Club.
