Youth and Sports Ministry Seeks New Director-General for National Sports Council
The Youth and Sports Ministry has identified several individuals in its search for a suitable person to replace National Sports Council (NSC) director-general Abdul Rashid Yaakub, whose contract ends in April.
Interview Process to Be Held
"We already have some names and, just like for the post of National Sports Institute (NSI) chief executive officer (CEO), we will have an interview process," said a ministry representative at a media conference after launching the National Amateur Golf Series (PNAGS) at the Saujana Golf and Country Club.
Abdul Rashid’s Tenure
Abdul Rashid was appointed in November 2023 to replace Datuk Ahmad Shapawi Ismail, who retired in September of the same year.
NSI CEO Replacement
Meanwhile, the ministry has found the candidate to replace Ahmad Faedzal Md Ramli as the NSI CEO and that an announcement will be made soon. Ahmad Faedzal has helmed the NSI since February 2019 and his tenure as NSI CEO is set to end on February 24.
