(Kuching, 27th) — Serian District Council (MDS) Chairman, Dato Peter Minos, praised the 'Serian Eco Run' as an event that promotes health, fosters unity, and strengthens urban-rural connections, calling it a 'triple benefit' initiative.
The event was recently held at Kampung Daha Kisau, located in the interior of Tebedu, Serian. After the event, Minos called on the public to actively participate in similar rural running activities, believing it is a simple yet effective way to enhance cohesion among Sarawak’s multi-ethnic communities.
“I saw participants of all ages and from different ethnic groups freely and enthusiastically interacting with each other, creating a very harmonious atmosphere,” Minos said.
He pointed out that events like the eco run naturally bring people together, as not only did local residents take part, but some foreign participants were attracted as well—fully showcasing the spirit of harmony in Sarawak’s multicultural and multi-religious society.
“I encourage participants to actively join all eco runs held in Serian. This not only benefits health, but also expands social circles, helps to make new friends, and further strengthens unity,” he said.
Minos summarized the three major benefits of such rural running activities:
First, they promote the physical health of participants;
Second, they strengthen unity and social bonds among different ethnic groups;
Third, they reinforce urban-rural interaction and mutual understanding.
He revealed that the event attracted over 500 participants, creating a lively and exciting scene.
Minos also expressed gratitude to the Ministry of Tourism, Creative Industry and Performing Arts (MTCP) for its support of marathons, eco runs, and the 'Bratakthon' (part of the Bratak Mountain Festival).
He noted that the ministry's active involvement is very meaningful, and suggested that every local council should organize similar rural running activities to promote health and harmonious development in society.
