KUCHING: Sarawak Petanque Association (Pepsar) welcomes any forms of assistance from corporations to raise the standard of the game in the state.
“We are very glad to receive assistance from Damai Golf and Country Club as they are the first corporate body to come forward to help us,” Pepsar president Othman Mat said during a presentation ceremony at Damai Golf and Country Club here yesterday.
