150 cyclists Pedal for Peace from KK to Labuan

Cyclists from all around took on an epic 200km journey from Kota Kinabalu to Labuan all in the name of peace and hope. Initiated and organized by entrepreneur Nancy Koh and her team, participants started their journey in and visited various memorials and landmarks along the way including the Petagas War Memorial, Starcevich Memorial in Beaufort and World War II Memorial in the Federal Territory of Labuan. Nancy, who also runs Borneo Hidden Treasures, said that she hopes to make this an annual event. “Not only do we hope to spread the message of peace and honour those we lost during the war, but we believe this event also promotes cycling as part of sports tourism in the State,” she said.
Also participating was the event’s ‘Cyclist of Honour’, entrepreneur and philanthropist Datuk Susan Wong.
