Bruneian powerboat racer, Abdul Muhaimin Bin Armaini won three podium finishes in the International Pesta Tatau Powerboat and Rowboat Race held on September 7 and 8 in Bintulu, Sarawak.
Abdul Muhaimin competed in three categories under team ‘Koming’ under the Brunei Darussalam Powerboat Association (PBLBD). Among them was the 40hp Category which he placed first, while he placed second for both the 30hp 3piston and 30hp 2piston Category.
At the end of the tournament, trophies were handed to Abdul Muhaimin by the Administration Officer of Tatau District Winnie Ak Dian.
The two-day event organised by the Tatau District Council, saw more than 200 participants competing in the race spread out across nine categories, which reflects the growing popularity of powerboat racing in the region.
The PBLBD is riding high on the achievement as they set out to Kanowit, Sibu, Sarawak on Thursday for the annual Kanowit Powerboat Race 2024, which is slated to be held from September 20 to 22 at the Kanowit Waterfront. – DANIEL LIM
