“It has been quite a journey and I am very thankful to our stakeholders for having given me the opportunity to serve Malaysian Cricket and to grow the game that we all love. I am mindful that we would not have been able to achieve what we did without the support of The Board, Management & Staff, affiliates and the cricket fraternity in Malaysia. I would like to thank the national players who have been committed and are working hard to push the boundaries. Malaysia has the talent and we should continue to give everyone an opportunity to excel.
The Ministry of Education has been awesome and I record a special shout out to all the teachers and officers, Kudos! I am also grateful to the National Sports Council, Ministry of Youth and Sports and Olympic Council of Malaysia for their support over the years in growing the game.
To our partners who are investing in us, we are appreciative of you taking ownership and being a part of the journey.
Malaysian Cricket Association has strong values and I am sure that Iqbal, as the newly elected President and the incoming Board will continue to evolve positively by taking the game to a higher level.
My best wishes to President Mohammed Iqbal Ali bin Kassim Ali and all the board members.
Mr Mahinda Vallipuram
