Youth and Sports Minister Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman said the hosting of e-Sports will benefit the country because it is the corporate sector that is funding it. — Picture by Mukhriz Hazim
He said the corporate sector would usually approach the government to fund the hosting of e-Sports events themselves as they knew that they could rake in millions of ringgit in profit. “In this sector , we want to make make sure the corporate sector steps forward to provide the funds, just like the hosting of the Dota Major. Who would have thought that fans would be willing to buy expensive tickets to watch it and the organisers make a profit?” he told reporters after officiating the Penang Youth Festival here today.
