Several highlighted officials undertook the 3.5 km walk of the circuit, led by ID president Pun Weng Kun. The event was held to promote ID’s belief in “sports for all” and to actively demonstrate the beneficial effects of playing sport, including on a social level. The walk started around 9.30 a.m. following the inauguration of the event and lasted for about one hour and 15 minutes. ID also provided on-site at the Barbecue Park of the Hac Sa Reservoir several booths, offering physical assessments, information on sports activities and exhibitions.
