KFC on board with martial arts championship

As the Korean International Martial Arts Guyana (KIMAG) gears up to host its third annual Guyana South America Undiscovered Championship, KIMAG Chairman Roland Eudoxie has specified a number of plans that will be featured at the martial arts extravaganza, slated for July 20-22.
The event, which will be held at the National Gymnasium on Mandela Avenue, will not only feature a Health and Business Expo but also showcase a Tang Soo Do Seminar facilitated by KJN Eric Kovaleski and Tae Bo Fitness Training under the supervision of KJN Billy Blanks.
It is the hope of KIMAG that these efforts will go a long way towards strengthening and creating a top-notch developmental programme for the martial arts arena. KIMAG anticipates that the Guyana South America Undiscovered Martial Arts Championship will serve as a hub for the popularisation of martial arts as it was working closely with the Government of Guyana, Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) and the Private Sector to create a lasting strong and effective partnership.
As part of that mandate, KFC Guyana has come on board as a major sponsor of the three-day event, which will be held under the theme “Bridging Boundaries, Uniting and Discovering Potentials”.
In a small presentation ceremony at the company’s head office, KIMAG Chairman Eudoxie stated that KFC was willing from the start to offer support to this initiative. As such, Korean International would like to thank KFC for coming on board and the Chairman noted that the sponsorship would definitely add to the success of the event in July.
KFC Guyana Marketing Manager Livasti Bhooplall has indicated that the fast food giant was excited to be associated with youth development.
“Martial arts and sports in particular are avenues that instil discipline in our youths and we wish Korean International the very best with the competition,” she said.
In addition to the monetary support of this initiative, KFC will also offer five youths the opportunity to benefit from a martial arts training programme, in Guyana.
