AEROBICS enthusiasts should not miss the opportunity to take part in mass aerobics session at the Esplanade in Penang on July 1.

Penang Municipal Council (MPPP) assistant director Fazillah Hussain said the aerobics workout was one of the activities to promote the Tourism Promotion Organisation (TPO) Forum for Asia Pacific.

The fifth biannual forum, which is hosted by MPPP, is scheduled to be held from Sept 18 to Sept 20 at the Shangri-Las Rasa Sayang Resort & Spa in Batu Ferringhi.

A total of 68 city mayors and 32 industry players are expected to attend the forum, which is aimed at creating an inter-city network besides boosting the tourism industry in all member cities in the Asia Pacific region.

Fazillah said there would be a paramotor show during the aerobics workout with paramotor pilots flying at some 0.3m above the ground and carrying small TPO banners.

Ten paramotor pilots will take off from Esplanade for a 45-minute spin around the island in the bid to promote the event, she told a press conference.

She added that 2,000 free TPO T-shirts would be given away to the participants.

The aerobics session is jointly organised by the Penang Physical Fitness Association.

Registration is free. The deadline is on June 24. Those interested to join the event can call Che Mansor at 012-4323324 or Jeorge Subramaniam at 016-4112205.
