The organisers of Le Tour de Langkawi (LTdL) 2024 are currently monitoring the situation of the uncertain weather that has hit several areas of the highway cycling tour competition. Organising Committee chairman, Abdul Rashid Yaakub said his side will also take precautionary measures to ensure the smooth running of the prestigious race in Asia. "We do feel the concern and I think everyone is aware of the weather conditions, especially in the West Coast area. Likewise in the coastal area because the wind is very strong and there were occasions when the ferry cannot operate. "However, it may be difficult to change the route, maybe the timing of the competition can be slightly changed if there is a need there," he said when met recently. In the meantime, Abdul Rashid said that if the weather is still uncertain, his team has approximately 10 to nine days to make any preparations or changes. "God willing, we hope that the weather will facilitate us and we can continue this race smoothly. "In any case, we ar e ready for any situation," he said.
