Luanda - The Minister of Youth and Sports, Rui Falcão, said Friday in Luanda that the level of national sport is positive and that actions are underway to improve the coordination of work.

The minister made the statement during a visit to the headquarters of the Angola Press Agency (ANGOP) aimed to strengthen institutional ties between the Sport Ministry and the country's main media outlets.

Rui Falcão highlighted the approval by the Council of Ministers of the National Plan for the Development of Sport 2024-2027 (PLANADESPORTO), based on five fundamental pillars, namely school sport, community sport, competitive sport, sports medicine and infrastructures.

The minister said his department is working to improve production and create the conditions for athletes to achieve high levels of performance and dignify Angola's flag internationally.

He spoke about the need to achieve great performances in order to obtain results in view of the investments made and that this will only be possible if hands are joined together especially the journalists who are the main vectors for publicizing sports activities.

A former karate-do practitioner, Rui Falcão was appointed Minister of Youth and Sport on February 14 of this year. Before that, he was secretary of the Political Bureau for Information and Propaganda of the ruling MPLA party.

He has held leading positions in the sports sector. Between 1985 and 1989 he was head of the Programming and Evaluation Department of the National Directorate of Physical Culture and Recreation, of the Secretary of State for Physical Education and Sport (1989 and 1992) and national director of Culture, Physical Education and Recreation.

From 2008 to 2012, Rui Falcão was also chairman of the general assembly of the Angolan Handball Federation. MC/AMP
