Venues The 2008 Sukma Games used a mix of new and existing venues. Some venues were existing public-sporting facilities, while others were newly constructed venues. Some retrofitting work was done at venues which were more than a decade old. They reverted to public use after the games. At the centrepiece of the activities was the newly built Gong Badak Sports Complex. Incorporating the 50,000-seat Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin Stadium, it hosted most of the Games events. A games village was not built, instead athletes and officials were housed in universities across Terengganu. Besides being physically near to the competition venues, it was hoped that it will add vibe to the host cities and reduce post-games costs in converting a dedicated games village to other uses.http://www.sukma-2008.com.my:80/jadual/jadual_sukan.aspx Schedule https://web.archive.org/web/20080813091113/http://www.sukma-2008.com.my/jadual/jadual_sukan.aspx 13 August 2008 26 February 2021 livehttp://www.sukma-2008.com.my:80/Venue/vPertandingan.aspx Venue https://web.archive.org/web/20080731033142/http://www.sukma-2008.com.my/Venue/vPertandingan.aspx 31 July 2008 26 February 2021 live The 12th Sukma Games had 32 venues for the Games, 18 in Kuala Terengganu, 3 each in Hulu Terengganu and Kemaman and 2 each in Besut, Dungun, Marang and Setiu.

Logo The logo of the 2008 Sukma Games is an image of a 'T' letter, which is the initial of the host state of the Sukma Games, Terengganu. The logo consists of four colors which are black, red, blue and yellow. Black represents Terengganu, the host state of the 2008 Sukma Games, Red represents the fighting spirit of the athletes in achieving victory, Blue represents unity and Terengganu as a coastal state and yellow represents the people involved in the 2008 Sukma Games and Terengganu as a constitutional monarchy state.http://www.sukma-2008.com.my/iSukma/logo.aspx Logo 1 August 2008 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20080801051219/http://www.sukma-2008.com.my/iSukma/logo.aspx Mascot The official mascot of the 2008 Sukma Games is an Ocellaris Clownfish named Si Diman. It is said that the clownfish is a bisexual fish found in the waters of the islands off the coast of Terengganu. The adoption of the clownfish as the games' mascot is to relate its active and aggressive characters to that of the athletes participated at the games. The smile on the mascot's face represents the joy the games bring to the people. The mascot's name Diman is an abbreviation of the honorific host state of the games, Terengganu, Darul Iman which means Abode of Faith.http://www.sukma-2008.com.my:80/iSukma/maskot.aspx Mascot 12 August 2008 https://web.archive.org/web/20080802113329/http://www.sukma-2008.com.my/iSukma/maskot.aspx 2 August 2008 26 February 2021 live Songs The theme song of the games is "Sukma Dua Belas Terengganu 2008" (The 12th Sukma Games Terengganu 2008).http://www.sukma-2008.com.my:80/iSukma/lagu.aspx Theme song https://web.archive.org/web/20080801051212/http://www.sukma-2008.com.my/iSukma/lagu.aspx 1 August 2008 26 February 2021 live The games Participating states 22em Johor (460 athletes) Kedah (484 athletes) Kelantan (285 athletes) Malacca Negeri Sembilan (336 athletes) Pahang (445 athletes) Penang Perak (544 athletes) Perlis (252 athletes) Sabah Sarawak Selangor Terengganu Federal Territory (Malaysia) Federal Territory Brunei (60 athletes) Sports 18em Aquatic Diving m Swimming m Archery m Athletics m Badminton m Bowling m Boxing m Canoeing m Cycling m Equestrian m Fencing m Football m Golf m Gymnastics m Hockey m Judo m Karate m Lawn bowls m Netball m Pencak silat m Petanque m Rugby sevens m Sailing m Sepak takraw m Shooting m Squash m Table tennis m Taekwondo m Tennis m Wushu m Volleyball m Weightlifting m Demonstration sport https://www.thestar.com.my/news/community/2008/06/03/kabaddi-to-make-sukma-debut-as-a-demonstration-sport/ Kabbadi to make Sukma debut as a demonstration sporthttp://ww1.utusan.com.my/utusan/info.asp?y=2008&dt=0710&pub=Utusan_Malaysia&sec=Sukan&pg=su_06.htm make Formula future a Sukma fixed event 26 October 2017 https://web.archive.org/web/20171027024854/http://ww1.utusan.com.my/utusan/info.asp?y=2008&dt=0710&pub=Utusan_Malaysia&sec=Sukan&pg=su_06.htm 27 October 2017 dead Kabaddi m Formula future m No Medal table Official 12th Sukma Games Website http://www.sukma-2008.com.my/result.aspx dead https://web.archive.org/web/20080812221400/http://www.sukma-2008.com.my/result.aspx 12 August 2008 http://www.sukma-2008.com.my:80/berita/bright.aspx Future is bright for sports in Terengganu https://web.archive.org/web/20080813200159/http://www.sukma-2008.com.my/berita/bright.aspx 13 August 2008 26 February 2021 live 2008 Sukma Games medal table TER flagcountry State 61 39 47 yes Terengganu 54 47 51 Selangor 52 52 42 Sarawak 31 29 24 Pahang 29 38 58 Federal Territory (Malaysia) Federal Territory 29 27 39 Perak 29 27 37 Kedah 27 31 47 Penang 27 31 40 Johor 23 22 27 Malacca 21 20 31 Sabah 11 21 35 Negeri Sembilan 8 9 18 Kelantan 4 6 8 Perlis 0 2 0 Brunei Broadcasting Radio Televisyen Malaysia was responsible for live streaming of several events, opening and closing ceremony of the games.
