Krisis dalaman jejas pemilihan

KRISIS dalaman Persatuan Silat Kebangsaan Malaysia (Pesaka) menyebabkan persatuan itu masih belum mempunyai senarai atlet untuk dihantar bertanding pada Sukan SEA Laos penghujung tahun ini.

Penolong Setiausaha Agung Pesaka, Bahrain Ibrahim berkata, mengikut amalan sebelum sesuatu kejohanan, pihak persatuan mempunyai senarai kasar atlet melalui pertandingan-pertandingan dalam negara sebelum disenarai pendek untuk ke sesuatu kejohanan.

"Tapi sebenarnya kita sudah dua tahun tak ada pemilihan sistematik, kita pun susah nak ambil tahu apa yang dibuat oleh gabungan-gabungan di peringkat negeri.

"Dua tahun ini saya anggap malapetaka, banyak perancangan kita tergendala," katanya semalam.

Katanya, perpecahan yang berlaku dalam Pesaka adalah akibat krisis perebutan kuasa dalam persatuan terbabit, yang juga menyebabkan persatuan peringkat negeri tidak aktif kerana tidak ada penyelarasan yang berkesan dengan pentadbiran Pesaka di peringkat pusat.

"Jalan terbaik untuk selesaikan masalah kami adalah melalui keputusan Pejabat Pesuruhjaya Sukan," katanya.

Katanya, permasalahan persatuan terbabit telah dibawa kepada Pesuruhjaya Sukan, Datuk Nik Mahmud Nik Yusoff tetapi tiada langkah berkesan yang diambil setakat ini.

Bagaimanapun, katanya, langkah terakhir yang boleh diambil oleh Pesaka ialah menggunakan atlet daripada Kem Pembangunan Silat di Kuantan yang rata-rata dibarisi oleh atlet pelapis. - Bernama

Ex-coach's jail sentence cut to a year

PUTRAJAYA: The Court of Appeal yesterday sentenced former athletics coach C. Ramanathan to 12 months' jail for molesting two junior athletes 19 years ago. A three-man bench led by Datuk Mohd Hishamudin Mohd Yunus unanimously dismissed Ramanathan's appeal against conviction, but varied the jail sentence of four years to a year, which was to run concurrently. Following yesterday's ruling, Ramanathan, 75, a former teacher, walked out a free man as he had served 10 months in Kajang Prison. Convicts get one-third remission for good behaviour while in prison. However, he will lose his pension. Hishamudin, who sat with Datuk Abdul Wahab Patail and Datuk Linton Albert, said the court found no merit to overturn the conviction. "However, in reducing the sentence, we considered Ramanathan's age and the long years the appeal has taken." Deputy public prosecutor Awang Armadajaya Awang Mahmud submitted that then High Court judge Tan Sri Abdull Hamid E...

KUALA TERENGGANU, May 29 (Bernama) -- Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badaw i said the government always gives emphasis on cultivating a strong sporting culture in achieving excellence at the international level. As such, the Prime Minister said, it was important to scout for young talents in sports. "I observe that the Malaysia Games (Sukma) has become one of the important platforms to do so. "In this arena, the potentials and skills of the youngsters can be identified for development so that they can achieve greater success in sports," he said in his message in the souvenir book of the 12th Sukma from May 31 until June 9. Abdullah said he was aware that competition in sports was very keen and challenging but this did not mean that Malaysian athletes were incapable of competing at the international level.

Rajagobal Let Off The Hook

PETALING JAYA, April 24 (Bernama) -- National head coach Datuk K. Rajagobal was let off the hook by the Football Association of Malaysia's (FAM) Disciplinary Committee after finding no evidence that he had violated FAM's Article 88, as claimed. FAM Disciplinary Committee chairman Datuk Taufik Abdul Razak said the committee had decided not to charge Rajagobal after carefully analysing the video of the post-match press conference by the 56-year-old coach. "After listening to the recording of the post-match press conference, we decided to drop the charge against Rajagopal as he did not make such a statement. "Maybe his (Rajagobal) assessment and comments of the match was misconstrued by the media. There was no mention of the FAM policy throughout his comments," said Taufik after emerging from a three-hour Disciplinary Committee meeting at Wisma FAM in Kelana Jaya, here, Wednesday. Rajagobal who does not mince his words when asked to com...
