Mesyuarat agung PSM timbulkan tanda tanya


Datuk Ahmad Ismail


PERSATUAN Sepak Takraw Malaysia (PSM) masih menimbang keputusan sama ada mahu meneruskan atau tidak mesyuarat agung pemilihan badan induk itu bagi penggal 2010 hingga 2013 di Petaling Jaya, Ahad ini.

Presiden PSM, Datuk Ahmad Ismail (gambar) berkata, pihaknya masih belum membuat sebarang keputusan mengenai mesyuarat tersebut selepas ada pihak yang dikatakan cuba mencemar- kan imej PSM.
Katanya, pihak terbabit juga bakal membuat permohonan injuksi di mahkamah untuk menghalang PSM daripada meneruskan mesyuarat itu.

"Saya akan membuat keputusan dalam tempoh terdekat sama ada mahu meneruskan ataupun membatalkan (mesyuarat agung PSM).

"Ini kerana, ada pihak mempertikaikan keputusan PSM untuk menggunakan perlembagaan lama pada mesyuarat agung pemilihan itu," katanya kepada Kosmo! semalam.


Menurut Ahmad, pihak terbabit mendakwa mesyuarat agung yang akan dilangsungkan itu tidak sah kerana PSM menggunakan perlembagaan baru yang belum diluluskan Pesuruhjaya Sukan.

Jelasnya, PSM menggunakan perlembagaan baru untuk menjemput perwakilan tetapi tetap menggunakan perlembagaan lama pada mesyuarat agung pemilihan itu.

Dalam perkembangan lain, Ahmad berkata, beliau yang akan mempertahankan jawatan selaku presiden PSM untuk penggal ketiga berturut- turut tidak bimbang dicabar oleh mana-mana pihak.

Setakat ini, Ahmad menjadi calon tunggal untuk bertanding bagi merebut jawatan tersebut.

Bagaimanapun, ada kemungkinan beliau akan dicabar oleh Presiden Persatuan Sepak Takraw Wilayah Persekutuan, Tan Sri Mohamad Nor Abdul Rahim.

"Saya tidak takut untuk bertanding kerana saya mengamalkan demokrasi. Apa yang saya harapkan ialah pertandingan secara sihat dan jangan ada sesiapa mencemarkan imej PSM," kata Ahmad.

Setiausaha Agung PSM, Datuk Arshad Yahaya pula berkata, persia- pan untuk mesyuarat agung pemilihan itu berjalan lancar.

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...

Govt Always Gives Emphasis To Sporting Culture, Says PM

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. "The fact is that we have all the characteristics required to be excellent. We must inculcate a strong fighting spirit so that we don't easily surrender,...

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...
