'Tidak timbul soal berat sebelah'

TIADA dilema mahupun kontroversi sebenarnya berhubung pelantikan Datuk Hamidin Mohd. Amin (gambar) sebagai Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Pertandingan Tempatan (JKPT) Persatuan Bola Sepak Malaysia (FAM) yang berkuat kuasa kelmarin.

Hamidin, 45, yang merupakan Setiausaha Agung Persatuan Bola Sepak Selangor (FAS) sejak tahun 1998, memenangi kerusi Naib Presiden FAM pada kongres yang berlangsung 31 Julai lalu.
Ekoran popularitinya yang lebih menonjol berbanding ketua sekretariat persatuan bola sepak (FA) negeri lain, Hamidin dikatakan akan bersikap 'bias' atau berat sebelah kepada Selangor apabila memegang jawatan Pengerusi JKPT itu.

Namun Hamidin berkata, ia bukan suatu masalah besar kerana setiap individu dalam barisan Jawatankuasa Eksekutif FAM 2010-2014 telah memahami tugas dan peranan masing-masing dalam menggerakkan badan induk bola sepak negara itu.

"Majoriti ahli jawatankuasa eksekutif semuanya mempunyai jawatan penting dalam FA negeri masing-masing. Semuanya datang dari satu keluarga bola sepak.

"Dalam mesyuarat pertama semalam (kelmarin), semua ahli sudah jelas bahawa mereka tidak boleh 'bias' kepada negeri masing-masing dalam membuat keputusan.

"Bagi saya, apa yang lebih penting, seseorang individu itu ikhlas dalam menjalankan tugas yang telah diberi serta mampu memberi komitmen seratus peratus," katanya ketika dihubungi Kosmo! semalam.



Apa yang dinyatakan Hamidin itu ada benarnya kerana Pengerusi JKPT sebelum ini, Datuk Che Mat Jusoh juga merupakan Presiden Persatuan Bola Sepak Negeri Terengganu (PBSNT) tetapi masih dapat menjalankan tugas tersebut dengan adil dan telus.

Jika bukan Hamidin pun yang dilantik memegang jawatan itu kelmarin dan seandainya Tan Sri Annuar Musa dipilih sekalipun, Timbalan Presiden FAM itu juga akan dianggap 'bias' kerana merupakan Presiden Persatuan Bola Sepak Kelantan (KAFA).

Begitu juga jika Datuk Abdullah Hishan Mohd. Hashim (Timbalan Presiden - Perak), Datuk Astaman Abdul Aziz (Timbalan Presiden - Kuala Lumpur), Mejar Rani Abdul Rahim (Setiausaha Kehormat - ATM) atau Dr. Hamdan Mohamed Khalib (Setiausaha Kehormat - Kedah) dilantik sebagai Pengerusi JKPT.

Dalam pada itu, Hamidin turut berharap Abdullah Hishan yang menggantikannya sebagai Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Futsal & Bola Sepak Pantai FAM dapat meneruskan kecemerlangan keduadua sukan baru tersebut.

"Saya yakin dan berharap beliau dapat meneruskan kesinambungan apa yang telah saya buat sepanjang memegang jawatan pengerusi dan pengurus pasukan futsal sejak 2007.

"Saya sudah lama dengan jawatankuasa futsal bermula sebagai ahli dari 2002 hingga 2004 sebelum menjadi timbalan pengerusi dari 2005 hingga 2007. Rasa sedih itu tetap ada," jelas Hamidin.

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...
