KUALA LUMPUR - Ia ibarat mimpi menjadi nyata buat empat anak muda berusia 21 tahun, Mohd. Hafizuddin Nordin, Amir Helmy Yusof, Ahmad Faizal Basri serta Muhammad Safian Abdullah apabila menerima peluang sekali seumur hidup menyaksikan Sukan Olimpik secara langsung di kota London.

Jika selama ini mereka hanya menonton kejohanan menerusi televisyen, namun kali ini, Telekom Malaysia (TM) Berhad akan membawa empat anak bertuah bertuah ini merasai sendiri suasana temasya sukan terbesar dunia itu selepas mereka muncul pemenang peraduan 'Team Malaysia Be A Super Fan'.
Peraduan tersebut yang dilancarkan pada April 2011 dianjurkan dengan mengambil konsep asas media sosial, iaitu berkongsi. Rangkaian media sosial popular seperti Facebook, Twitter dan Youtube digunakan sebagai platform buat peserta menunjukkan sokongan terhadap atlet Malaysia yang akan bertanding di Olimpik.

Peserta akan berkongsi foto, video, komen serta 'like' dalam ketiga-tiga rangkaian sosial berkenaan. Bagi setiap aktiviti yang diselesaikan, mereka akan diberi markah dan peserta dengan markah tertinggi menerima hadiah utama percutian menonton Sukan Olimpik di London.
Trip sembilan hari, lapan malam itu ditanggung sepenuhnya oleh TM, malah sepanjang di sana semua pemenang bakal menyaksikan tujuh acara temasya, termasuk dua acara yang menjadi prospek pingat Malaysia iaitu badminton dan terjun.

Hafizuddin, Amir, Faizal dan Safian yang akan berlepas pada 28 Julai ini bagaimanapun akan diberi tugas khas sepanjang di London, berkongsi pengalaman mereka menyaksikan Sukan Olimpik bersama 200,000 pengikut laman sosial Facebook Team Malaysia.

"Pada ketika Malaysia akan menghantar kontinjen ke London untuk memburu pingat emas Malaysia, Team Malaysia (pasukan penyokong) pula akan menghantar pemenang peraduan untuk memberi sokongan kepada atlet yang mengambil bahagian dalam pelbagai sukan.

"Mereka berpeluang untuk menonton secara langsung tujuh acara pertandingan, termasuk badminton dan terjun,'' kata Ketua Pegawai Pemasaran TM, Datuk Rozalila Abdul Rahman pada sidang akhbar di Pusat Konvensyen TM di sini, semalam.

Bagi anak muda kelahiran Kajang, Safian, pemilihannya sebagai antara empat pemenang peraduan adalah sesuatu yang tidak pernah dibayangkan. "Saya langsung tidak pernah bermimpi akan pergi ke London untuk menonton Olimpik. Selama ini, saya adalah penyokong kuat (Datuk) Lee Chong Wei tetapi saya hanya tengok perlawanan di televisyen.

"Kali ini saya bukan saja dapat menyokong beliau di stadium secara langsung, malah saya juga akan memberi sokongan kepada semua atlet Malaysia yang lain, ia pengalaman yang sangat mengujakan. Terima kasih TM atas peluang sekali seumur hidup ini," kata Safian.

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...

Badminton: Fans rooting for all-Malaysian semis

Reports: RAJES PAUL KUALA LUMPUR: The home fans will be rooting for an all-Malaysian men’s singles semi-final between Lee Chong Wei and Liew Daren. But Chong Wei is more fancied to advance than Daren in quarter-final matches against Indonesian Simon Santoso and Dane Peter Gade-Christensen respectively at the Putra Stadium in Bukit Jalil today. Yesterday, Chong Wei defeated Vietnamese Nguyen Tien Minh 21-9, 18-21, 21-7 in a second-round match that saw the world number one struggling to adapt to the draught in the stadium in the second game. And Daren continued a fairy tale run in his home Open, blowing away a toothless Hsueh Hsuan-yi of Taiwan 21-14, 21-12. Although Choong Wei had to slog for the win over Tien Minh, the top seed and defending champion felt that he was playing better by the day. “I got off to a good start but found it hard to cope with the draught. I tried to catch up after losing my momentum but that did not happen and I decided to conserve energy for ...

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...
