NAJIB (berdiri, tiga dari kiri) meluangkan waktu menyaksikan sesi latihan skuad Harimau Malaya di Wisma FAM, Kelana Jaya petang semalam.


ā€œBILA kita jatuh, kita bangun semula. Bila kita berjaya, kita lipatgandakan segala usaha,ā€
Demikian amanat Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak kepada skuad Harimau Malaya ketika ā€˜turun padangā€™ menyaksikan sesi latihan di Wisma Persatuan Bola Sepak Malaysia (FAM) di Kelana Jaya, petang semalam.

Najib meluangkan masa bersama skuad kendalian Datuk K. Rajagobal itu untuk memberikan kata-kata pembakar semangat kepada pemain dalam misi mempertahankan kejuaraan pada kejohanan bola sepak Piala AFF Suzuki 2012.

Najib yang turut ditemani Menteri Belia dan Sukan, Datuk Seri Ahmad Shabery Cheek berkata, beliau tetap menaruh keyakinan kepada skuad negara selaku juara bertahan, sekali gus berharap para pemain akan bangkit pada aksi Piala AFF Suzuki yang bakal membukai tirai, Sabtu ini.

Jelasnya, beliau juga berharap barisan pemain negara akan berjuang habis-habisan dan memperbaiki persembahan hambar dalam beberapa siri perlawanan persahabatan antarabangsa baru-baru ini.
ā€œBagi saya, Perdana Menteri dan pemain bola sepak memiliki satu persamaan.

ā€œIni kerana apabila kita berjaya, kita akan disanjung namun sekiranya kita gagal, kita akan dikritik hebat.
ā€œMenyarungkan jersi Harimau Malaya adalah satu penghormatan (buat pemain-pemain). Mereka adalah insan terpilih untuk membawa imej negara di persada antarabangsa.

ā€œSaya masih percaya dengan jurulatih dan pemain-pemain negara dalam usaha mempertahankan trofi Piala AFF Suzuki dan kita masih memiliki peluang.

ā€œKita perlu melupakan kekalahan kepada Vietnam (0-1), Thailand (0-2) serta persembahan kurang memberangsang ketika menentang Hong Kong dan Bangladesh yang mana kita sekadar seri 1-1,ā€ katanya.

Tambah Najib, beliau selaku wakil kerajaan akan sentiasa memberikan sokongan penuh kepada Harimau Malaya selain bakal mengumumkan ganjaran kepada barisan pemain sekiranya mereka berjaya mempertahankan kejuaraan itu.

ā€œSaya percaya, seluruh rakyat akan memberikan sokongan padu kepada Harimau Malaya. Walaupun saya tahu pemain-pemain bola sepak memiliki pendapatan lumayan tetapi kerajaan akan bagi sesuatu nanti,ā€ ujarnya.

Sementara itu, Safiq Rahim selaku kapten Harimau Malaya mengakui terharu dengan kunjungan pemimpin No. 1 negara itu dan berazam untuk mempamerkan aksi cemerlang demi negara.
ā€œSaya berjanji kami akan berjuang dengan sepenuh jiwa raga kami dalam usaha mempertahankan trofi yang diraih dua tahun lalu demi negara,ā€ katanya.

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...
