Karim tetap cabar KOM

BEKAS Timbalan Presiden Kesatuan Olahraga Malaysia (KOM), Datuk Karim Ibrahim bakal mencabar keputusan penggantungannya selama enam tahun oleh badan olahraga negara itu dengan membawa kes tersebut ke Mahkamah Tinggi.

Karim yang dijatuhi hukuman tersebut oleh jawatankuasa siasatan diketuai bekas Hakim Mahkamah Rayuan, Tan Sri V.C. George pada Oktober tahun lalu dikatakan telah menghantar saman pemula kepada KOM pada 1 April lalu.

Presiden KOM, Datuk Zainal Abidin Ahmad bagaimanapun enggan mengulas lanjut mengenai perkara tersebut, sebaliknya menegaskan bahawa pihaknya telah pun memberi jawapan kepada Karim.
“Karim ada hantar surat tersebut kepada kami tetapi saya tidak boleh beri- tahu mengenai kandungannya kerana ia melibatkan proses mahkamah.

“Namun, apa yang boleh saya beritahu ialah kami telah memberi jawapan kepadanya pada dua atau tiga hari lepas (16 April).

“Sama ada kita mahu lawan atau sele- saikan di luar mahkamah, masih belum ditentukan lagi kerana perkara ini baru masuk dalam proses perbincangan,” jelas Zainal selepas mempengerusikan Mesyuarat Ahli Majlis KOM di Bukit Jalil semalam.

Karim sebelum ini dikatakan tidak puas hati dengan keputusan jawatankuasa siasatan tersebut selepas tidak dibenarkan membuat rayuan terhadap penggantungannya itu.

Bekas ‘orang kuat’ kepada Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim (bekas Presiden KOM) itu dikatakan mahu mencabar keputusan tersebut yang disifatkan tidak adil kerana tidak diberi peluang membela diri.
Beliau yang juga bekas Naib Presiden Persatuan Olahraga Amatur Melaka (POAM), sebelum ini dianggap sebagai pencetus kepada pelbagai kontroversi yang melibatkan atlet negara di bawah kelolaan badan olahraga negara itu.

Ekoran itu, sekumpulan jurulatih dan atlet olahraga negara telah menyerahkan petisyen setebal 23 muka surat yang bertajuk: Laporan Jurulatih dan Atlet Olahraga Kebangsaan kepada Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim pada 13 Februari tahun lalu.

Petisyen yang ditandatangani oleh 42 atlet dan 16 ju- rulatih olahraga negara itu meminta KOM menyingkirkan Karim yang didakwa sebagai dalang utama terhadap segala masalah yang menimpa KOM sebelum ini.

Ia termasuklah isu membabitkan pelari, Mohd. Yunus Lasaleh yang gagal dalam ujian antidoping pada Sukan SEA 2011.

Malaysian junior athletes are just too ‘lembik’

Saya setuju. We are working on more coaches! “ @ManOlimpik : Malaysian junior athletes are just too ‘lembik’ http://t.co/7D7wmHWaNy ” — Khairy Jamaluddin (@Khairykj) June 10, 2014 The benchmark. Can our junior athletes train as hard as Malaysia's world No.1 badminton player, Lee Chong Wei? “IT IS okay lah. The training is not too bad lah. I will try lah … Wah, so hard lah today.” These are some of the common statements I hear from our juniors nowadays. It is not only in badminton. It is the easy-going, laid-back attitude and lack of competitiveness at grassroots level that we have problems producing quality players. I have travelled quite a bit. After ending my decade-long career with the national team, I went to play in the league in Europe. It’s different there. The European athletes know what they want. And they do it with real focus. Even the young ones possess admirable self-control and show a high level of commitment. During my time in the ...

Organising Major Sports Events Can Inspire Sports Culture Among The People - Khairy

PUTRAJAYA, June 5 (Bernama) -- Organising major sports events can help inspire sports culture among the people and ensure a healthy lifestyle said Youth and Sports Minister Khairy Jamaluddin. Khairy said the Tour of Malaysia cycling race organised since 1963, for example, can encourage more people to take the sport in a more competitive way or just for recreation purposes. "A study carried out by a world renown medical journal, The Lancet, revealed that 61 percent of adults in Malaysia do not engage themselves in active sports. "A study by the Health Ministry revealed that only 25 percent of Malaysians exercise," he said in his speech when launching the 2013 Tour of Malaysia (Jelajah Malaysia) at the Youth and Sports Ministry, here, Wednesday. "Cycling, though not as popular here as in countries like Denmark, the activity is becoming popular among the people as can be seen through an increase in sale of bicycles for recreation," he sa...

Sports press clippings on the 24 April 2008

Sports Minister Datuk Ismail Sabri Yaakob (centre) speaks to athletes after giving away the Olympic qualifying incentives in Putrajaya yesterday. — Pic: RAMDZAN MASIAM Thomas Cup Equally Important, Says Ismail PUTRAJAYA, April 23 (Bernama) -- Although Malaysia want badly a badminton gold at the Beijing Olympics in August, winning the Thomas Cup in Jakarta in May is equally important, said Youth and Sports Minister Datuk Ismail Sabri Yaakob. "My ministry deems all events participated by the national badminton squad as important including the Thomas Cup, which Malaysia last won in 1992. "Statements made that the Beijing Olympics takes precedence over other events is not the position of the ministry," he told reporters at his office here today. Ismail said no matter what events Malaysians competed, seeking glory for the nation should be the overriding priority. He said this when asked to comment on remarks by national badminton chief coach Yap Kim Hock on...
