Malaysia Yakin Raih Enam Lagi Pingat Emas Di ISG Palembang


PALEMBANG, 26 Sept (Bernama) -- Kejayaan kontinjen negara meraih lima pingat emas pada hari keempat Temasya Sukan Perpaduan Islam Ketiga memberi keyakinan kepada Majlis Sukan Negara (MSN) untuk menambah sasaran sekurang-kurangnya enam lagi pingat emas untuk Malaysia.

Malaysia kini mengumpul lima pingat emas, tiga pingat perak dan tujuh pingat gangsa di temasya sukan yang disertai 46 buah negara Islam itu.

Ketua Pengarah MSN Datuk Seri Zolkples Embong berkata sandaran pingat emas diletakkan pada acara renang dan badminton yang masih berlangsung di Kompleks Sukan Jakabaring Khamis.

"Kami di MSN yakin mampu menambah sekurang-kurangnya enam lagi pingat emas sebelum ISG 2013 melabuh tirai pada 1 Okt dan atlet daripada acara sukan lain masih mempunyai masa untuk turut menyumbang pingat kepada negara," katanya kepada Bernama hari ini.

Zolkples berkata kejayaan negara setakat ini amat membanggakan MSN dan ia diluar jangkaan awal.

Beliau berkata dua faktor utama kepada kejayaan itu ialah semangat bersungguh yang ditunjukkan oleh atlet negara tidak kira sama ada atlet elit mahupun atlet pelapis.

Faktor kedua ialah dalam beberapa acara sukan, tahap pertandingannya agak rendah contohnya badminton, MSN kita tidak menyangka Indonesia turut menurunkan atlet pelapis.

"Begitu juga bagi sukan renang, Koh Chai Lin berjaya meraih pingat emas menerusi acara 400 meter medley wanita yang merupakan bukan acara kegemarannya dan begitu juga dengan Yap See Tuan yang meraih pingat emas menerusi acara 200 meter kuak dada lelaki," katanya.

Zolkples berkata dengan catatan masa itu belum tentu mereka (atlet) dapat mengesahkan pingat emas di Sukan SEA Myanmar pada Disember nanti namun penyertaan di ISG 2013 merupakan medan pendedahan terbaik untuk atlet pelapis yang baru pertama kali menyertai kejohanan peringkat dunia.

"Atlet pelapis dilihat ramai yang menyerlah di Palembang antaranya Nauraj Singh (pingat gangsa lompat bergalah), Lim Chee Wei (pingat emas karate acara kata individu lelaki) dan beberapa atlet karate dan badminton," katanya.

Pada edisi pertama di Arab Saudi tahun 2005, Malaysia menduduki tempat ketujuh daripada 57 buah negara anggota Pertubuhan Kerjasama Islam (OIC) setelah berjaya meraih lima pingat emas, lima pingat perak dan enam pingat gangsa.

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...

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...

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.
