Khairy Teliti Cadangan Pelumba Lebuh Raya Sebelum Ambil Tindakan Susulan

KUALA LUMPUR, 21 Jan (Bernama) -- Menteri Belia dan Sukan Khairy Jamaluddin Abu Bakar berkata beliau akan meneliti segala masalah serta cadangan yang diluahkan oleh barisan pelumba berbasikal lebuh raya negara sebelum dapat mengambil tindakan susulan.

Khairy berkata beliau tidak boleh sewenang-wenangnya membuat keputusan segera hasil daripada perjumpaan tertutup bersama pelumba berkenaan, hari ini tanpa mendapatkan pandangan daripada beberapa pihak yang lain termasuk Persatuan Kebangsaan Berbasikal Malaysia (PKBM).

"Hasil perjumpaan yang berlangsung pagi tadi, ada sebahagian daripada mereka yang merupakan pelumba profesional telah meluahkan pandangan serta cadangan bagaimana untuk meningkatkan (kualiti) program acara lebuh raya negara.

"Jadi, saya maklumkan kepada mereka bahawa perkara berkenaan akan dibincangkan bersama wakil PKBM dan pelumba lebuh raya negara pada satu forum khas (nanti)," katanya.

Khairy berkata demikian kepada pemberita selepas menyaksikan majlis penyerahan penajaan untuk Kejohanan Ragbi Premier Tujuh Sebelah Kolej Melayu Kuala Kangsar (MCKK), di sini, Selasa.

Khairy bagaimanapun berkata, beliau perlu memberikan tumpuan terlebih dahulu kepada audit akaun PKBM yang menerima peruntukan tahunan sebanyak RM1.5 juta daripada pihak kementerian memandangkan ia merupakan antara Penunjuk Prestasi Utama (KPI) yang ditetapkan sebelum ini.

"KPI ini penting kerana duit berkenaan (RM1.5 juta) datangnya daripada pihak kementerian.

"Sekiranya kita gagal mencapai KPI tersebut, maka saya tidak boleh membuat keputusan sama ada kita akan teruskan program lebuh raya dengan PKBM atau bersama Majlis Sukan Negara (selepas ini)," katanya.

Dalam pada itu, Khairy melahirkan keyakinan dengan kemampuan pengendali baharu skuad hoki senior kebangsaan, Muhammad Dharma Raj Abdullah untuk melakar lebih banyak kejayaan selepas berjaya membawa skuad remaja negara meraih tempat keempat pada Kejohanan Dunia di India, tahun lepas.

Dharma Raj, yang merupakan penolong jurulatih kepada Paul Revington, dilantik ke jawatan berkenaan selepas pengendali kelahiran Afrika Selatan itu meletak jawatan.

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...

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 ...
