Annuar Musa Harap Anggota Gabungan FAM Berani Tawar Diri Rebut Jawatan Presiden

KUALA LUMPUR, 23 Feb (Bernama) -- Penasihat Persatuan Bola Sepak Kelantan (KAFA) Tan Sri Annuar Musa berharap terdapat keberanian daripada mana-mana anggota gabungan Persatuan Bola Sepak Malaysia (FAM) untuk menawarkan diri merebut jawatan presiden pada kongres tahunan FAM 25 Mei ini.

Beliau berkata jawatan presiden FAM boleh dicabar mana-mana anggota gabungan berdasarkan statut sedia ada, namun ia tidak berlaku kerana mendakwa segelintir mereka bimbang mendapat kritikan sekiranya gagal melaksanakan tugas yang diamanahkan.

"Saya fikir untuk kali ini, saya harap akan ada keberanian daripada mana-mana anggota gabungan. Tidak memadai dengan sekadar mengeluh sahaja, kalau ada yang berkemampuan mereka harus dicalonkan.

"Bola sepak Malaysia perlukan satu lonjakan yang besar. Masa sudah sampai, bercakap pun sudah lama dan macam-macam sudah kita lalui namun kalau sampai masa pemilihan, kita kembali kepada cara lama, maka tidak akan ada perubahan," katanya.

Annuar berkata demikian sebagai mengulas kenyataan Setiausaha Agung FAM Datuk Hamidin Mohd Amin baru-baru ini, yang dilaporkan sebagai berkata bahawa mereka bersikap terbuka dalam soal pencalonan jawatan presiden FAM.

Beliau sebelum itu ditemui pemberita selepas majlis pelancaran Fiesta Kelantan 2014 dan pengenalan jersi AFC pasukan yang disempurnakan Menteri Kebudayaan dan Pelancongan Datuk Seri Mohamed Nazri Aziz di ruang legar Bangunan Mara, di sini, hari ini.

Annuar, yang merupakan bekas Timbalan Presiden FAM, berkata Sultan Ahmad Shah yang masih menyandang jawatan Presiden wajar memberikan laluan kepada individu lain yang berkebolehan bagi memastikan bola sepak negara dapat melangkah ke hadapan.

"Bagi saya, terlalu banyak sumbangan yang diberikan oleh baginda namun bola sepak ini terlalu 'demanding', Tuanku Presiden sendiri bersedia membuka laluan kepada calon-calon baharu.

"Baginda sudah lakukan apa yang termampu untuk bola sepak Malaysia tetapi kita tidak boleh bergantung kepada masa lepas," katanya.

Selain jawatan presiden, Kongres FAM pada 25 Mei ini turut mempertandingkan kesemua jawatan tertinggi serta 10 kerusi exco termasuk dua jawatan baharu untuk calon wanita bagi penggal 2014-2018.

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 ...
