Another coup d'etat?

In March, I had revealed a 'concerted effort' to remove Dr Ramlan Aziz as the chief executive officer of the National Sports Institute as seen here.

I have just learnt of another attempt to remove Ramlan.

Apparently, Ramlan has received a letter - supposedly signed by Sports Ministry deputy secretary general (international and administration) Jamil Salleh (presumably he signed it as he is a "saya yang menurut perintah" government officer) - transferring him to be the CEO of the Anti-Doping Agency of Malaysia or better known as Adamas.

It is believed that Ramlan should have reported as the new Adamas chief on May 1.

It remains unclear who will fill Ramlan's shoes in NSI.

I stand corrected but the position of the NSI CEO can only be appointed and dismissed by the Sports Minister (Ahmad Shabery Cheek) as per the NSI Act 2011.

Also, isn't Adamas a unit within NSI? Wouldn't this be seen as a direct demotion?

The timing is once again questionable as the national athletes are preparing for the London Olympics. 

I sent Ramlan an SMS, but he didn't reply. Perhaps he too is just being a typical "saya yang menurut perintah" government servant.

And I doubt Shabery will want to get his hands dirty - he's got the Himpunan Jutaan Belia coming up to convince the Prime Minister Najib Razak that our youths are all supporting the government of the day as they gear up for the 13th General Election.

So how ah?

    Bro...It's just a case of popolarity vs substance. If you know how to kipas well; everything is okay. Just imagine the best sportsperson in Malysia is fully appreciative od Dr. Ramlan's contribution; and we get a goverment officer who makes a decision like this! We are doomed! Bet you the perperators are already putting plans for a whole scale of lawatan sambil belajar with the 40 million allocation.....

Papa win, papa win.

Those were the words of three-year-old Dasha Ong. National coach Ong Kim Swee has not seen his wife Alodle Donna Derick, Dasha and his seven month old baby Dashie for almost a month. And the words of Dasha just hours prior the kick off between Indonesia and Malaysia in the final certainly motivated Kim Swee. In return, Kim Swee motivated the lads and they won. Read more in today's Mailsport. As expected members of the Press - even those not from the Sports Desk - had numerous questions for Kim Swee. Some wanted Kim Swee to share his experience in Jakarta, others were penning down every word of his when he slammed the organisers for their antics which certainly disturbed him and the boys. But the celebrations must come to an end as Kim Swee and the Olympic lads will now face Syria in the Asia zone Olympic qualifiers tonight (8.45pm). And Kim Swee had this to say: "The players are tired but with the support of the fans, if they come in full force, perhaps that will motivate our...

From 'Mr P' to 'Kemelut Dalaman BAM': Four chapters of 'mesej Whatsapp layang'

Image
Surat layang , or rather ' mesej Whatsapp (or some will pronounce as Wasup) layang '. That was what I received this afternoon from a number that is not registered on my phone. The sender identified him/herself as " ahli yg memerhati tingkah laku BAM " (Badminton Association of Malaysia). The four chapters were titled as:  'Siapa dia Tan Sri BAM "Mr P"' Perletakan Jawatan Presiden BAM 'Siapa Tengku Zafrul' Kemelut Dalaman BAM There were many allegations to which the sender justified as not " fitnah " but " hakikat apa yg berlaku ". The four chapters highlights Mr P's "connection kuat ", goes into why Tengku Zafrul was named as the incoming BAM president, and takes issue with the establishment of 'Yayasan Badminton Nasional' and Akademi Badminton Malaysia. The writer (unsure if the sender is also the writer) also wrote that ' majority in the Council dalam BAM semua tak berani buat laporan sebab tak...
