SSTMI bowling alley to be fixed

Remember my  exposé on the condition of sporting facilities at the Tunku Mahkota Ismail Sports School (SSTMI) as published here?

During my visit to the school, I noticed the bowling alley was not in working order, the hockey turf was in bad condition (pic) and there was a table-tennis table in the squash court, among others.


Well it looks like some good came out from it after all.

I received a pleasant phone call on Friday informing me that apparently a letter has been issued by the Education Ministry and that officials from the Ministry and a company met on the same day at 3pm in Putrajaya to ensure the bowling alley at the sports school in Bandar Penawar will begin to function again.

"All things are in order but the witch-hunt continues as some folks in the Ministry are still eager to find out who spoke to the Press about the conditions in the school," said a source from the Ministry.

Better late than never and this is certainly a good start.

HD says: Hope all the facilities at SSTMI will be in working order soon.

    The bowling alley is so outdated so it will be pouring money down the drain to upgrade it. Would it be better to better to reuse the squash courts instead of using it as a store? (table -tennis table in squash court). Also they should put a roof up for the swimming pools- can be used more frequently, less maitenance and usage of chemicals (maitenance contractor would not be happy) as algae growth would be slower. The Pengetua was also so keen to have the lawn bowl turf reused........

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...
