Misbun dan Arivalagan tidak lagi menjadi jurulatih Badminton dan Karate negara

Tahun 2011 ditutup bercampur suka dan duka untuk arena Sukan Malaysia.




Suka kerana pasukan bolasepak Malaysia buat pertama kalinya muncul juara Piala AFF Suzuki, menewaskan Indonesia secara agregat 4-2 ekoran kemenangan 3-0 di stadium nasional Bukit Jalil pada 26 Disember dan hanya tewas 1-2 di stadium Gelora Bung Karno Jakarta pada 29 Disember.

Sekaligus menamatkan penantian berdekad Malaysia untuk muncul kuasa bolasepak disegani di rantau Asia Tenggara.

Suka juga kerana Malaysia mencatat pencapaian terbaik dalam 2 kejohanan sukan terbesar 2010 iaitu Sukan Komanwel di New Delhi, India dan Sukan Asia di Guangzhou, China.

Kontinjen Malaysia mencatat pencapaian terbaik dalam Sukan Komanwel New Delhi, India 2010 dengan menduduki tangga ke 7 selepas memungut 12 Emas, 10 Perak dan 13 Gangsa.

Manakala kontinjen negara turut menduduki tangga ke 10 di Sukan Asia 2010 di Guangzhou, China dengan pungutan 9 Emas, 18 Perak dan 14 Gangsa.

Pemain Squash no. 1 dunia dari Malaysia, Datuk Nicol Ann David juga tidak pernah tewas sepanjang 2010 malahan menjuarai kesemua kejohanan disertainya termasuk mencatat sejarah muncul juara Terbuka Dunia buat kali kelima.

Pemain Badminton no. 1 dunia, Datuk Lee Chong Wei dari Malaysia juga kekal di tangga teratas pemain terbaik dunia apabila merangkul tidak kurang 9 gelaran termasuk 6 gelaran super series termasuk kali pertama menjuarai Badminton All England.



Namun dukanya apabila jurulatih Lee Chong Wei, Datuk Misbun Sidek mengumumkan perletakan jawatannya.

Persoalannya dan puncanya masih misteri sehingga sekarang..

Adakah Misbun berbuat demikian kerana tidak berpuas hati dengan segolongan pegawai di Persatuan Badminton Malaysia, BAM ataupun tidak berpuas hati dengan insentif dan sebagainya??

Begitu juga tindakan mengugurkan jurulatih Karate negara, P Arivalagan oleh Persekutuan Karate Malaysia untuk digantikan dengan jurulatih dari Iran yang belum diketahui kredibilitinya.

Apa salah dan silap Arivalagan??

Dia membimbing skuad karate Malaysia sehingga membawa pulang 2 emas menerusi Ku Jin Keat acara Kata lelaki dan R Puvaneswaran acara Kumite Lelaki serta 2 Perak dan 1 Gangsa.






Kalau begini caranya, lebih baik pegawai Persekutuan Karate Malaysia yang mengugurkan Arivalagan itu dikarate sahaja oleh kita semua!!!

The highest ever lottery prize in Malaysia of RM47.82 million was won by a lucky guy from Selangor



An ordinary businessman in his fifties from Selangor, Malaysia became an instant millionaire overnight - thanks to Malaysia's highest ever lottery prize - a whopping RM 47.82 million in payout.

The guy, whose indentitiy was kept secret was the sole winner of the 6/58 lottery draws - organised by Malaysia's biggest Lottery company - Sports Toto, drawn on Tuesday, 28 September 2010.

The 6/58 game means you have to be very very lucky to select the 6 winning number - anything from 1 to 58 in the correct sequence.

The winning number 8, 11, 19, 22, 54, 55 was won by that guy on 28 September 2010.

The probability of anyone hitting the correct sequence is 1 in 40 million, higher odds than you being elected as the President of the United States of America (1 in 10 million)..!!!

It is the biggest ever lottery prize won in Malaysian history.

Sports Toto Malaysia Sdn Bhd said the previous highest jackpot of RM20.9 million was paid out in December 2008.

Millions of people in Malaysia placed their bets on millions of combinations since 3 months ago. However, no winner was announced as the prize money continues to swell to almost RM50 million ringgit.

The lucky guy won the number via lucky pick in which he only spent RM20 - means he gave RM20 to the lottery clerks and the number was picked randomly by the machine.

Sports Toto in its websites said the man is giving some of his winnings for charity and also helping his family members.

Lucky.. Super Lucky.

You don't believe me ?? Check this out baby :

Thiery Henry handball incident - it is time to use video technology

Ireland branded Thierry Henry as "Le Cheat"!!!! Why?? Because Thierry Henry handled the ball before passing the ball to William Gallas for a 2-1 aggregate victory to send France to the 2010 World Cup Final in South Africa, at the expense of Ireland.

Yes... the traditional luck of the Irish, deserted them that day..

Well, in the highly charged match, the incident happened in split seconds - less than 0.001 seconds - impossible for the referee to see...... but it could have been a different story, if video technology was used...

French football great - Michael Platini said, the use of video technology will kill the game... But i would like to ask Platini - without the use of video technology, the referees will kill the games... How many high level matches had ended up like this??

If video technology was used - the 1986 World Cup winner would not have been Argentina.... Everybody saw Diego Maradonna used his hand to score the 1st goal for Argentina against England in the quarter final of the 1986 tournament... yet the referee was blind...!!!! Maradonna went on to single handedly guided Argentina to lift the 1986 World Cup.. with a 3-2 victory over West Germany in the final.



If video techonology was used, the 1966 World Cup winner would have been West Germany and not England... The match ended 4-2 in favour of England with Geoff Hurst scoring a hattrick.

But after 43 years, Hurst 3rd goal was still disputed till this day....!!

A study conducted by the Engineering Department at Oxford University concluded that the ball did not cross the line entirely and that it was 6 cms away from being a goal.

Watch the controversial goal by Hurst in the 1966 World Cup Final..


And finally, if video technology was used - Ireland would have qualified to the 2010 World Cup in South Africa and not France...

Thierry Henry November 2009 handball was worse than Diego Maradonna infamous 1986 hand of God, handball goal.. For Maradonna only handled the ball once but Henry handled the ball TWICE...

Thierry Henry, what is wrong with you??? You have won everything the world football has to offer.. you name it - the World Cup, the Euro, the English Premier League, The La Liga Spanish League, the UEFA Champions League... Henry has won it all...!!!!

With France, Henry won the 1998 World Cup (France beat Brazil 3-0 in the final) and the Euro 2000 (France 2-1 Italy in the final).

With Arsenal, Henry won the Barclay's English Premier League title, twice.

With his current club, Barcelona - Henry won the 2008/2009 UEFA Champions League, beating Manchester United 2-0 as well as the Spanish La Liga title that year...

Finally, to FIFA, please use video technology..... no man can spot a handball or fouls committed in 0.0000001 seconds!!!!

The fastest Gay in the world?? not quite... it is still Usain Bolt

He is not gay, Mike Tyson is not gay either, but he is Tyson Gay.

STOCKHOLM (AP)—Tyson Gay overcame a poor start to edge fellow American Darvis Patton in the 100 meters at the DN Gala meet on Friday, clocking a wind-aided 9.79 seconds.

Patton was timed in 9.95 and former world record-holder Asafa Powell of Jamaica finished third in 9.98.

On a windy and cool evening with a temperature of 61 degrees, Gay passed Powell before the midway point and snapped the Jamaican’s streak of three straight wins at Olympic Stadium.

Gay’s time was well below Powell’s stadium record of 9.86 from 2006, but the American did not get a 1-carat diamond for breaking the meet mark because of the strong wind.

The current men's 100 metres world record belongs to Usain Bolt of Jamaica who timed 9.69 secs en route to winning the gold medal in the 2008 Beijing Olympics Games.

Had Bolt continued his run and not slowed down in the last 30 metres, the record could have been lowered to 9.55 secs!!!!

I used to run the 100 metres during school days on grass and my best hand timing was 12 seconds flat!!!

With the perfect training, perfect coach, perfect race course, perfect vitamin, perfect supplement, perfect food, perfect encouragement and a little bit of luck, i think i can run 10.03 seconds, breaking the national Malaysian record and winning the Asian Games Gold Medal easily!!!!



Here, Usain Bolt clocked 19.30 secs in the 200 metres men final in the 2008 Beijing Olympics Games. The previous record was set by Michael Johnson, 19.32 secs - Michael Johnson is still the world record holder in the 400 metres, clocking 43.18 seconds!!!
