To Mafan, Sorry no patience to read your essay. As far as Eddy is concerned he is a legend and great achiever. But no one is perfect, between the time when he dissociated himself from BAM and now, there have been a lot of achievements without him, it is not as if the country cannot survive without him (and that applies to everyone else). In case you dont know Eddy built a hall in Bukit Dumbar in Penang at his own expense and has been training Penang youngsters for decades.
http://viweb.freehosting.net/OonCT.htm Here's a looooooong article abt Eddy you can read in between your essays.
Mafan, here is a question for you: Which types of people would be the ones whose agenda and interest is to institutionalize knowledge or craft? What exactly do these people have to offer in terms of advancement of the human race? Just because books on a shelf rest between bookends, can we then say that bookends are repositories of knowledge? I look forward to your answer.
I am not qualified to teach english. I am just pointing out the mistake some people make regarding the use of "repeat again" including newscasters. As to your question, the answer should be available at http://www.thefreedictionary.com/revert+back
Quality System . When I mentioned "Badminton is 'more of an Art form' (with less of the Science)", I was thinking along these lines; * Art = A high quality of conception or execution, as found in works of beauty; a view often manifested by outward appearances or style of behavior. * Science = A systematic study based on observation, experiment, and measurement. I did not say that Science won't help. In fact I did mention that Science does help (like how to improve strength, to move quicker, better diet, psychology, etc, ...). However, I find that the Art of playing 'Good Badminton' plays the more important part. It is the conscious production movements that makes a good Badminton player. I brought this topic into our discussion because I thought that you were telling us that it's good to have an understanding of why a training method is great or not via writing reports. I was think the other way; Spend less time in writing report, spend more time in training on court. .
Hot from oven... the verdict is out... Misbun decided to stay n guide LCW till OG2012, and on top of that, TXH (Tang Xian Hu, the coach for Lin Dan) has decided to join Misbun to co-guide LCW to fulfill his Olympic GOLD dream, as well as the 22million BOLEH dreams... wake up lah... today is April Fool...
Just read on tv news headlines... BAM offered MS a new contract... still waiting the full news Btw, my vote goes to no reports from coaches, instead the CTC should write 'em down. Period. *sigh* That also need to teach, meh? Common sense la...
MS will be back.. he retracted his resignation by hand to Nadzmi four days ago. Good news finally... ^^
dang... I tot misbun is marrying lcw soon.. lol. Jimbo beat me to it.. lol I see a longest essay writing competion. lol.
So now in the ctc, who are going to go out when misbun comes back? If, quietly pretend nothing happens, then those are truly boleh .....
Yes, take away art from badminton we dont have badminton at all even though science is a big help As for reports from the coaches, i am sure most coaches do provide that but if there are to be so detail why don't the ctc or nsc themselves take turn, visit the training sessions and write all they want. They can even double mafan's post, who cares Rather than sitting like think tank when it's empty tank most of them Btw, if I am not wrong the issue of report writing is not that big It's how they demand them, especially after some players lost. There wasn't any respect given even to misbun Instead of requesting the reports, they demanded for them every time And lastly, never congratulate the players when they win
Misbun Returns To BAM . Yes, just found this news; http://www.bernama.com/bernama/v5/newssport.php?id=575625 Misbun Returns To BAM .
Not yet time? Well Chris, it looks like it's not yet time for Misbun to work for MAS badminton without BAM... If this is true, then should we expect to also read about 3 resignations?
I started this thread because it's found that BAM didn't appreciate Misbun's work . What 3 resignations? I started this thread because it's found that BAM didn't appreciate Misbun's work. Have I said that Misbun didn't appreciate the management style of BAM? .
Cobalt, even the new contract between bam and misbun is still misbun working for Malaysia badminton This is how it ends up 'it's my way or no way'
I kinda hope that Misbun will not return to BAM because I think CTC and management in BAM will make life very difficult for Misbun. But, I guess it can't be help. On the left was how misbun looked like during 2007 Indonesia Open, the right shows Misbun in Asia game 2010. You can see Misbun has age alot during these 3 years and how much pressure this gentleman has suffered while working with BAM over the course or approximately 3 years. I can guarantee it is no fun working under those CTC given how many capable coaches have left the system. Looks like he and chong Wei will be under tremendous pressure again come this World Championship and Olympics. The politicians and CTC are set setting a gold in olympic this time. The best part is those politicians and CTC com don't have to shoulder any responsibility when goal cannot be delivered. All blame goes to coach and player. Hopefully Misbun and Chong Wei can handle the pressure well. And forget about the KPI B***S***., BAM. For a 'badminton powerhouse' nation which doesn't have her own league and so little local tournaments, it's no surprising that the country is not discovering new talents. And they are trying to place the blame on coaches for not producing world class athletes.
