PEMBERITAHU PERTANYAAN DEWAN RAKYAT
by Ravindran Vengadasamy on Friday, April 20, 2012 at 6:35pm · SOALAN : TUAN YB MANOGARAN (TELOK INTAN) minta MENTERI BELIA DAN SUKAN menyatakan :-
- apakah langkah-langkah yang diambil oleh kementerian unutk mencari bakat-bakat baru atau pun pelapis bagi menggantikan atlit-atlit yang akan bersara dalam sukan karate-do: dan
- berikan sebab mengapa sukan karate-do yang menjadi antara penyumbang pingat utama dalam arena sukan negara masih tidak menerima peruntukkan kewangan, penajaan dan liputan media yang setimpal dengan kejayaan-kejayaan yang diraih setakat ini.
JAWAPAN :
1. Langkah-langkah yang diambil oleh kementerian untuk mencari atlet pelapis dalam sukan karate-do adalah menerusi program-program Talent Scouting dan ujian Penilaian Bakat Spesifik yang dikendalikan oleh Pasukkan Prestasi Tinggi Karate-do (HPT) . Sebagai usha yang berterusan , pencarian bakat / atlet baru dalam sukan ini akan dilaksanakan selepas Kejohanan Remaja dan Kadet Kebangsaan yang akan diadakan di Kuching, Sarawak pada bulan Mei ini. Sebanyak 13 tempat telah diperuntukkan oleh Majlis Sukan Negara kepada atlet baru bagi menjalani latihan di Bukit Jalil. Kuala Lumpur di mana latihan dan persediaan atlet-atlet ini akan di pantau oleh Pasukan Prestasi Tinggi Karate-Do (HPT) Institut Sukan Negara.
2. Selain itu, Majlis Sukan Negara telah mewujudkan program Pelapis di pelbagai peringkat iaitu Pelapis Negeri, Pelapis Serantau dan Pelapis Serantau dan Pelapis Negeri, Pelapis Serantau dan Pelapis Kebangsaan sejak tahun 2007 yang berteraskan pencapaian (performance base) dan sains sukan. Program ini memberi tumpun kepada 19 jenis sukan teras termasuk sukan Karate yang bertindak sebagi “kilang” dalam melahirkan atlet-atlet pelapis berkualiti untuk mewakili negara dan seterusnya berperanan sebagi feeder kepada program latihan atlet elit. sehingga kini sebanyak 30 atlet sukan Karate (10 atlet acara Kata dan 20 atlet acara Kumite ) sedang menjalani latihan di bawah program pelapis Kebangsaan.
3. Untuk makluman , sukan Karate telah berada di dalam Program Majlis Sukan Negara sejak ia pertama kali diprtandingkan di sukan SEA Jakarta 1987. Segala bantuan kewangan selama ini telah pun disalurkan melalui bentuk elaun latihan atlet, bantuan kejurulathian, bantuan peralatan sukan, latihan dalam dan luar negara, penyertaan ke pertandingan dalam dan luar negara, bantuan pegawai teknikal dan pengadilan , bantuan pengelolan kejohanan, perkhidmatan sains dan perubatan sukan serta bantuan pengurusan persatuan sepertimana yang depersetujui di Mesyuarat jawatan kuasa Kerja (JKK) dan dilaksanakan bagi setiap sukan.
4. Sememangnya sukan Karate sentiasa memberikan kejayaan buat negara dan liputan mengenai kejayaan tersebut dipaparkan di media cetak dan media elektronik. pengiktirafan sukan Karate oleh media tempatan dapat dilihat apabila saluran sukan pertama negara iaitu Astro Arena telah melantik Yamini Gopalasamy sebagai Duta astro Arena, mankal bekas atlet iaitu R. Puvaneswaran dilantik sebagi Duta lagenda Astro Arena.
Overwhelming welcome given by the people of Teluk Intan …its an clear signal of tremendous support and thirst for change of Federal Government…….
Affecting ties with Sri Lanka
The motion rejected in the Malaysian Parliament was submitted last week by DAP’s M Manogaran, the MP for Teluk Intan.
Speaker Pandikar Amin Mulia, who made his decision in chambers this morning, said discussing the matter would affect Malaysia’s “good relationship” with Sri Lanka.
Manogaran tried to raise the matter when the Dewan Rakyat was in session, but Depu…ty Speaker Ronald Kiandee said his motion had already been rejected.
“I’m not raising a question on Sri Lanka,” Manogaran told reporters afterwards. “I’m just giving a notice to move the house to be adjourned to debate on the resolution given by the US. I don’t agree that it has to do with internal affairs. If we can’t debate it here, where can we debate it?”
Sungai Petani MP Johari Abdul (PKR), who visited Sri Lanka a few months ago, said the case of the South Asian nation was no different from that of Palestine.
He deduced, however, that the Barisan Nasional government was less concerned with Sri Lanka because most Malays were oblivious of the sufferings of people there “even though a lot of them are Muslim”.
As far as the government was concerned, he said, the Sri Lankans held no political mileage.
Klang MP Charles Santiago (DAP) accused Malaysia of being opportunistic when it came to human rights.
“We all support the Palestinian cause because we believe in the sovereignty of the nation, the people,” he said. “That same foreign policy must be extended to be people of Sri Lanka. But when it comes to Sri Lanka, it’s really opportunistic foreign policy making.”
Manogaran urged MIC to state its official stand on the resolution.
He said Malaysian Indians would want the MIC ministers to raise the issue in the next cabinet meeting, which is this Friday, the same day of the UN vote.
MIC Secretary General S Murugessan said that his party would state its official stand in two days’ time.
“We will conduct a meeting this evening to discuss the matter,” he told FMT.
Double standards
Manogaran, pointing to the Malaysian support for Muslim insurgents in southern Thailand and the southern Philippines, said: “It is clear that the BN government practises double standards in foreign policy.”
He also said Indians in Malaysia would be embarrassed if Malaysia were to vote against the UN resolution.
A political analysist sharing Pakatan’s view warned the BN government of a possible backlash if it failed to support the resolution.
A Thiruvengadam, who writes a political column for Tamil dailies, said the coming general election might turn out to be “another political tsunami” brought on by the Sri Lanka issue.
