Priorities



I was waiting in front of the tv yesterday to see Nicol David's glorious moments AND to my dissapointment ; only TV3 showed a glimpse of her winning the prestigious world title. RTM ? haks.. funnily they did not even mention her name from the KL studio - it was the sportscaster from Manila who congratulated her during his wrap up. I was like ..WHAT ??? HELLO ???

Instead , they were talking about Malaysia's achievement surpassing the 55 gold medal target in the current SEA GAMES in Manila. haks..busy getting comments from Pak LAh , Azalina.. etc. OK .. fine.. though this is Malaysia's best effort in SEA GAMES outside Malaysia but correct me if i am wrong ; i thought that Nicol's win as the wrold champion should be highlighted more ??! She's the WORLD CHAMPION man... The first Malaysian , ASIAN some more and the youngest world squash champion !!

I just don't understand . Though SEA GAMES is the biggest games in this region ; unfortunately it never brought us anywhere. Even with our best showing , WE ARE STILL 3rd in the countries standing. No where near Thailand or Philipines.We did not break any Asian or World records . ITS NOTHING compared to Nicol David's win in Hong Kong !! At least , the press should have interviewed her after her win and focussed more news on her achievement. She's a national hero man !!!

Priorities man.. priorities..

Congratulations to Nicol Ann David for her glorious acievement for Malaysia !! Malaysia Boleh !!

P/s If this year she's not the Ahli Sukan Kebangsaan , I bet it will be the sepak takraw team who wins it !! haakss..
