Help is at hand after plight highlighted

The Sports Minister and the National Sports Council will help to rectify the poor training conditions for the diving team after it was highlighted in the New Straits Times.

Kudos for the help....but the association has to write in first and it will be discussed at the JKK meeting.
And this the sport in the Road to London 2012 programme.
In the first place this issue should not have never surfaced at all if everything was done well and looked into as part of the preparations for the Olympics.
Anyway, let is hope it all ends well.
And training for diving in China...why not Europe or even England. Maybe even in Leipzig . Time zone difference at a minimum in Europe? Climate and environment acclimatisation?. Or is it better in China where the coach comes from? Cheaper maybe? The experts knows best. Good Luck.

It takes a former senior journalist to highlight the plight of sports in the country for the Minister to realize.
