00:08Various reactions arose after Minister Belia and Sukan Henayo
00:11appeared to explain that KBS did not impose any targets based on the Tinggat match.
00:17The KBS decision caused controversy
00:20with the former head of MSN and Sukan's adviser
00:23disagreeing with the statement made by Minister Belia and Sukan.
00:29Former head of MSN and Sukan's adviser, Dato' Ahmad Syapawi Ismail,
00:34insisted that Minister Belia and Sukan
00:36needed to impose heavy targets for the 2025 Sukan Si match in Thailand in December.
00:41In response to Minister Belia and Sukan's statement, Henayo said
00:44Syapawi explained that the athletes need to be aware of their responsibilities
00:48and cannot impose excessive pressure factors as an excuse to fail.
00:52According to him, the pressure is part of the process
00:55to make the athletes mature before they become champions.
00:58In addition, the advice of Sukan University's expert, Nippon,
01:03needs to be re-examined before placing a statement
01:06that finally received criticism from various parties.
01:12They did not target the gold medal,
01:15but the decision was made towards Sukan Olympics.
01:20So, in my opinion, for the Sukan Si level,
01:25we have a lot of approaches.
01:27We can target the total medal and so on,
01:30and we can also target specifically the gold, silver and bronze medals.
01:35There are a lot of approaches for targeting,
01:38but in my opinion, for the Sukan Si level,
01:42where the number of participants is less than 10 countries,
01:47and we already know who we will compete with,
01:50and we can already estimate our ability,
01:53so I think there is no problem in targeting more specifically.
02:00Meanwhile, Sukan Tempatan's observer,
02:02Muhammad Sadiq Mustafa, was pleased with Syapawi
02:05and considered the target to be important
02:07to ensure the country's reputation in the best environment in Sukan Si.
02:12The objective is to meet the target
02:15with the amount of allowance they receive every month,
02:19the facilities provided for living, food and drinks,
02:23and the support provided by the Sukan Negara Institute.
02:29And when they compete,
02:32all the expenses are taken care of by the country,
02:35under the Sukan Negara Institute.
02:37So, I think they should be given a set target,
02:40and the facilities they provide before going to Sukan Si,
02:45their achievements should have been assessed by the training team,
02:53which is their target when they compete in Sukan Si later.
