PETALING JAYA: It was all talk but no action.

The much-anticipated shake up in the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) failed to take place at the executive committee (exco) meeting at the Wisma FAM in Kelana Jaya on Monday.

According to the Crown Prince of Johor Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim last week, FAM president Tengku Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah and the exco members were expected to announce their decision to step down en masse on Monday.

But the only decision taken at the exco meeting on Monday was to call for an early FAM Congress (election) from 2018 to 2017.

FAM deputy president Datuk Seri Afandi Hamzah said Tengku Abdullah would still be the president until the new election next year.

"The exco decided this as a collective responsibility. We will let the affiliates decide on who they want to lead at the coming congress."

The FAM clarified that it was their decision to withdraw from hosting the 2017 FIFA congress in Kuala Lumpur.

Afandi said that they had been advised by the government to withdraw for security reasons. They had written to FIFA on July 25 and FIFA had accepted their withdrawal on Aug 9.

The Nauru files: Children abuse in Nauru

The Nauru files: cache of 2,000 leaked reports reveal scale of abuse of children in Australian offshore detention

The devastating trauma and abuse inflicted on children held by Australia in offshore detention has been laid bare in the largest cache of leaked documents released from inside its immigration regime.

More than 2,000 leaked incident reports from Australia’s detention camp for asylum seekers on the remote Pacific island of Nauru – totalling more than 8,000 pages – are published by the Guardian today. The Nauru files set out as never before the assaults, sexual abuse, self-harm attempts, child abuse and living conditions endured by asylum seekers held by the Australian government, painting a picture of routine dysfunction and cruelty.

The Guardian’s analysis of the files reveal that children are vastly over-represented in the reports. More than half of the 2,116 reports – a total of 1,086 incidents, or 51.3% – involve children, although children made up only about 18% of those in detention on Nauru during the time covered by the reports, May 2013 to October 2015. The findings come just weeks after the brutal treatment of young people in juvenile detention in the Northern Territory was exposed, leading to the Australian prime minister, Malcolm Turnbull, announcing a wide-ranging public inquiry.

The Guardian’s analysis of the files reveal that children are vastly over-represented in the reports. More than half of the 2,116 reports – a total of 1,086 incidents, or 51.3% – involve children, although children made up only about 18% of those in detention on Nauru during the time covered by the reports, May 2013 to October 2015. The findings come just weeks after the brutal treatment of young people in juvenile detention in the Northern TerritThe reports range from a guard allegedly grabbing a boy and threatening to kill him once he is living in the community to guards allegedly slapping children in the face. In September 2014 a teacher reported that a young classroom helper had requested a four-minute shower instead of a two-minute shower. “Her request has been accepted on condition of sexual favours. It is a male security person. She did not state if this has or hasn’t occurred. The security officer wants to view a boy or girl having a shower.”

Some reports contain distressing examples of behaviour by traumatised children. According to a report from September 2014, a girl had sewn her lips together. A guard saw her and began laughing at her. In July that year a child under the age of 10 undressed and invited a group of adults to insert their fingers into her vagina; in February 2015 a young girl gestured to her vagina and said a male asylum seeker “cut her from under” was exposed, leading to the Australian prime minister, Malcolm Turnbull, announcing a wide-ranging public inquiry.In the files there are seven reports of sexual assault of children, 59 reports of assault on children, 30 of self-harm involving children and 159 of threatened self-harm involving children.The reports show extraordinary acts of desperation. One pregnant woman, after being told she would need to give birth on Nauru in October 2015, was agitated and in tears. “I give my baby to Australia to look after,” she pleaded with a caseworker, adding: “I don’t want to have my baby in PNG, the [Nauru hospital] or have it in this dirty environment.”The files raise stark questions about how information is reported on Nauru, one of Australia’s two offshore detention centres for asylum seekers who arrive by boat. They highlight serious concerns about the ongoing risks to children and adults held on the island. They show how the Australian government has failed to respond to warning signs and reveal sexual assault allegations – many involving children – that have never been previously disclosed.The most damning evidence emerges from the words of the staff working in the detention centre themselves – the people who compile the reports. These caseworkers, guards, teachers and medical officers have been charged with caring for hundreds of asylum seekers on the island.The publication is likely to renew calls for an end to the political impasse that has seen children in Australia’s care languish on Nauru for more than three years.

Nauru is the world’s smallest island state, home to fewer than 10,000 people. Australia supplies aid and buys services from Nauru’s government and companies, leading to accusations Nauru is effectively a “client state”. On the last official count at the end of June, 442 people – 338 men, 55 women and 49 children – were held in the Nauru regional processing centre. The other offshore centre, on Manus Island in Papua New Guinea, was holding 854 people, all men. Australia’s policy has been criticised regularly by the UN.

The Guardian is publishing the files because it believes Australians have the right to know more about the regime at the Nauru and Manus centres, which costs Australian taxpayers $1.2bn a year.

The documents cover the period examined in a review into allegations of sexual assault, the Australian Human Rights Commission’s inquiry into children in detention as well as the period examined by a Senate inquiry and beyond. They encompass the final days of Labor’s time in government and the ruling conservative Coalition’s time in office since September 2013.

In each successive inquiry, the Australian government and its contractors, including Broadspectrum (formerly Transfield Services) and its subcontractor Wilson Security, have maintained that they are improving conditions and reporting measures to raise the quality of life on the island.

In April 2015 the Australian immigration minister, Peter Dutton, said he wanted to make Nauru a “safe environment”. He said he had “instructed the department to do whatever they possibly can, both domestically within the detention network here and with our partners in the regional processing centres, to make sure that the standard of care is as high as it possibly can be”.

Wilson Security has previously told the Australian parliament it had “robust policies, procedures and processes that support the operations in Nauru”.

It continued: “Allegations of sexual assault are treated in a timely and sensitive manner. Where Wilson Security receives an allegation we take immediate action following disclosure or notification.”

But the files show a very different picture. Rather than serious events diminishing, they continued – and in some cases escalated – during the course of 2015. A vast number of incidents from across the timeframe have never before been reported.

A short history of Nauru, Australia’s dumping ground for refugees
Its phosphate reserves once made a speck in the Pacific one of the richest countries on Earth. Today Nauru is broke, barren and beholden to its neighbour

Many asylum seekers held on Nauru were unable to leave the detention compounds during the period covered by the files. Some had been granted permission to leave on day trips but were closely monitored to ensure they returned before curfews. Those found to be refugees were released into the Nauruan community – yet still remain effectively detained on the remote island.

The primary evidence from the files backs up testimony from former immigration detention staff members interviewed by the Guardian as part of its investigation.

Access to Nauru is tightly controlled. Events on the island are reported sporadically through refugee advocates and whistleblowers, but the Australian government’s policy of shrouding its offshore detention centres in secrecy has prevented the reporting of many serious incidents. The Nauru files shatter that secrecy.

In response to the Nauru files, the Australian Department of Immigration and Border Protection said in a statement: “The Australian government continues to support the Nauruan government to provide for the health, welfare and safety of all transferees and refugees in Nauru.

“The documents published today are evidence of the rigorous reporting procedures that are in place in the regional processing centre – procedures under which any alleged incident must be recorded, reported and where necessary investigated. Many of the incident reports reflect unconfirmed allegations or uncorroborated statements and claims – they are not statements of proven fact.

“All alleged criminal incidents within the regional processing centre are referred to the Nauru Police Force (NPF) for investigation. Refugees living in the community are encouraged to report all criminal incidents to the NPF. A number of matters remain under active investigation.

“The department is examining the matters published today to ensure all of these matters have been reported appropriately by service providers, consistent with the policies and procedures covering such matters.”
The department added that it “also takes seriously its role in supporting the government of Nauru to protect children from abuse, neglect or exploitation”.

Sexual violence and threats
Allegations of sexual assault, particularly against young women, are a persistent theme of the files. In one report an asylum seeker described being told she was “on a list” written by local Nauruan guards naming single women they were “waiting for”. “She has received offers to get her pregnant when she gets out,” the caseworker wrote.

They reveal allegations of misconduct by Wilson Security guards at the detention centre. In one report a “cultural adviser” for Wilson Security, the company that employs guards at the detention camp, allegedly told an asylum seeker who had been sexually assaulted in camp that “rape in Australia is very common and people don’t get punished”.

The caseworker who filed the report wrote that the female asylum seeker also told her the guard had questioned whether the sexual assault had occurred and said: “If that happened to you why didn’t you scream at the time?”

“You have to take it out of your head if you go into Nauru then he [the alleged perpetrator] could be your neighbour or if you go to Cambodia then he could be on the plane next to you,” the adviser reportedly told the woman. “You also have to teach your son to treat this man nicely.”There are allegations that bus drivers – employed by Australia’s detention contractors – took voyeuristic pictures of women in the camp to use to masturbate. Other reports range from a man facing threats of sexual violence from other asylum seekers to a woman threatening self-harm because she doesn’t want “men to touch her body”.

Speaking before the publication of the Nauru files, Prof Louise Newman, a former member of the Immigration Health Advisory Group, says such attacks have continued. She speaks “on a nightly basis” to women on Nauru who have been sexually assaulted.

“I am prepared to say the sexual assault of women is a major problem on Nauru,” Newman says. “Some of the women’s descriptions of what is happening to them is incredibly alarming in terms of the lack of process.

“It’s not just one incident. If it was one incident and there had been a poor response in a developing nation then maybe it was something to work on. I think what we’re seeing is a systemic lack of processes and understanding of this.”

Trauma and self-harm
Health and medical experts have consistently warned of the mental harm caused by prolonged detention. The files show in graphic detail how this harm has manifested.

One man asked a caseworker where he could buy bullets so he could get someone else to shoot him. A woman sharpened a pencil with a razor blade, then cut her wrists. Another wrapped a rope around her neck and tried to hang herself. She had to be held up by guards until she could be cut down.

In one report from January 2015, a teenage girl struggled to cope after her mother’s miscarriage. She began having “ongoing hallucinations from a ‘small person’ ”, a Save the Children worker wrote.

“She is unsure if it is a man or women but has a dark face and is the size of a child.” The hallucination had threatened to kill her: “At other times the hallucination is encouraging [REDACTED] to kill herself.”

The toll on children’s mental health is particularly heavy. According to an April 2015 report a girl began screaming “uncontrollably” during a fight in a recreation tent.

“During this time [REDACTED] also gouged at her own face consistently and pulled her own hair,” the child protection officer wrote. “It was observed that [REDACTED] could not breath properly and had a glazed look in her eyes.”

‘I want death’: Nauru files chronicle despair of asylum seeker children
The voices of children emerging repeatedly from the official reports betray the ruin of lives with no signs of respite from Australia’s detention regime

Other files show the anguished outbursts to which some asylum seekers have become prone since their detention: one report described a woman seeking a bandage after punching a metal pole with both hands. Another told of a woman who began banging her head with her fists after an altercation with guards. Another woman carved her husband’s name on to her chest; she wanted a tattoo but could not get one so used a knife instead. Her husband lives in Australia.

Speaking to the Guardian before the publication of the Nauru files, Dr Peter Young, a former medical director of mental health for Australia’s immigration detention system, said: “Self-harm and suicide attempts increase steadily after six months in detention. This is driven by hopelessness which is known to be the strongest predictor of suicide.

“Some self-harm, such as lip sewing, has a protest element and is common in prisoners as an expression of feeling powerless and voiceless.”

Squalor
Other reports show the squalor and the difficulties getting medical treatment. One female asylum seeker, who has urinary incontinence, complained about how she was no longer provided with sanitary pads to treat the condition.

According to another report a female guard allegedly refused to let a child under 10 use a toilet and made her squat on the ground instead. Her mother told a caseworker the guard had then shone her torch on the girl’s genitals.

Twelve of the most harrowing accounts from the Nauru files – in pictures
View gallery
The logs illustrate the squalid conditions often experienced by asylum seekers at the centre, including frequent complaints of cockroaches infesting tents housing the detainees.

One report showed how the companies’ failure to communicate traumatises asylum seekers. The medical provider International Health and Medical Services ran a “mass casualty simulation” that had people daubed with fake blood walking around. But the plan was not reported to the Save the Children teachers at the nearby school.

“The incident prompted every student to start talking about incidents of self-harm they had witnessed,” a teacher wrote. “They did not know this one was false and so were forced to experience another incident at school, which should be a safe, distracting environment.”

UAE 2019 AFC ASIAN CUP PLAYOFF ROUND - SECOND LEG FIXTURES

MALAYSIA VS TIMOR LESTE ( 1ST LEG 3-0)

STADIUM TAN SRI HAJI HASSAN YUNUS, JOHOR BAHRU

TODAY 10PM

LIVESTREAMING WILL BE PROVIDED IF AVAILABLE (DEPENDING ON PERMISSION FROM FAM AND STADIUM AUTHORITIES)

SEBELUM TU- SALAM RAMADAHAN YA

ohor Baru: Coach Ong Kim Swee is remaining cautious despite Malaysia heading into Monday’s 2019 AFC Asian Cup qualifying play-off against Timor-Leste with a commanding 3-0 advantage.
Ahmad Hazwan Bakri scored twice and provided an assist for Amri Yahyah last week as Malaysia secured a comfortable victory at Stadium Tan Sri Dato Hj Hassan Yunos.

But despite the second leg, which is officially Timor-Leste’s home tie, also taking place at the home of 2015 AFC Cup winners Johor Darul Ta’zim, the Malaysia coach has demanded focus with a guaranteed place in the third and final round of qualifiers for the 2019 tournament in the United Arab Emirates at stake for the winner.

"We have to be wary and prepare for any eventualities in the second leg. Timor-Leste exposed us through their counterattacks in the first leg,” he said.

"Every match we turn up, we want to win and the most important thing for me is we qualify for the next stage. We have to focus and there will be no complacency until the final whistle.

"We have to look at the situation as the game goes on. When it comes to formation, you can put any number. But the concept remains the same and we cannot afford to be static.

"The players' mentality will also play an important part. I don't think there will be any major changes, although we will be checking on the injuries from Izham Tarimizi, Shahrom Kalam and Brendan Gan.”

The losers will still have the chance to qualify for the 2019 AFC Asian Cup, as the five teams who are not successful this month will join Bhutan in a final round of play-offs in September and October, with the final three places available in the 24-team third round which starts next year.

"It will not be easy to overcome the first leg loss, especially when we did not score the important away goal, but we will concentrate to make a good game tomorrow,” said Timor-Leste coach Fabio Maciel.

"My boys are ready for the second leg. We have adapted better to the environment and corrected some mistakes from the first leg during training these few days.

"There will be a few changes in my side as we need to be more aggressive and have more possession of the ball. We have to be more intelligent in the way we play.

"If Malaysia relax after the big lead, we will be looking to take advantage and hope to spring a surprise."

[NEWS}Former English club player Darren

vuetnam — Wed, 25 May 2016 15:16:15 +0800

PETALING JAYA: Mixed-heritage striker Darren Lok is racing against time to be included in the national team’s 2019 Asian Cup playoff match.

The 24-year-old is close to being granted Malaysian citizenship and will be available for the national team’s playoff match against Timor Leste on June 2 – if he gets his Malaysian passport by Thursday.

Darren last plied his trade with Eastbourne Borough, a semi-professional club in the Conference South league (a sixth-tier competition in England).

Darren, whose father is from Malacca, has been attending trials with Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT) and could be offered a contract to play for either JDT or Premier League outfit JDT II when the mid-season transfer window opens on June 20.

National coach Datuk Ong Kim Swee believes that although Darren would be a good inclusion to the team, “he will not get a free run straight into the side”.

“Darren still has to prove himself ... no one’s guaranteed a place in the national team. I will have to assess his condition first,” Kim Swee said after the national team’s training session at Wisma FAM in Kelana Jaya on Tuesday.

“I won’t need long to see if he's good enough for the national team ... maybe one or two days. I’ve also received good feedback from JDT.
“He probably won’t be not be ready for the Timor Leste match ... let him get his passport first.”

Kim Swee is likely to include Darren for the tour of Oceania, where Malaysia will be based in Brisbane for five days before flying out to play Papua New Guinea (June 17), New Caledonia (June 22) and Fiji (June 26).

Kim Swee also said that Australian-born Matt Davies and R. Gopinathan had been dropped from the Asian Cup playoffs due to injuries.

"Matt and Gopi will be out for two weeks, so they won’t feature in the tour of Oceania,” said Kim Swee.

“We have called up Mahali Jasuli from JDT as Matt’s replacement. For Gopi’s slot, we’ll leave it vacant first.”

http://www.thestar.com.my/sport/football/2...quad-for-macau/

PETALING JAYA: In a twist of fate, leftback Nazirul Naim Che Hashim has found himself back in the national football team.

A minor injury crisis and the lack of a natural leftback have forced national coach Datuk Ong Kim Swee to call up Nazirul for the friendly against Macau at the Hang Jebat Stadium in Malacca on Monday.

“It’s good to be called up again after missing the team’s last two assignments. I hope to reclaim my spot in the team,” said Nazirul who joined the team’s training camp in Malacca on Friday.

“I want to prove why I deserve to be in the starting XI. I don’t think I will have problems adapting to the team because I have played for the team before. Some of the players had also previously played with me during my Harimau Muda days.”

The 22-year-old Nazirul earned his first senior cap against Saudi Arabia in the 2018 World Cup qualifying Asian Zone Group A match at the Shah Alam Stadium on Sept 8. The match was abandoned with Malaysia trailing 1-2 in the 88th minute due to crowd trouble.

He then went on to feature for Malaysia in the 1-0 win over Timor Leste in Dili on Oct 13 and the 6-0 loss to Palestine in Jordan on Nov 12. He was later dropped from the other World Cup qualifying matches, including Malaysia’s 0-2 loss to Saudi Arabia in Jeddah in their final group match on Thursday.

A former Harimau Muda A skipper, Nazirul joined Super League side Perak earlier this season.

But his return to his home state was far from ideal. He was struggling for form and was also hampered by a hamstring injury.

“I joined a new team, so it’s natural to take some time to adapt to the team and their tactics. I was also injured early in the season but I’m fully recovered now,” said Nazirul.

“Kim Swee knows my game well and I understand his expectations. Now I will have to prove myself in training to get a place in the starting XI.”

AFC suspend general secretary Soosay

http://www.thestar.com.my/Sport/Football/2...cretary-Soosay/

KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) - The Asian Football Confederation suspended its general secretary Alex Soosay on Wednesday following allegations he asked another official to hide some documents during a corruption probe.

The AFC released a brief statement saying the Malaysian had been suspended while they investigate the media claims relating to a case dating back three years.

"Asian Football Confederation General Secretary Dato' Alex Soosay was today suspended by the AFC following media allegations which have recently surfaced concerning a case in 2012," the statement said.

The AFC said deputy general secretary Windsor John would replace Soosay on an interim basis while the investigation was carried out.

Soosay was accused by a Malaysian newspaper of ordering some documents to be hidden during a review of AFC practices under former president Mohamed bin Hammam, who was later banned for life by FIFA for corruption.

Soosay has denied any allegations of wrongdoing and told Reuters earlier this month that he believed the case was closed.

But the AFC said on Wednesday that he had been suspended after they had seen and verified a video that was part of the investigation.

"A video statement conducted as part of a FIFA investigation was passed to media recently and the AFC has now been able to verify its authenticity, the AFC said.

The allegations first surfaced last month when the Malay Mail newspaper published a report claiming Soosay had asked another AFC official to "protect me".

The newspaper said Soosay had made the request to AFC financial director Bryan Kuan Wee Hoong.

The Malay Mail said the video involved a conversation between Kuan and FIFA investigator Michael John Pride where the AFC official discussed a conversation he had with Soosay in 2012.

A former player, Soosay has held the position of AFC general secretary since 2008.

His role meant he worked closely with Qatari Bin Hammam, who was initially banned by football's governing body for bribery ahead of the 2011 FIFA presidential elections in which he was standing against incumbent Sepp Blatter.

Bin Hammam eventually overturned the verdict after a lengthy court process only to be banned following a review of AFC accounts by FIFA who accused him of repeated violations of the ethics code during 2008-2011.

Two Americans freed by North Korea

vuetnam — Sun, 09 Nov 2014 13:59:16 +0800

http://edition.cnn.com/2014/11/09/world/as....html?hpt=hp_t1

(CNN) -- Two Americans who spent months imprisoned in North Korea arrived back on U.S. soil late Saturday after the secretive nation's leader, Kim Jong Un, ordered their release. They were freed following a rare visit by a top U.S. official to North Korea, bringing a letter from President Barack Obama.
A plane carrying Kenneth Bae and Matthew Todd Miller, the last two American citizens known to be held by North Korea, landed at Joint Base Lewis-McChord in Washington state.The two men got off the plane one after the other -- Bae first, then Miller -- both walking into the open arms of smiling relatives who were waiting on the tarmac. The pair were released after U.S. Director of National Intelligence James Clapper went to Pyongyang as an envoy of Obama, a senior State Department official told CNN.

Clapper delivered a letter from Obama, addressed to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, describing Clapper as "his personal envoy" to bring the Americans home, a senior administration official told CNN on Saturday. The letter was "short and to the point," the official said. Clapper did not meet with Kim.
Clapper had no guarantee he would bring the Americans home, a senior State Department official told CNN. The North Korean government issued a statement about the release, saying it received an "earnest apology" from Obama for the men's actions. It also said the two were "sincerely repentant of their crimes and (were) behaving themselves while serving their terms." According to the statement, the first chairman of North Korea's National Defense Commission ordered the release. The title is one of several top positions that Kim holds in the North Koran hierarchy.

China assisted in the months long process of arranging the release, the State Department official said.Clapper's visit came after North Korea contacted the U.S. government unexpectedly and urged the administration to send a Cabinet-level official to North Korea's capital to discuss the detained Americans, according to two sources close to the matter. A U.S. official told CNN that Washington believes Pyongyang reached out to show it had the clout to get a Cabinet-level official to come and doing so would help solidify Kim's power. The request came about two weeks ago, the official said.
Clapper ended up canceling an event in New York on Wednesday as the trip was being arranged, an Obama administration official said. He went to Pyongyang "prepared to listen" on other issues, but his sole focus was to bring Bae and Miller home, according to the same official.
An official in Clapper's office said the talks didn't touch on North Korea's controversial nuclear program. And other U.S. officials said there was no "quid pro quo" for the men's release.

Bae's sister, Terri Chung, told CNN that her family spent Saturday morning shedding happy tears and spreading the good news among relatives and friends.
"Words cannot adequately express our relief and gratitude that Kenneth is finally coming home!" the family added later in a full statement. "We have been waiting for and praying for this day for two years. This ordeal has been excruciating for the family, but we are filled with joy right now."
There was no immediate reaction from Miller's family.
Obama expressed appreciation for Clapper's efforts "on what was obviously a challenging mission" and happiness Bae and Miller would soon be home.
"It's a wonderful day for them and their families," the President said.

2019 Asian Games host crisis

vuetnam — Tue, 29 Jul 2014 16:04:03 +0800

Asian Games could be moved to 2018 to help attract replacement after Hanoi withdrawal

Hanoi's decision to pull out of hosting the 2019 Asian Games could lead to the event being staged a year earlier if that suits one of the growing number of candidates better, it has been revealed by Sheikh Ahmad Al Fahad Al Sabah.

The Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) President has claimed that "several cities" are interested in hosting the 18th Asian Games following the withdrawal in April of the Vietnamese capital because of economic pressures.

He also revealed that he has been given the flexibility to allow a city to host the 2018 rather than 2019 if that makes the event more attractive to them.

The Games is due to switch to a five-year gap for one edition after the 17th edition in Incheon before returning to a four-year cycle in 2019.

That decision had been taken so the Asian Games avoided clashing with other major events in that cycle, including the Winter Olympics and FIFA World Cup.

Indonesia were installed as the new favourite to host the Games in the immediate aftermath of Hanoi's withdrawal but India is increasingly emerging as a potential bidder, while Kaohsiung City in Taiwan and Malaysian capital Kuala Lumpur remain interested and Chinese city Nanjing, due to host this year's Summer Youth Olympic Games, have also floated the idea of putting themselves forward.

A bid from India, who have hosted the Games twice before, including the inaugural one in New Delhi in 1951, would provide the OCA with a real alternative.

The Sports Authority of India (SAI) have now thrown their support behind a potential campaign for Delhi to bid to host the Games for a third time, having also staged it in 1982, despite the lingering after-effects of the corruption scandal that tainted the 2010 Commonwealth Games in the Indian capital.

"It's a good idea [the Indian Olympic Association's desire to host 2019 Asian Games]," said Jiji Thomson, director general of the SAI.

"We have the infrastructure to host such Games.

"Whenever this bid for 2019 Asian Games comes up, we will support it.

"Why should we shy away from hosting these big Games only because there was corruption scandals in 2010 Commonwealth Games?

"I am not denying that there was corruption but we should not remain stuck because of that and not host other big Games."

A successful hosting of the Asian Games could help rekindle Indian ambitions to host the Olympics and Paralympics, claimed Thomson.

"India is the only big country, an important one, which has not hosted Olympic Games," he said.

"I feel India should bid for Olympic Games in near future.

"Had it not been the corruption scandal in 2010 Commonwealth Games, I feel India would have bid for 2020 or 2024 Olympic Games."

The OCA are due to choose a new host city on September 20 during the next edition of the Asian Games in Incheon, South Korea.

so what do /k/ tards think? Which cities in Asia can host the next Asian Games 2018?
