Twenty-seven out of the 30 Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) council members have won a free round-trip to London to support the shuttlers at the Olympic Games from the quarter-final stage onwards.

Three of them have declined the trip.

BAM will fork out an estimated RM250,000 for the trip, which includes travel, accommodation and tickets to watch the matches from the quarter-finals onwards. Not all of them have the accredited pass.

wtf? watch from home cannot?

BAM gt money u jelly ?? still its their money and they gt the right how they wanna spend it

nope. they use my money.

my money ..see my avatar

Is ROsmah going?

Confirm.com going if her boyfriend enter finale

then give hug ketiak... sure lose///

OK what. Don't tell me they send our athlete overseas then no supporter go? Already spend so much money training him plus if he win gold will fork out even more money. Pride of the country.

27 ppl wont make much diff

I see nothing wrong.

LCW needs support.

I see no wrong as well.

but the bigger question is, can he be 100% during the competition?

for support, technical and take care of LCW. kalau tgh malam LCW mau pegi toilet takut, at least one of 27 can teman him. if dia mau makan durian before d final, at least 2-3 members can go buy for him

the cost breakdown looks ok to me.

have to support his last chance to get gold

send this guy better

yeah... so does the poor kid in some rural area. but yea, those kids can die, supporting LCW is more important! Nice logic u have.
BAM got the funding from the Sport ministry, meaning its coming from the tax payer.

There's already money allocated for rural purpose in the first place.

Your argument is as if saying government spending is 100% on one particular, single purpose, when in actual, like any government else in the world, budget is apportioned to certain amount for many different purposes.

250k cannot buy one handbag also. ptuih

I dont mind BAM sending their staff..at least they have some wakil in the olympics.. But if FAM sent their staff to the world cup i would WTF..

lin dan sure win gold liao

daysinn? why not the ritz or the savoy?

what im saying is that money could have been use for better purpose. and those got sponsored, i could safely says that its their own people. if say they were sponsoring those that cant really afford to go, then its ok. charity better than cronies.

So if all of them lose before QF.... Will they still go? a

Releks la TS, sikit2 butthurt

Kroni di utamakan...

It's better if they send dieticians, doctors, trainers, psychologists or other personnel who would actually contribute to his well-being instead of 27 people who would be sitting in the stands. Unless of course, those experts are already included.

I'm not sure if you notice it, but I see from telecasts that Malaysia always seem to have a sizable group of supporters in UK badminton events.
