TEMPOInteraktif, Palembang - Menteri Pemuda dan Olahraga Andi Mallarangeng meminta pekerja untuk tetap beraktivitas seperti biasanya meski tengah libur bersama Hari Raya Idul Fitri 1432 H. Pasalnya, Andi menyaksikan sebagian besar venues SEA Games masih dalam tahap pengerjaan.
“Saya tekankan mereka tetap bekerja seperti biasanya meski tengah berlebaran,” kata Andi di Jakabaring Sport City, Rabu, 24 Agustus 2011. Baru lapangan tenis dan wisma atlet yang dapat difungsikan dalam test event yang akan dimulai September mendatang.
Andi melihat langsung perkembangan pembangunan venues SEA Games didampingi Gubernur Sumatera Selatan. Rombongan mereka langsung menuju lapangan tembak yang ada di kompleks Jakabaring Sport City. Lapangan tembak itu dibangun oleh PT Prambanan Dwipangka.
Agung Sugiono, Manajer Proyek Lapangan Tembak, menuturkan bila saat ini mereka tengah menghadapi kendala mendatangkan batu split untuk menyelesaikan proyek tersebut sehingga terdapat kemunduran sekitar 1 persen dari target. Akibatnya, sejumlah pengerjaan yang membutuhkan split mesti ditunda sampai waktu yang belum jelas. Agung tetap optimistis lapangan tembak dapat digunakan pada menjelang test event yang digelar September ini.
Menurut Agung, lapangan tembak sudah selesai sekitar 70 persen dari total proyek. “Sebelumnya kami kekurangan semen, kini kami tengah berburu batu split,” kata Agung. Ia menduga menghilangnya batu split saat ini lantaran banyak truk yang beralih mengangkut kebutuhan pokok jelang Lebaran.
Ia memastikan usai Lebaran, suplai sejumlah material akan normal. Terkait permintaan Menpora untuk meniadakan liburan Lebaran, Agung memaklumi permintaan itu. Menurut Agung, usai Lebaran, ia akan menambah jumlah pekerja hingga 500 orang.
Dari lapangan tembak, Andi meninjau venue panjat tebing di kompleks yang sama. Andi mendapati sebagian besar rangka baja masih terhampar di sekitar lokasi. Namun Arianto, Manejer Proyek Panjat Tebing dari PT Lince, meyakinkan Menteri bahwa mereka segera memasang seluruh rangka baja sebelum Lebaran Idul Fitri. “Kami tengah melakukan penyetelan. Pokoknya sebelum Lebaran semuanya sudah naik," kata Arianto optimistis.
Dalam keterangan pers usai peninjauan di seluruh venues, And tetap optimistis seluruh venues akan selesai tepat waktu. Ia meyakini tidak satu pun arena pertandingan di Jakabaring akan dipindahkan ke daerah lain lantaran masih jauh dari rencana proyek. “Pokoknya semua di sini, panjat tebing juga tetap di sini,” kata Andy.

KOMPAS/YULVIANUS HARJONO Wisma Atlet PALEMBANG, KOMPAS.com — Menjelang Lebaran, Wisma Atlet SEA Games di Kompleks Olahraga Jakabaring, Palembang, menjadi tontonan pemudik. Wisma Atlet menjadi perhatian luas seiring mencuatnya kasus dugaan korupsi yang melibatkan politisi M Nazaruddin.
Seperti terlihat pada Senin (29/8/2011), dengan menggunakan kendaraan berpelat nomor luar Palembang, sejumlah pengunjung terlihat berfoto-foto di depan Wisma Atlet Jakabaring. Menurut para pengunjung yang sebagian besar para pemudik, mereka penasaran dengan gedung yang beberapa waktu terakhir ini telah menghebohkan publik.
Gedung Wisma Atlet yang diperuntukkan khusus menyambut SEA Games XXVI tahun 2011 ini telah selesai dibangun. Dari tiga bangunan, tinggal satu bangunan yang diperuntukkan hall atau ruang pertemuan yang belum selesai dibangun.
Kompleks Wisma Atlet yang terlihat megah seperti apartemen mewah ini memiliki sedikitnya 369 ruangan. Fasilitas pendukung macam listrik, pendingin udara, dan pemanas air sudah terpasang. Tinggal furnitur atau mebel dan alat-alat elektronik lain yang belum terpasang di kamar-kamar.

SEMARANG, Kompas.com - Pelari nasional asal Jawa Tengah, Agus Prayogo, tidak bisa berkumpul dengan keluarga saat Lebaran 2011 ini. Pasalnya, dia hanya mendapat libur dua hari.
"Saya memang libur dua hari tetapi tidak bisa pulang kampung ke Magelang, Jateng, arena waktunya mepet, dan usai libur harus menjalani latihan kembali untuk persiapan tampil di SEA Games XXVI, November 2011," kata Agus ketika dihubungi dari Semarang, Minggu (28/8/11).
Menurut peraih medali emas SEA Games XXV 2009 Laos (nomor lari 10.000 meter) tersebut, pesta olahraga multievent antarnegara Asia Tenggara di Sumatera Selatan dan DKI Jakarta kurang dua bulan lagi. Karenanya, dia harus konsentrasi penuh.
Ketika ditanya keikutsertaannya pada "Army Half Maraton" di Singapura, 4 September 2011, dia mengatakan, dirinya tidak jadi tampil pada event yang menempuh jarak 21 kilometer tersebut.
"Dua minggu yang lalu saya menerima surat dari induk organisasi olahraga atletik di Tanah Air ini supaya fokus ke SEA Games dan sudah disetujui KSAD," katanya menegaskan.
Pada SEA Games XXVI mendatang, Agus bakal turun pada dua nomor andalannya, yaitu lari 5.000 dan 10.000 meter dengan target mendapatkan dua medali emas dari kedua nomor tersebut.
Menurut dia, pada SEA Games 2009 Laos dia hanya turun satu nomor yaitu 10.000 meter dan meraih medali emas dengan catatan waktu 29 menit 50 detik. "Saya ingin mempertahankan emas dari 10.000 meter dan mengincar emas dari lari 5.000 meter," katanya.
Ia menambahkan, pesaing untuk nomor lari 10.000 meter tampaknya belum ada tetapi dirinya tidak akan memandang rendah atlet dari negara lain. "Semua lawan tetap berbahaya dan tetap harus diwaspadai," katanya.
Kalau untuk lari 5.000 meter, kata dia, kebetulan di Laos tidak turun tetapi berdasarkan catatan waktu saat tampil pada Asian Games XVI di Guangzhou, China, 2010, ternyata masih jauh dari peraih emas SEA Games 2009.
Ia menyebutkan, saat tampil pada Asian Games 2010 catatan waktunya untuk lari 5.000 meter adalah 14 menit 04 detik, sedangkan peraih emas SEA Games 2009 adalah 14 menit 35 detik. Bahkan saat tampil pada "Army Olymiad" di Brasil beberapa waktu lalu, Agus mampu menembus waktu 14.02.12 padahal rekor SEA Games adalah 14.08 atas nama Rahmad Chandra dari Malaysia.

Rahmad Darmawan.JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com - Pelatih Rahmad Darmawan (RD) telah dikontrak PSSI sampai 2013 mendatang. Kontrak tersebut bersifat fleksibel di mana RD bisa berpindah-pindah posisi di berbagai level usia di timnas Indonesia.
"Sekarang fokus di U-23. Namun, nanti kalau selesai kegiatan (Sea Games) kita mungkin ditempatkan ke lainnya. Kita harus siap," jelas RD di kantor PSSI, Senayan, Jakarta, Sabtu (27/8/2011).
RD dikontrak PSSI bersama dua asistennya, Widodo Cahyono Putro dan Aji Santoso. Ketiganya saat ini masih fokus untuk membawa timnas U-23 meraih target emas di Sea Games mendatang.
"Kontraknya itu sama PSSI, dan bukan untuk U-23 saja. Jadi, bisa saja berpindah-pindah," timpal Ketua Umum PSSI Djohar Arifin Husin.
RD sebelumnya sempat membantu pelatih timnas senior Indonesia Wim Rijsbergen saat "Garuda" menghadapi Turkmenistan pada laga babak kedua kualifikasi Piala Dunia zona Asia lalu. Namun, ia kemudian diminta PSSI fokus total di timnas U-23 dan posisinya di timnas senior digantikan Listiyadi.
Mengenai perkembangan timnas U-23 sendiri, RD mengatakan, "Tanggal 4 September kita mulai pelatnas tim Sea Games di Yogyakarta sampai tanggal 10. Tanggal 11 kita berangkat ke Hong Kong sampai tanggal 22."
"Hasil uji coba kemarin, ada beberapa hal yang cukup baik. Namun, secara keseluruhan ada yang masih harus kita perbaiki. Tim efektif berkumpul baru tiga pekan dan satu sama lain belum sering bergabung. Butuh waktu untuk mematangkan kerja sama tim," tukas RD.
Apologies for the lack of activity here recently. I 8 to offer any real excuse but it is Leberan here and everyone has gone home. Certainly everyone in our home has gone home and i am left doing a Wenger...trying to clean up the shit I have been left with after losing maid and nanny!

Malaysia's Olympic Games Qualifying campaign received a further boost when it was announced three of their young players had signed a two month loan deal with Slovakian side FC Vion Zlate Moravce.
Fadhli Shas, Zack Haikul and Irfan Faizal are part of the Malaysian team that have been based in Slovakia the last few months and obviously FC Vion, who are 3rd in the Slovakian league, liked what they saw and signed the three on a short term deal.
November sees the start of the Olympic Qualifiers and Malaysia have been drawn against Japan, Syria and Bahrain
I think it was 2009 when people in the region were suggesting that Vietnam would be the best league in the region, whatever that means. Certainly in that particular year the average attendance in the VLeague was just over 10,500, a bit below the Indonesian Super League.
For the just finished 2011 season average attendances are down by a startling 30 odd % with just 7,395 going per game.
Hai Phong remain the most popular team at the gate but they too have seen crowds fall. In 2009 they averaged just over 24,000. In 2011? 17,154.
Anyone got any idea why the crowds there should have fallen so dramatically?
I understand Gombak United coach Darren Stewart is being linked with a move to Johor ahead of next season's Malaysia Premier League.
Aussie Stewart is in his third season with The Bulls and many felt the team would have won some silverware in 2010 had the fates not conspired against them so cruelly.
If he does get appointed coach them it would be his third spell with the Malaysian side. He had two spells with the club as a player in the 1990s, winning the Malaysia Cup in 1998, beating the late, great David Rocastle's team in the final.
There had been talk that this would finally be the year that iconic Indonesian striker Bambang Pamungkas would leave Persija. Instead a new club leader has convinced the international to stay another year and along with fellow long serving Ismed Sofyan will wear the orange of Persija in the upcoming season.
Other players who are reported to be signing on for another year are Greg Nwokolo, Leo Saputra and Ramdhani Lestaluhu.
The club have signed Johan Juansyah and he recently scored for the Under 23s in a friendly against Makassar United.
One player not retained is the popular striker Aliyudin and one rumour has suggested he may return to former club Persikota though that remains to be seen.
The other foreigners at the club, including Oliver Mako and Precious Emuerjeraye have also been allowed to leave as has veteran keeper Hendro Kartiko and midfielder Syamsul Chaeruddin
Many were saying last December that Singapore football was in terminal decline. The perceived wisdom among the wizened old hacks and the keyboard warriors who impotently vomit their self loathing on anonymous message boards was that following the failure to win the ASEAN Football Federation Cup, as if the Lions have the right to win it every time, and following a humiliating domestic season that saw all three trophies won by foreign teams, the game was dead, better everyone just spend their money buying replica shirts of EPL teams.
The problem with that reasoning was that it just weren't true. The national team had spent a longtime together and it was time for new faces. But anyone who had actually been to an SLeague would have told you that the excitement on the field wasn't being passed on to the public.
But there was a sea change occurring. Not in the glare of publicity or from the vision of some PR outfit charging mega bucks by the hour. This sea change was taking place where all sea changes take place. Be it hip hop, punk rock or Abba revival bands any meaningful cultural shift happens on the street and that was what was happening in Singapore.
Some fans, pissed off at the lack of initiative shown by them who were supposed to run the game and by media treating the game as a piss take, decided to do something about it. Decided that a strategic plan big on MBA terminology but low on nuts and bolts was never gonna be enough to change the say people looked at football in their own back yard.
So they kicked up a racket. On the terraces. They decided what Singapore had in football terms was something Singaporeans should be proud of. Stick your Rooney, Lampard and Gerrard where the sun don't shine, they wanted to be proud of Harris, Shahril and Fazrul.
Mindsets are as difficult to change as bandwagons are easy to follow. Unfortunately there is no bandwagon yet in Singapore football but there are a few pioneers seeking to raise the tempo for the Lions something like 30 of them will be travelling to Kunming next week to see their boys take on China in their opening World Cup Qualifier.
No matter the result, they were there and they were doing their bit for their team and country. Which is more than can be said for the keyboard tossers wasting cyberspace with their turgid negativity.
A few stories today indicating Manahan Stadium in Solo could host Indonesia's opening World Cup Qualifier against Bahrain on 6 September.
Apparently the Bung Karno Stadium in Jakarta may not be ready because it is being prepared for the SEA Games in November.
The Bahrain comes at the end of Leberan, a major holiday here so anybody wanting to make arrangements to travel to Solo would need to book early but of course there is no early decision on the cards.
It is only the opening gambit in Indonesian football's latest new dawn but at a press conference earlier this evening the new look PSSI announced that top flight football would comprise of two divisions of 16 clubs each while the second tier would have four divisions of 12 teams each.
Indonesia can't seem to decide whether it wants to have a single top flight featuring the 18 best teams which makes sense from a purely footballing point of view or a twin division which would feature more dead wood than a lumberjack camp but allows clubs to spend less on travel costs as it would be divided regionally.
The AFC apparently demand a single division, hence the Indonesia Super League which was introduced in 2008/2009 and the PSSI will put their proposal to the body early next month to see if they have changed their minds.
This is a possible break down but don't read too much into it. Persik appear in both lists while Persita are in the second tier and Persikota in the top tier which doesn't make immediate sense;

Metrotvnews.com, Palembang: Menteri Pemuda dan Olahraga Andi Mallarangeng, mengatakan pelaksanaan SEA Games ke-26 di Palembang, Sumatra Selatan, diharapkan mampu membangkitkan kejayaan Kerajaan Sriwijaya.
"Kerajaan Sriwijaya sangat termasyhur pada zamannya, terkenal seantero Asia Tenggara," kata Andi di Palembang, Rabu (24/8), saat buka bersama dengan jajaran Pemprov Sumsel dan masyarakat daerah.
Menurut Andi, untuk membangkitkan kejayaan Kerajaan Sriwijaya, perlu bersama menyukseskan SEA Games. "Masyarakat Palembang dan Sumsel umumnya mesti bahu membahu menyukseskan perhelatan akbar olahraga tingkat Asia Tenggara itu," ujar Andi.
Menpora mengemukakan, banyak cara menyukseskan SEAG itu, seperti berperilaku ramah kepada tamu dan memberikan pertolongan saat mereka membutuhkan bantuan. Tindakan tersebut sederhana, tapi sangat membantu menyukseskan SEA Games, kata dia lagi.
Dia menjelaskan, nanti akan datang sekitar 10 ribu tamu asing ke Palembang yang tidak hanya untuk bertanding atau menonton pertandingan. "Mereka juga nantinya akan berbelanja cendera mata dan mencicipi makanan khas Palembang," ujar Andi.
Andi menambahkan, bukan hanya saat perhelatan olahraga akbar itu mereka datang, tapi yang menjadi sasaran SEA Games dengan kedatangan tamu tersebut nantinya mereka akan datang lagi setelah merasakan keramahtamahan masyarakat daerah ini.
"Kelak, mereka akan mengajak keluarga datang kembali ke Palembang untuk menikmati beragam kenangan manis yang mereka pernah rasakan ketika menghadiri SEA Games," ujarnya.
Gubernur Sumsel Alex Noerdin mengatakan, dukungan penuh masyarakat daerahnya tentu menjadi kunci kesuksesan SEAG di Palembang itu. Meski sarana prasarana yang dibangun serba megah, tapi dukungan masyarakat tetap sangat dibutuhkan untuk kesuksesan SEAG.
SEA Games ke-26 di Indonesia, 11-22 November 2011, rencananya acara pembukaan dan penutupan akan digelar di Palembang. Namun untuk pelaksanaan pertandingan, selain di Palembang juga dilakukan di Jakarta sebagai tuan rumah bersama.(Ant/ICH)

0akan mampu menjadi tuan rumah pekan olahraga se-Asia Tenggara ini.
Sebanyak tujuh arena yang sedang di bangun ditinjau Andi beserta Gubernur Sumatra Selatan Alex Noerdin, seperti venues menembak, ski air, panjat tebing, sepatu roda, tenis, aquatik, dan atletik.
Menurut Andi, dirinya optimistis Palembang sanggup menjadi tuan rumah Sea Games. Dirinya juga berharap agar pekerjaan pembangunan venus ini tidak terganggu dengan libur lebaran, sehingga dapat menyelesaikan target akhir September semua venues telah selesai dan siap melakukan ujicoba.
"Saya berharap agar Jakabaring Sport City ini mampu menjadi Senayan kedua, dan mampu menjadi contoh bagi provinsi dan daerah lainnya, baik kota maupun kabupaten agar dapat membangun sarana olahraga sehingga dapat memajukan olahraga di daerah tersebut," jelasnya. (TT/OL-04)

TINJAU — Menpora Andi Mallarangeng didampingi Gubernur Sumsel H Alex Noerdin dan sejumlah kepala dinas, meninjau Venues Panjat Tebing Jakabaring Sport City Palembang, Rabu (24/8).
Berita Terkait
PALEMBANG, SRIPO — Menpora Andi Alfian Mallarangeng memastikan cabang panjat tebing SEA Games 2011 tetap akan digelar di Palembang, Sumatera Selatan, meskipun pengerjaan tempat pertandingannya baru mencapai 63 persen.
Andi menegaskan hal itu setelah meninjau langsung ke Komplek Olahraga Jakabaring (Jakabaring Sport City/JBC), Palembang, Rabu (24/8) sore, didampingi oleh Gubernur Sumsel H Alex Noerdin, Kepala PU Cipta Karya Sumsel Rizal Abdullah, dan Wakil Direktur II Inasoc H Muddai Madang.
“Panjat tebing tetap akan dipertandingkan di Palembang. Pemasangan rangka baja sudah selesai semua, dan tinggal dipasang panel-panel saja. Pengerjaan berikutnya tidak sulit lagi. Nanti pada akhir September semua pengerjaan ditargetkan telah selesai,” ujar Andi.
Menurut dia, adanya kabar pemindahaan pertandingan beberapa cabang olahraga di Palembang ke Jakarta, tidak perlu ditanggapi secara serius oleh Pemprov Sumsel.
“Tidaklah dipindah-pindahkan. Apalagi Sumsel sudah bekerja keras membangun suatu komplek olahraga yang begitu megah, seperti Jakabaring Sport City ini. Ini patut dicontoh oleh provinsi lain,” kata dia lagi.
Dengan demikian, Palembang, Sumatera Selatan, tetap akan menggelar 24 cabang olaraga (cabor). Tidak ada satu pun cabor yang akan dipindahkan ke Jakarta.
Pernyataan ini sekaligus mementahkan statemen Ketua Panitia Pelaksana Pertandingan Panjat Dinding Hendricus Mutter. Ia mengusulkan cabor ini dipindahkan ke Jakarta dengan alasan Palembang belum siap.
Ia pun optimistis beberapa venues SEA Games yang masih dikerjakan dapat selesai tepat waktu, meskipun ajang SEA Games tinggal 2,5 bulan lagi.
Venues itu di antaranya lapangan tembak, kolam renang indoor, stadion atletik, lapangan sepatu roda, ski air, arena bisbol dan sofbol, dan panjat tebing.
“Saya optimistis semua akan selesai, apalagi para pekerja rela tidak pulang ke kampung halamannya untuk merayakan Lebaran,” ujar dia.
Main Tenis
Andi tiba di JBC pukul 13.45. Ia disambut Gubernur Sumsel H Alex Noerdin. Andi melihat semua venues di komplek JBC tanpa ada yang terlewatkan. Termasuk Wisma Atlet. Saat di venue tenis, Andi Mallarangeng melakukan ujicoba. Ia beberapa kali memberikan servis dan menyambut bola yang dilemparkan kepala Dinas PU Cipta Karya Sumsel H Rizal Abdullah.
“Sayang saya berpakaian batik. Kalau pakaian kaos dan celana pendek, mungkin mainnya bisa lama. Lapangan tenis ini mantap dan bagus,” kata Andi, yang disambut Alex Noerdin dengan tersenyum.
Pertama di Indonesia
Pada keterangan persnya, Andi Mallarangeng memuji kelengkapan kawasan Jakabaring menjadi area sport city dan Sumsel menjadi model percontohan bagi 32 Provinsi di Indonesia.
Bahkan, walikota/bupati diimbau untuk menyediakan lahan dan secara bertahap membangun kawasan olahraga terpadu.
“Kita mengharapkan, provinsi lain di Indonesia mencontoh apa yang dilakukan Sumsel dengan komplek olahraga yang terpadu dalam satu kawasan sehingga menjadi Ruang Terbuka hijau yang baru. Jakarta belum ada, seperti di Jakabaring ini,” katanya.
Saat ditanya soal dana penyelengaraan SEA Games, Andi mengatakan sudah tidak masalah lagi karena saat ini sudah diusulkan di APBN Perubahan sebesar Rp 700 miliar. Selain, sumber dana juga ada berasal dari sponsor yang sudah banyak masuk dan dari penjualan tiket serta penjualan souvenir.
Di akhir penjelasannya, Andi berjanji akan kembali datang ke Palembang di September mendatang untuk memantau kesiapan venues dan menyaksikan beberapa cabor yang sedang ujicoba venues.
“Saya melihat, Sumsel sudah siap,” katanya.

Just to recap. There are two Persebayas! Persebaya who played in the Divisi Utama and Persebaya 1927 who played in the short lived Liga Primer Indonesia. The latter have appointed former Persijap & Minangkabau coach Divaldo Alves to replace Aji Santoso who will work with the Indonesia Under 23 team ahead of the SEA Games.
Persebaya 1927 also suggest they are interested in signing former England international Lee Hendrie from Bandung. Hendrie's current club are said to be merging with Persiba so their future remains unclear.
Will the Persebaya clubs merge? That remains to be seen...
It was an important match for both nations as they prepare to take on
It took the Lions until the 11th minute to seemingly fine a loophole in the Thai defence, when Qiu Li found an unmarked Shahril down the left flank only to see his delivery cleared by the Thai backline.
The home side were pressing Qiu Li high up the pitch and a few mistimed tackles saw the Home United forward flat on the ground, grovelling in pain
As the half wore on, the Thais started coming into the game with captain Datsakorn Thonglao and Surat Sukha stringing the passes in the middle of the park.
The Thais had a good opportunity with 24 minutes on the clock when Datsakorn looked up and sent a cheeky lob that seemed destined for the top left corner until Izwan Mahbud leapt into the air and claimed it with authority.
Two minutes later, the Thais put together their best move of the game when Apipoo Suntornpanavej dinked a long ball into the path of Sompong Soleb down the right who sent a teasing grounder into the box, only to see an oncoming
The second half started with both sides making a string of substitutions with Shahdan Sulaiman, Shukor Zailan and Lionel Lewis coming on for Qiu Li, Mustafic Fahrudin and Izwan Mahbud respectively.
Coach Avramovic was left fuming when a dubious offside call by the linesman left Shahril Ishak seething, after Shi Jia Yi played a brilliant ball to put Aleksandar Duric through before he squared it to an unmarked Shahril who drilled it into the net with much aplomb.
On 70 minutes, the newest member of the squad, Hafiz Rahim came on for Jia Yi and immediately showcased his fine dribbling skills on numerous occasions to trouble Thai backline which had to give away two yellow cards for late tackles on the nippy Geylang United winger.
As the match moved towards the final ten minutes, the partisan crowd at the Rajamangala National Stadium were treated to some exciting end-to-end stuff as Isa Halim and Ruzaini Zainal played a neat one-two before releasing Hafiz who sent a thunderbolt towards goal, only to see the Thai goalie, Sintaweechai Hathairattanakool palm the ball away for a corner-kick.
Lionel Lewis who managed to go through the entire second-half with no complications on his recent groin injury was called into action when he made two wonderful saves to deny the home side a last gasp winner.
Speaking at the post-match press conference, coach Avramovic said: “This is not the first time

In the last season just finished or half finished, god Indonesian football can be hard to put in a nutshell at times, the pleasant city of Malang boasted three football clubs. Arema in the top flight Indonesia Super League, Persema in that upstart Liga Primer Indonesia and Persekam in the second tier of the official stuff.
Anyway it looks like Persekam don't want to be part of the Indonesian football's latest new dawn and they will become an amateur side.

PERSATUAN Bola Tampar Malaysia (Mava) telah mendapat 'lampu hijau' daripada Majlis Olimpik Malaysia (MOM) untuk bertanding pada Sukan SEA di Indonesia, November depan.
Ini kerana Mava telah berjaya menyelesaikan hutang dengan badan induk berkenaan.
Setiausaha Kehormat Mava, Lim Poh Hong berkata, persatuan itu telah melunaskan hutang iaitu perbelanjaan tertunggak untuk Sukan SEA 2009 di Laos sebanyak RM51,000 kepada MOM pada awal bulan ini.
"Mava sedang bersiap sedia untuk menghadapi Sukan SEA. Kami akan menghantar dua pasukan untuk bola tampar pantai lelaki dan dua untuk bola tampar pantai wanita.
"Bagi acara bola tampar dewan pula, hanya pasukan lelaki sudah disahkan penyertaan.
"Kami masih berbincang sama ada hendak mengambil bahagian dalam kategori wanita atau tidak," kata Poh Hong.
Beliau berkata, Mava menyasarkan satu pingat bagi pasukan bola tampar pantai lelaki dan bola tampar pantai wanita pada temasya Sukan SEA kali ini.
Bagi acara bola tampar lelaki dewan pula, beliau berkata, Mava sekadar menetapkan sasaran hingga ke peringkat separuh akhir.
Poh Hong menambah, pasukan bola tampar pantai lelaki negara kini berada di Taiwan untuk menyertai Terbuka Taiwan sebagai sebahagian persiapan menghadapi Sukan SEA.
"Pasukan wanita pula baru saja pulang dari menyertai satu kejohanan di London.
"Walaupun kalah dengan pasukan-pasukan ternama dunia, mereka telah menunjukkan prestasi yang memuaskan," katanya.

PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian Golf Association (MGA) is only targeting a modest silver medal target for both the men’s and women’s teams in the upcoming Jakarta SEA Games in November.
MGA vice president Low Teck San has admitted that Phillipines, Thailand and Indonesia will be the ones to beat and getting silver is just a realistic target.
“As of now we have yet to finalise our team for the Games.
“We will only announce the team at the end of September,” said Teck San after the venue launch of the 100Plus Malaysian Junior Open at the Saujana Golf & Country Club yesterday.
“For the men, so far we only have Gavin Kyle Green and Mohd Arie Irawan Ahmad Fauzi who are committed in participating in the event.”
“We are also aware that Kelly Tan has an hectic schedule in the US but we’re trying to persuade her to play in the Games as well because that will surely give our women’s team an edge,” said Teck San.
Kelly is the top national junior golfer in the country and is currently training in Florida where she competes in amateur tournaments there.
Meanwhile, 110 junior golfers from over 10 countries including Philippines, Singapore, Indonesia, India and Taiwan will be participating in the Malaysian Junior Open which begins from Sept 12-15.
In the boys’ event, last year’s overall category runners-up Jeremiah Kim will lead the Malaysian challenge while Isza Fariza Ismail will be tasked with winning the girls’ title in the absence of Kelly who has opted out due to a hectic schedule.
However, Isza who finished third in the Under-16 category last year will find it tough to win as defending champion Sarah Ababa of the Philippines is also competing.
Sarah is bidding to become the first golfer in the tournament’s history to retain the overall crown.

PETALING JAYA: The SEA Games organisers have surprisingly dropped the team events from the table tennis competitions in Jakarta for the first time but it has not dampened seasoned campaigner Beh Lee Wei’s desire to achieve a sweet swansong.
The 28-year-old Lee Wei is shelving plans for retirement to make her seventh consecutive SEA Games appearance for the country and she is hoping to mark it with a silver lining come November.
With the team events scrapped, the Table Tennis Association of Malaysia (TTAM) are only looking at Lee Wei and Ng Sock Khim, the Korat SEA Games silver medallist in 2007, to shoulder the challenge in the women’s events.
Sock Khim, who missed the previous SEA Games in Laos, went for a back operation recently and is expected to start training next month.
The two male paddlers for the SEA Games are Mohd Shakirin Ibrahim and Chai Kian Beng.
Having won only the bronze medals so far, Lee Wei will be more than happy to have a silver lining in her seventh SEA Games campaign.
“I thought about plans to retire after the Commonwealth Games last year but there are no good players coming up to challenge me and Sock Khim at the moment. I still can play and the country still needs my services for another SEA Games.
“This sport has been my passion and I can’t just say no,” said Lee Wei, who won her 11th national crown last December after prevailing over Sock Khim in the final.
Her decision to go for another fling at the SEA Games is also prompted by a desire to pursue a dream to play in the Olympics.
“I want to try to qualify for the London Olympics through the Asian qualifiers next year,” added Lee Wei, who played a pivotal role in helping Malaysia to finish with three bronze medals in Laos two years ago.
The hunt for medals this time will be limited to the five individual events but Lee Wei felt the better chances lies in the women’s doubles and mixed doubles.
Lee Wei is likely to partner Shakirin for the mixed doubles and she is hoping they can better their bronze medal showing from Laos.
Her hopes of a breakthrough outing is also boosted by news filtering out across the Causeway that world No. 2 Feng Tianwei is the only star in the Singaporean team while the others are second stringers.
This is due to the commitments of the Singapore seniors like Wang Yuegu and Li Jiawei, world No. 7 and No. 20, having to focus on improving their rankings in the world circuit ahead of the Olympics next year.
“Singapore, as usual, are the favourites when it comes to the SEA Games. They won six out of the seven gold medals at the last SEA Games.
“I heard that Singapore are not sending their first team but the ones coming, I’m sure, are not pushovers,” she added.
The last time Malaysia captured gold at the SEA Games was in Manila in 1991 through the women’s doubles pair of Phua Bee Sim-Chong Choi Thing.

KONTAN/FRANSISKUS SIMBOLON Sejumlah masyarakat Anti Rokok berunjuk rasa menuju gedung Mahkamah Agung, Jakarta, Rabu (9/3/2011). Dalam aksinya selain mensosialisasikan bahaya merokok mereka meminta agar memberi sanksi tegas kepada warga yang merokok di tempat umum.
TERKAIT:
JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com — Jelang perhelatan olahraga terbesar se-Asia Tenggara, Kepala Dinas Pariwisata dan Kebudayaan DKI Jakarta Arie Budhiman akan memantau lokasi-lokasi SEA Games XXVI dari bahaya asap rokok. Hal ini juga berkaitan dengan Peraturan Gubernur Nomor 88 Tahun 2010 tentang Kawasan Dilarang Merokok.
"Kami akan jadi tuan rumah SEA Games. Peraturan ini jadi pendukung utama untuk kesehatan atlet, pendukung, dan lain-lain," kata Arie ketika jumpa pers mengenai Kawasan Dilarang Merokok di Balaikota, Jakarta, Senin (22/8/2011).
Dia mengungkapkan, dari sektor pariwisata, pihaknya akan melakukan pelayanan yang terbaik untuk tamu, khususnya atlet yang akan bertanding nanti. Selain itu, pengawasan akan tersebar di berbagai venue, hotel, dan juga tempat hiburan yang kemungkinan besar akan dikunjungi oleh atlet.
"Kami telah melakukan survei. Berdasarkan hasil survei ini menghasilkan indikasi positif. Kami akan fokus di hotel-hotel yang menjadi fasilitas SEA Games," ungkap Arie.
Dia berharap bahwa pada saatnya akan ada kemajuan yang signifikan dari pemberlakuan peraturan ini. Survei ini pun dilakukan untuk mengetahui sejauh mana implementasi Kawasan Dilarang Merokok tersebut. Dengan demikian, 20 venue SEA Games beserta dengan tempat penginapan atlet ditetapkan sebagai Kawasan Dilarang Merokok.
Pihak yang bekerja sama dengan Disparbud DKI untuk menyukseskan peraturan ini adalah BPLHD DKI dan lembaga swadaya masyarakat Swisscontact Indonesia Foundation. Nantinya juga akan dilakukan pemasangan tanda pemberitahuan yang menyatakan kawasan tersebut, termasuk KDM.
Di masing-masing venue dan hotel tempat penginapan atlet akan terpasang poster atau tanda dilarang merokok di kawasan ini, termasuk di KDM.
"Artinya para atlet, official, bahkan tamu-tamu lainnya dilarang merokok di hotel dan venue. Begitu juga dengan para penonton di tempat pertandingan, harus menghargai kebijakan dengan tidak merokok saat pertandingan berlangsung," jelasnya.
Rencananya, di setiap venue dan hotel akan dipasang detektor asap rokok sehingga ketika paparan asap rokok sudah tinggi, detektor tersebut akan berbunyi. Saat ini baru Hotel Atlet Century yang sudah memasang alat tersebut, tempat lainnya akan menyusul.

I love the way how what would in England be sensational stories here become a throwaway comment in another much less interesting story.
Deltras of course have a new coach. Jorg Steinbrunner from Germany. This run of the mill story says that Deltras, nicknamed The Lobster (singular), are holding trials and a couple of doezen players have joined up.
The article mentions the signings Deltras have already made plus another couple of locals they maybe interested. Then, right towards the end, the club manager, not the 24 year old girl from last season, the manager suggests that Singapore international striker Noh Alam Shah would be joining the club!
In the news hungry English media where every nuance and utterance is forensically covered with the proverbial fine tooth comb this story would halt the presses. NAS is a big name, one of the biggest in South East Asia. That he is being linked with a move away from Arema, one of the biggest clubs in Indonesia, to nearby Deltras surely is worth more than just a couple of lines in another story?
Anyway I have tried confirming the story but no luck yet. We shall wait and see!
Holding a 3-0 lead going into the 2nd leg of their Singapore Cup Quarter Final against Myanmar side Okkthar United, Hougang United were made to fight all the way as the Myanmar team gave them a scare or two. Fortunately for the daftly nicknamed Cheetahs, Jordan Webb's goal right on half time gave them some breathing space but their 3-1 loss was enough to see them into the semis where they join Albirex Niigata, who defeated them in the League Cup Final, and Home United.
Tonight sees Etoile and Gombak United play their 2nd leg with the Frenchies holding a slender 1-0 lead.
Phaitoon Thiabma, who enjoyed a couple of spells with Persijap in the Indonesia Super League, has been called up by new Thai coach Winnie Schaefer ahead of their opening World Cup Qualifiers.
Missing from the squad is the Thai Premier League's Sarayut Chaikamdee. I watched Thailand during last years AFF Cup and often felt their game lacked its normal fluidity by having the relativley static Sarayut as a target man.
Good to see Sompong Soleb, another former Thai Port striker, called up.
More analysis of the squad can be found on Thai Fussball.

This comes from a local tabloid...my language skills aren't good enough to tell whether they are confirmed or just negotiations or rumours. The presence of a company name in the original, not replicated here, suggests they are more than confirmed but I await others before coming down either way.
A couple of geographically interesting ones!
Persiraja & Aceh United - makes sense, both from Banda Aceh
PSMS & Bintang Medan - makes sense, both from Medan and PSMS have the brand recognition
Pro Titan & Medan Chiefs - makes sense, both have same owner
Persik & Minangkabau - East Java and West Sumatra? To be fair the city of Padang, home to Minangkabau, probably couldn't afford two teams
Persijap & Bogor Raya - Central Java and West Java? Greater Bogor already has Persikabo...
Persiba Bantul & Bandung - Yogyakarta Special Area and West Java! Bandung had to merge with someone. The city is Persib blue 100%.
Persis Solo and Solo - makes sense. Indonesia needs the city of Solo represented in the top flight
Perspiasi & Batavia Union - interesting one. Batavia Union originally spawned from Persitara but played many home games in Bekasi, West Java.
Persebaya & Persebaya 1927 - no explanation needed
PSS & Real Mataram - makes sense, both from Yogyakarta Special Area
PSIS/PPSM & Semarang United - SU will have to join forces with someone...but who with?
PSBS Biak & Cendrawasih Papua - makes sense, both in Papua though distances there are great
Perseden & Bali De Vata - makes sense, both on Bali
Persibom & Manado United - makes sense, both from North Sulawesi
If anyone knows more then feel free to let me know...
Now safely ensconsed in the Deltras hot seat, new coach Jorg Steinbrunner, formerly of Woodlands Wellington, Sengkang Punggol, Etoile and Medan Chiefs, is wasting no time bringing in a couple of familiar faces.
Former Woodlands and Medan Chiefs Abdelhadi Laakkad is a Moroccan striker who scores goals, as opposed to Chamakh who is a Moroccan striker who gets pushed off the ball way too easily. Laakkad previously played with Jorg at Woodlands and Medan.
Another familiar face is Kevin Yann. The young French man first made an impression in last years Etoile team that won the SLeague and followed his German coach to Medan earlier this year.
Personally speaking I find
Take a look at this current season where perhaps three or four teams are serious title contenders. But look at the intriguing sub plots lower down the ladder. The resurgence of Hougang United, Geylang’s fine unbeaten ru, Etoile’s bounce back from the five point deduction, Balestier’s switch from cellar dweller to mid table, Tanjong Pagar’s youth and ability to give the big boys a run for their money.
And there’s more. Hougang fans attempting to create an atmosphere at SLeague games, young players making an impression on the national team, Harris’ growing maturity, Home United’s fine form, Jordan Webb making an impression, Fazrul Nawaz netting consistently.
I could go on but that will do for now.
The head of the Football Association of Singapore has decided that next season they will do more about attracting fans to games and he has set up a committee to find ways of doing this. I have no idea who is on this committee, I imagine a bunch of time servers and the usual faces who have their boats in the papers but I tell you who should be on any gob fest looking to revitalize
The lads behind Lions All The Way who have taken to following the Lions and giving them a bit of a cheer. United 4 United, a group of lads who have taken to following Hougang United and are trying to have a bit of a laugh at home and away games. The lads behind Bola Sepak and Liga Singapura plus the other bloggers who write at great length about a game all but ignored by the national media,
I guess though the panel will be stuffed with people who are called stake holders, a term which worries me. I guess it includes sponsors and let’s face it don’t they do a great job of both promoting the league and their products? There is a beer sponsor yet you can’t buy beer! One sponsor delights in giving away free ice cream! Hands up if free ice cream has ever enticed you to a football match? Seriously, until now they have contributed little, what makes us think they can do so in the future?
One suggestion to bring back the fans is to improve the quality of football as if all it takes is Harry Potter waving a wand! The football ain’t that bad and yes, there are dull games just as there are dull games in the English Premier League involving Singaporean’s favourite football teams,
Did you know the population of Tampines is reckoned to be 216,000? Bigger than the combined populations of Blackburn and Wigan in
You could say the same about Jurong, which doesn’t even have a team anymore, Geylang and Woodlands. Why are crowds so risible? What have the FA done about correcting the slide to anonymity? What have the clubs done to get out in the community? How do week day evening kick offs encourage kids to attend football matches?
Attracting more people to football matches in
Change the mindset and we’re on our way!
Local reports suggest former Philippines national team coach Simon McMenemy is in the frame for the Sriwijaya job.
The team from Palembang had appointed Kashadarti to run the team alongside veteran Keith Kayamba but now have realised K doesn't have the correct license.

Short on cash it looks like Manchester United will look to fans in Singapore to help pay off their debts.
United of course are the second biggest team in Singapore after Liverpool.
Persiba Balikpapan have signed Japanese striker Kenji Adichihara from Bontang. Kenji spent two years with the team about six hours up the road from Balikpapan and netted 30 goals in his time there despite the team struggling most of that time.
He will renew his productive strike partnership with Paraguayan striker Aldo Baretto who made the same journey last year and has decided to stay with the Honey Bears for one more season.
Kenji, who also played for Albirex Niigata in the SLeague, will replace Singaporean striker Khairul Amri whose season with Persiba was marred by injury. Just like his time with Tampines Rovers was marred by injury. Just like his time with Young Lions was marred by injury.
In fact given his unmistakable talent and his ability to spend long periods on the treatment table he would seem an ideal signing for Arsenal. And with him being forever injured they wouldn't even need a work permit!
Anyway, one Honey Bear tells me Amri may turn up next in Malaysia with Selangor! The season doesn't start there till January 2012, that should be long enough for him to recover, get injured and recover again!
Over 2,500 fans filled the Hougang Stadium last night to see Hougang United take on Myanmar National League team Okkthar United, coached by Singaporean Sivaji.
Hougang, unfortunately nicknamed The Cheetahs, won 3-0 but it was the Myanmar fans who stole the show apparently by bringing a football style atmosphere to a game in Singapore.
3-0 is pretty bloody convincing, a damned sight more convincing than Arsenal's pissy 1-0 they take to Italy next week so it's far to say Hougang are on course for a second Cup semi final. They of course reached the League Cup Final before succumbing to Albirex Niigata on pens.
Hougang's turn around this season, sorry but I can't call a football team Cheetahs unless they come from continental Europe and speak with their hands a lot, has been one of the stories of the season in a truly thrilling season in Lion City.
Results So Far
Tampines v Home 3-3
SAFFC v Albirex 0-0
Hougang v Okkthar 3-0
Gombak v Etoile (play today)
Menurut Setiausaha Kehormat MOM, Datuk Sieh Kok Chi, persatuan tersebut mempunyai baki hutang RM38,000 ketika beraksi di Sukan SEA Laos 2009 di bawah kategori B dan perlu menyelesaikannya secepat mungkin.
"Bagaimanapun saya telah dijanjikan oleh persatuan tersebut bahawa mereka akan menjelaskannya secepat mungkin, ini kerana jika mereka tidak melunaskan hutang tersebut peluang untuk beraksi di Sukan SEA Palembang 2011 mungkin tertutup," katanya ketika ditemui Utusan Malaysia di Wisma MOM, semalam.
"Jelasnya, selain petanque terdapat sukan lain misalnya bola tampar melalui Persatuan Bola Tampar Malaysia telah pun menyelesaikan hutangnya dengan badan itu, semalam," katanya.
Acara petanque menawarkan 11 pingat emas di Sukan SEA Palembang 2011.
Menurut Kok Chi, seramai 320 atlet negara kategori A dan 200 kategori B akan mengambil bahagian di Sukan SEA 2011 manakala tarikh akhir untuk semua persatuan menyenaraikan atlet mereka yang layak pada 25 September ini.
"Setakat ini acara yang belum menyenaraikan atlet mereka ialah akuatik, bola tampar, petanque, angkat berat dan olahraga, saya rasa tidak ada masalah untuk kesemua acara tersebut kecuali olahraga," katanya.
Sementara itu, Kok Chi turut mengumumkan bahawa, Presiden MOM, Tan Sri Tunku Imran Tuanku Ja'afar bakal mengisi jawatan Presiden Persekutuan Sukan Komanwel (CGF) menggantikan Michael Fennell yang bersara selepas 17 tahun memegang jawatan tersebut.
Tunku Imran memenangi jawatan tersebut tanpa bertanding selepas tidak dicabar oleh calon lain menjelang Perhimpunan Agung CGF yang akan diadakan di St Kitts, November ini.
Sebelum ini Tunku Imran memegang jawatan sebagai Naib Presiden CGF.
"Ia bakal memberi impak yang baik buat Malaysia berikutan jawatan tertinggi CGF disandang oleh Presiden MOM, Tunku Imran," kata Kok Chi.
