Foal play?

The Equestrian Association of Malaysia (EAM) adjourned its AGM indefinitely yesterday but it was reported by TV3 the leadership remained unchanged.

The forum section of http://www.equestrian.com.my/ may shed some light on the issue.

As it stands today, Datuk Seri Dr Jamaluddin Jarjis, who was supposed to relinquish his post in line with the Prime Minister's directive barring Ministers from holding any position in sports bodies in August last year, is still the EAM president. He was not re-appointed to the Cabinet following the elections.

Sports Minister, Datuk Ismail Sabri Yaakob, was a special guest at the AGM, announcing a grant of RM2 million for EAM. Olympic Council of Malaysia secretary Datuk Sieh Kok Chi was there as well.

Let me correct Jay Jay and Anonymous that Dato' Siah Kok Chee did attend the EAM AGM on 17 July as a representative of OCM. Apparently, it was agreed that problems in associations should be first referred to OCM before going to SC. Don't understand why Dato' Siah said he was'nt at the AGM?
