Victory In My Naked Eyes

Lately, we were stuffed with loads of cases and stories revolving around how should a person or an organization behave in order to avoid defeat and sad ending. Some so called "pundits" had even resorted to name calling for the sake of putting "victory matters" above anything else.

When we re-think and gather ourselves back, it is only natural that human will do everything to achieve victory and success. In most workplace, some quarters have become the greatest liar of all in order to capture greatest height. In fact, These people will play the game of "2-face" for the benefit of their own.

Meanwhile, in the world of sports, unscrupulous athletes would even commit to drug- taking in ensuring that the desired victories are theirs.

However, one tend to forget that victories are much more sweeter if it is achieved with the experience of failing. For those who are skeptical about this statement, just look around and you would see many "failures" or "no hopers" have become world-beater by now. Dr Mahathir, Safee Salee, Lee Chong Wei and the late Mahatma Gandhi, to name a few, are just people who had difficulties in the past, where can be regarded as failure by some but these people pull themselves together and succeed at the end of the day.

Thus, being a failure is not a problem but failing to identify a problem does cost a huge problem. Anyhow, we are really measured by "how we come back after being hit by a train and not how we hit the train".

When Indonesia received a drubbing...

I was a kind of shock when I heard about our two closest rivals in ASEAN soccer, Indonesia and Singapore received a thrashing from Asia's heavyweights, Bahrain and Iraq respectively. With a drubbing of 10 - 0 and 7 - 1, it triggers an alarm to us that ASEAN are still lagging behind, particularly in term of modern football's tactical approach.

For an instance, Singapore has been doing many things to improve the standard of its national team all these years, be it hiring a foreign coach, the set up of its own professional league etc. However, it seems that the efforts were not good enough to be as a force to reckon with in Asia.

Indonesia, on the other hand, is rather a yo-yo performer. At times, they can perform like a man-possessed team but they tend to fumble at a big stage. They, like Singapore, have taken several steps to strenghten its national team (naturalising a foreign player as theirs is one of the most notable steps) but still, the desired result is not coming in.

In the nutshell, Malaysia is rather better than them as our Harimau Muda boys were not that bad when they met the likes of Syria, Bahrain and Japan the other day. No drubbing like 10 - 0 or something and we had even forced the opposing teams to dig deep before they were able to beat our beloved boys.

No wonder we are the reigning ASEAN champs...
