Victor68 Turbocharged August 20, 2017 Share August 20, 2017 Singapore government is not interested in sport. Look at the TV and newspapers, how much coverage on SEA, the ELP received more coverage. Look at our young lion, coached by ang moh, how much we paid him? Would he be able to turn our boys to even be close to Malaysian? The Malaysian team is coached by their own local and they played soccer, we didn't. ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiario 5th Gear August 20, 2017 Share August 20, 2017 Singapore government is not interested in sport. Look at the TV and newspapers, how much coverage on SEA, the ELP received more coverage. Look at our young lion, coached by ang moh, how much we paid him? Would he be able to turn our boys to even be close to Malaysian? The Malaysian team is coached by their own local and they played soccer, we didn't. do not be surprise if the Malaysian coach gets paid more than the Singapore ang moh coach. it is already a fact that players in the Malaysian league are paid better than players in the sleague. it is also quite well know that many local players in the sleague are just full time professional in name but actually semi-professional with sidelines such as drivers, delivery riders etc. Below is a quote from FAS and it tells you how much we are spending as compared to the others. The worst part? I do not know how much of this funding is spent on administrative officers in the FAS rather than on the players, coaches. "Although the $9.7 million we get annually makes us one of the highest-funded Singapore NSAs (National Sports Association), it unfortunately cannot compare to what our neighbours are getting For example: Indonesia gets $112 million annually; Vietnam $60 million; Thailand $52 million; and Malaysia $35 million." Remember the recent saga regarding the marathoner who complained that employers/officers in the SNOC are better paid than the sportsman? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor68 Turbocharged August 21, 2017 Share August 21, 2017 i dont know, but i cannot image we compare our funding with Indonesia and Malaysia. i am quite sure they both have a bigger setup and overhead. as to how much the fund actually goes to the player, this is something FAS must disclose since they are using public fund. I am sad to see no major shake up of FAS after so many years. we are already at the bottom, nothing else can be worse to make real change. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ender Hypersonic August 21, 2017 Author Share August 21, 2017 (edited) This Quah family can swim. Don't know if the two sisters are sibling to the other male Quah who was in the last Olympics swimming? Amazing is this Quah Jin Wen just won gold and broke national record in an earlier swimmjng event, and within the hour, won the relay with her team.
