BDNOC might be sanctioned by law?

Read this. THIS IS REAL GOOD.


"The same Olympic Charter under by-law on Rule 45-9 (the Olympic Games) mentions that if the council withdraws from participating in any Olympic Games without the consent of the IOC Executive Board, the council would end up being sanctioned or measures such as fines will be imposed. Now that the country has no athletes in Beijing Olympics, there is a possibility that sanctions will be made, resulting in Brunei not being able to participate in the Southeast Asian (SEA) Games and other international tournaments in the future.The worst case scenario is that the sultanate will be kicked out of the IOC, though any decisions regarding the matter will only be made after the Olympics come to a close on Aug 24." -brunei times.



Shudder. Sanctioned? I don't know if BT is doing this to increase newspaper sales or watev but i don't care. Doesn't it frighten you as a citizen of brunei that the national olympic council might be sanctioned?? This whole thing...their explanations are ridiculous. hah. Don't just release such things to save your own ass. And rano is right. A press conference might just make things better.

I would want to be in that press conference and bombard them with questions (and stones and tissue rolls and tennis balls...... and golf balls or just swing that golf club at them). really. as a mere rakyat the press release or apology does not satisfy me one bit. Lets see what will be in tommorow's papers/news. There better be a better excuse. hah!!

Blame game.

Its heating up. wuu. I am with everybody else. Stop playing the blame game. And i agree...this is an embarassing moment. Grown ups shouldn't play blaming games. Don't be egoistic enough to admit your mistake. and yess. there should be ample time for training kan with the four year gap. Explain what they have been doing in 4 years please. Don't make us say maju sukan untuk negara for nothing.

i want more. internet bashing isn't enough.

Failed to register? wth happened?!

Brunei excluded from 2008 Games Olympics Bird's nest

Beijing - The International Olympic Committee has excluded Brunei from the Beijing Games after the South East Asian country failed to register any of its athletes.

The Olympics competitive action in Beijing begins on Saturday.

Brunei had until midnight ahead of Friday's ceremony, which started at 1245 BST, but missed the deadline.

"It is a great shame and very sad for the athletes who lose out," an IOC spokeswoman said.
Brunei's absence means that only 204 countries will compete at the Olympics, which officially started on Friday.

The IOC's Emmanuelle Moreau said in a statement: "The IOC tried up until the last minute to have them register, but to no avail."

The Brunei athletes involved are 15-year-old swimmer Maria Grace Koh and shot putter Mohammed Yazid Yatimi Yusof. -- Courtesy of BBC


Why did they fail to register? unlike rano who thinks there might be a good reason for it... i am not satisfied and demand a public explanation to thousands of olympic enthusiast. This is dissapointing. heh. There is a long way until brunei to grace the olympics huh. the opening ceremony was awesome but too much. Too much people down there. It annoys me. Besides the commentator kept on saying that 'darussalam was excluded from the olympics'. Annoying. awu I don't do sports. but atleast I watch. THIS IS DISSAPOINTING. atleast last time, even though there were only one or two athletes...there were brunei athletes. and i thought Brunei's sport is getting better and better recently.

out. My first bio lecture in a week. i am pretty damn happy at last there is Bio.
