Sometimes, I wonder what kind of people we have running the sport bodies? For that matter, the people running the government, local / city councils, etc.
For example, the 'high performance sports centre' in UK. Why spend RM69m to refurbish the current building? (Scaled down from RM500m). What benefits will we really get from this project? Any Malaysian with common sense will know that you can't make an average athlete into a superstar no matter how good the sports facilities or the trainer is. This I learnt from Simon Cowell (American Idol judge) who said "I cannot make a mediocre singer into a superstar". You either have it or not. The money is better used to unearth potential stars and train these stars.
